I think the most important thing a tutor can do is learnt how each individual student learns and be able to deliver information in a way they can understand. I believe my main strength as a tutor is that I am able to reexplain a topic in a multitude of ways depending on how a student is able to process…

To ensure that the student understands everything fully. That is what a tutor is for, and no concept or idea should be left unturned. Everything should be thoroughly explored until full understanding has been achieved. I am an extremely patient person who will spend as long as required to explain a concept or idea. I also use down-to-earth…

The most important thing I can do for a student is fill in the gaps that the teacher can't. Teachers aren't able to modify the way they teach for every individual student, as a tutor I can do that. I am good at helping people understand concepts that are difficult to understand. I love learning and like to share my enthusiasm with other people.…

Firstly, I believe the philosophy of "Teaching to fish rather than giving a fish. " It suggests that the tutor has a responsibility to inspire her students to take further exploration in the subject and cultivate good learning habits. Secondly, I think encouragement is essential in tutoring. Being as a tutor, I would let my student know that they…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is to improve a student's confidence with the subject they are tutoring. Once a student has the confidence that they can in fact figure it out they will be far more willing to put in the hard work to improve in the subject. A tutor must encourage their students to ask as many questions as they'd like…

If you have a basic idea of the student mindset you can develop techniques to make them understand the subject in a way they don't find it hard. Gamification…

Inside TurnerTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Anton practised long multiplication and division alongside reading comprehension, and also spent time developing rhythm skills in music through hands-on clapping exercises.

For Year 8, Charlotte reviewed surface area, volume, and perimeter problems using practice questions to prepare for an upcoming test, then tackled algebraic fractions with a focus on multiplying and dividing complex expressions.

Meanwhile, Tom in Year 9 refined his English essay on Of Mice and Men by exploring themes of the American Dream, and revised linear relationships in maths ahead of his test.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student faced difficulty maintaining logical written steps in algebra, with a tutor noting, "he skipped showing steps in rearranging equations, which hid sign errors." This often meant time was lost tracing mistakes instead of moving forward.

In Year 7 English, one learner's messy handwriting and tendency to rush made their sentences hard to follow—sometimes the grammar suffered as a result.

Meanwhile, a senior student tackling probability struggled to recall sampling methods under timed conditions; even when understanding the theory, lack of structured revision led to avoidable confusion during more complex tasks.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Turner noticed a big shift with one Year 11 student who used to hesitate on complex algebra but now independently tackles expanding binomials and even remembers the steps for tricky parabolas from previous sessions.

Another high schooler, after struggling to start essays, now jots down discussion points between lessons and brings well-prepared outlines—she's even watched extra films to deepen her analysis for English.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who often guessed at times tables is now confidently doing quick mental multiplication and checks his work before moving on.

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 Dickson Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Turner School.
