I believe that the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to always be there for them. As teachers/tutors, it is not all about educating them in core subjects but being there for them through rough times. We have all experienced what it is like to be a student and sometimes they go through some difficult situations and I…

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to be patient. One has to understand that every child has different ways of learning as well as the pace at which they learn. Therefore, a tutor should be perfectly fine with repeating a thing many times. A tutor should also be judgement free during the tutoring process as this…

I believe that tutoring for a student should be a safe zone space where they can make mistakes. Tutoring does not have the same pressue for a student that school can, as such it is important for an english tutor to be patient and adaptive when a student is struggling with a concept. A tutor should welcome mistakes as an opportunity to grow. I also…

Inside SwanbankTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Arya focused on matrix multiplication with step-by-step exercises and practiced general maths equations from Unit 4.

A Year 11 student, Summer, worked through CU questions in her maths book, tackling BODMAS problems—especially the importance of brackets—and explored spatial patterns.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 session with Grace covered understanding rates and gradients using practical examples and introduced straight line graphs for real-world applications.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 maths, over-reliance on the tutor for confirmation—"she still sometimes relies on me to tell her if the outcome is right or wrong"—meant hesitancy in checking answers independently during algebra practice.

A Year 7 student's messy handwriting and inconsistent layout in ratio questions led to lost marks as working became hard to follow.

In Year 11, forgetting specific formulas for probability and bivariate data caused repeated stumbles despite prior revision attempts.

For a Year 4 learner, skipping steps when using column addition made it difficult to spot errors; this left them unsure where they went wrong after finishing problems.

Recent Achievements

One Swanbank tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to rely on step-by-step guidance now working through equations independently with just brief prompts, even tackling gradients independently by the end of their session.

In Year 9 English, another student has started "talking aloud" and using pen-and-paper strategies while answering questions—a real shift from silent guessing.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who previously skipped over tough words is now reading new chapters out loud and identifying punctuation errors as she goes, catching things she'd missed before. Last week, she finished her story with only two reminders to check for capitals.

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 St Ann's School.
