1. Patience as every student has different levels of needs 2. Positive words: having treated my student(s) as my younger brother(s)/sister(s), I only pursue the best to them even if circumstances (grades/scores/situations) are not in their favor, I have never used the word "fail". 3.) Balance love with goals. Hence, strictness. 4.) Aside from…

My teaching style is a self-made one which is partially inspired by my mom and my grandmother who were also teachers. * I try to simplify things as much as possible. In fact, i believe, the most difficult thing to do is to simplify something. * I always try to include real-life examples while explaining concepts which helps the students to…

Being able to understand how much a student can handle without overwhelming them, keeping lessons engaging so the student does not lose interest in the subject, and not demeaning a student for not understanding topics that may be conventionally 'easy' as it may likely discourage the student - these are a few of the most important principles an…

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to remember their position when they were at their student's age, the difficulties they faced while learning and sharing their experiences with passion to their students so they do not have to face such difficulties while learning. My strengths which may be beneficial as a tutor are…

A tutor should treat every students equally. Motivate slow learners and help them improve their learning. Patience is very important and never get angry repeating the same response for those who have trouble grasping the concept. Ready to lend ears to their queries. Make learning easier so that they can enjoy learning. I have always noticed myself…

A tutor must be patient as well as motivating for their students. They must be organised and have a well structured plan to support their students while still being open to their ideas and opinions. The tutors must also be good problem solvers in order to assist students with their studies. An effective tutor will always encourage independence and…

The most important things an english tutor can do for a student is to adapt to their learning style and to be supportive. Not every student can be taught using the same plan, and it is necessary to change when needed so that a student can be successful. If a student needs a range of scenarios so that they can clearly understand the topic, it…

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to offer them quality information and direct feedback on their work and areas of struggle. Additionally, a tutor should be humble such that they do not impose their own ideas onto a student, but rather walk alongside the student's journey of learning. This helps to establish a…

The most important thing an english tutor can give to his/her student is confidence. The confidence to know that whatever the problem is. There is no point trying to avoid it when if you work hard enough and practice enough with the right help, you will be able to solve problems on your own. Eventually the student does not need the tutor as a…

A tutor can provide personalised teaching to students that would not be available in a big classroom environment. A tutor also provides a safe space for students free of judgement where they can ask questions they might not get the chance to ask in class. Tutors also relate to the students and instill a level of confidence that truly improves…

One of the most important things an english tutor can do for a student is to provide understanding and gentle encouragement. It has been my experience that, if a student feels like the work is overwhelming and the teacher isn't listening, then the student will simply cease to care or give up.

To understand that not every brain is the same; people aren't 'one size fits all' when it comes to learning, and you can't expect to mould a student to fit your learning expectations. Instead, an english tutor needs to be flexible enough to fit the student's needs and goals. A depressed student will need something different from an autistic…

To me, one of the most important things an english tutor can do for a student is to be open and encouraging. Everyone (not only kids) gets embarrassed and scared to ask questions when they don't know what to do -- its our job to make sure they feel safe enough to ask so that they can fully grasp everything in their minds. If one of my students…

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to not spoon feed information, its the art of teaching the child to a degree where it helps them but doesnt answer the entire thing. Spoon feeding a student will only help temporarily and is very harmful. I believe my strengths are that i dont like to teach every child the same way.…

As a tutor is paid to improve a student's grades and so that's the underlying aim. But what a tutor should really do is teach a student how to learn better and improve. That means reminding them to proofread, read the criteria sheet before and after researching, and set up study plans that work with them (if that's palm cards, end of the week…

I believe the most significant thing a tutor can do is shape their teaching based on the students weaknesses to enhance their learning to the fullest. I also believe teaching the students to be independent in their students is significant as you cannot be their for them 24/7, and helping them develop proper individual study skills is crucial for a…

By doing this, a tutor can teach the students in a way that ensure the best possibility for success and growth.

Inside Springfield LakesTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Lochlann focused on the sine rule for solving non-right-angled triangles and explored applications of Lincoln's index and Simpson's diversity index in Biology.

Year 10 Sofia worked on simplifying ratios and discussed her preferred learning approaches to tailor future sessions.

For Year 8 Arjun, the lesson addressed algebraic operations with fractions and surds, while identifying gaps in foundational algebra that impact understanding of exponential graphs and circle equations.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Maths, over-reliance on calculators for simple arithmetic was noted: "I've suggested she rely less on the calculator for simple operations and exercise her mental arithmetic." This slowed progress in exam-style trigonometry and matrices tasks.

Meanwhile, a Year 9 student struggled to break down multi-step algebra problems, leading to stress and unfinished questions—especially when translating word problems into equations.

In Year 4 English, one student repeatedly asked if answers were correct before writing them down, which delayed independent practice and undermined confidence during spelling exercises. When answers changed between verbal and written formats, confusion persisted.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Springfield Lakes noticed Iris is now calmly tackling multi-step calculus problems after previously getting flustered and losing focus—she recently completed all her chosen exam questions with only minor hiccups.

In Year 9 maths, Hannah moved from confusion about bearings and navigation to independently solving complex sine rule questions by the end of her session.

Meanwhile, Caleb in primary school surprised his tutor by reading a new passage aloud without fidgeting or zoning out, then answering every comprehension question correctly and pronouncing newly learned words accurately.

Local Spots for Tutoring

If you'd prefer not to have lessons at home, tutoring can also take place at a local library—such as Redbank Plains Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Springfield Lakes State School.
