English Tutor Springwood, NSW
Support young people in their individual approach to encourage self-understanding, self-awareness and self-belief. Quite recently, I was diagnosed with a disorder which affects how I process information. I didn't know this going through adolescence, but I remember the struggle and feeling limited in what was/wasn't achievable. It's important to…

I believe the most important role an english tutor plays is to establish a friendly relationship with the student. This makes learning more engaging and achievable. My previous tutoring experience has shown me that students learn best when they are engaged more personally. For example, relating concepts to the hobbies of a student allows them to…

Explain concepts to students that they do not understand. Fill in the gaps that they have not been able to grasp at school in the classroom. By explaining topics and concepts to the students they obtain confidence and that in turn enhances their ability to progress in the subject they are experiencing difficulty in. Tutoring is the bridge to…

I believe the most important things an english tutor can do for a student are to be friendly and make sure they feel welcome. It's also important to make sure the student is understanding the content and if they aren't to reiterate the points or try to teach them in another way. My strengths as a tutor are that I am highly organised and prepared,…

For me, the most important things an english tutor can do for a student is to set aside the necessary time and effort aside for each session. This is vital when helping the student to maintain their motivation and dedication to their work. Time management and the ability to plan each session; (some students may find it difficult to sort out for…

The most important thing for an english tutor to do is to make sure the student can feel confident, making the subject enjoyable to learn, rather than stressful and disheartening. I try to understand what part they are struggling with, so I can help them understand, rather than learn rote answers. So this means I'm patient, and a good…

I can be there for a student and reassure them that human brains are sometimes complicated but once you take down the barriers to learning, then you can really take off. It's alright to be confused, it's a sign you're thinking. You're almost there, and if we talk about it and try some simpler examples, then it will all fall into place. Since 2019…

To bring students to the truth, help them critically think, give them confidence in their personhood and to plant a real desire and love for learning. I'm good at analogies and explaining things in different ways depending on whom I'm speaking with. I'm also of a relaxed personality and so won't put unnecessary pressures on the…

I think it's important for an english tutor to understand their students educational needs and to help them learn how to apply themselves in the most effective way. The student should be happy with their education and the way their progressing in their subjects. The students need to feel comfortable enough with their tutor to ask for help, and…

Inside SpringwoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Chloe focused on reading comprehension and practiced counting activities using her workbook.

In Year 9, Alexia reviewed multiplying and dividing algebraic equations as well as simplifying these expressions in preparation for an upcoming test.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ethan worked through financial maths by calculating tax, Medicare levy, and determining taxable income and tax refunds using real-world examples.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 Maths, a student struggled to keep track of sign conventions when solving algebraic expressions; as one tutor noted, "careful with which method to use for addition/subtraction and multiplication." This often led to confusion in multi-step problems.

In Year 11 Financial Maths, incomplete formula recall and lack of organized notes made it hard for another student to calculate taxable income or the Medicare levy—especially under test conditions.

Meanwhile, a primary learner's tendency to avoid writing out working due to fear of making mistakes meant errors with letter formation and sight words lingered longer than necessary, slowing their reading progress.

Recent Achievements

A Springwood tutor recently noticed some genuine progress across different year levels. During a high school maths session, Isabelle, who previously hesitated with financial maths problems, showed real persistence and was able to work through perimeter and area questions for various shapes like trapeziums and cylinders with increasing accuracy.

Tariq, another high school student, moved from needing step-by-step help with percentages to accurately converting fractions into percentages by multiplying them by 100 on his own.

Meanwhile, in primary, Lillian not only spelled all her weekly words correctly but also explained her science project enthusiastically—something she used to shy away from sharing aloud.

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 Blue Mountains Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Springwood Public School.
