English Tutor Tweed Heads, NSW
The most relevant things when it comes to tutoring are being able to connect with the student in a way that they feel motivated and find the help they need in order to learn. I believe students should have access to meaningful learning. I get along very well with children and teenagers and always find the way to motivate and encourage them to…

Other than helping a student genuinely understand the content in their course, I think that the most important thing an english tutor can do for them is to help them in developing and implementing strategies to allow them to become independently successful. This may mean developing a better organisational process, implementing a system for…

English Tutor Banora Point, NSW
Not just tutor them, but be a friend. By opening up and developing a closer bond to students, the students feel more comfortable and it doesn't become an english tutoring session, but just a study session. I went through the course(s) myself quite recently, so I understand what's expected on the students, and what they need to do to excel and not…

Teach not the style I want to teach or the style I learnt but in the style that the student best learns. The content would most easily be absorbed when it is presented in the way the student best learns I am Friendly, extroverted, assertive, committed, open minded to learning new things and trying new techniques. I am not dismissive of questions…

Understanding self, and the acquisition of skill and knowledge are the most important things to give a student. Yes, the report card is an important ticket for students, and especially those in tutoring. But, all that knowledge will perish without use. The growth of the individual, who they are becoming through the process - a competent and…

A tutor can do many essential things for a student: provide a safe space for learning, understand their individual needs, align the session with the students' goals, provide encouragement and support, and provide the student tools essential tools for lifelong learning. However, above all, fostering a nurturing environment that focuses on the…

I think the most important thing an english tutor can do is help a student find and maintain their motivation and enthusiasm for learning. It is absolutely essential that a tutor review concepts, cover material, and ensure that a student is making progress, but is equally important for a tutor to make the learning experience positive for the…

Electra is a Miracle Tutor! I have a very difficult, stubborn 16year old boy. Electra, somehow , got inside his head and now my 16year old is trying to improve. He is finally making an effort in a subject that he couldn't care less about, but is a core subject! I'm so very impressed by Electras Skill!

Inside Tweed HeadsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Bella worked through maths questions on time and perimeter, alongside English worksheets focusing on sentence structure and homonyms.

In Year 9, Willow concentrated on fraction operations—simplifying, adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions—as well as converting between improper fractions and mixed numbers.

Jeremy, a Year 10 student, reviewed trigonometry topics like finding unknown sides or angles in right-angled triangles using diagrams, plus practised algebraic techniques including expanding brackets and factorisation in preparation for his semester exam.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student arrived underprepared for exam revision, focusing on general basics rather than targeted practice, which left her unable to tackle more complex questions during the session.

In Year 10 algebra, a tendency to avoid writing out full working made it difficult to spot sign errors—he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student sometimes glanced over instructions and got confused by her own calculations when tackling worded maths problems.

A primary student forgot necessary materials for an area task, missing out on written practice that day and losing momentum mid-lesson.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Tweed Heads noticed Jeremy, a high school student, has started catching his own mistakes in algebra and now explains the steps out loud before moving on—something he used to rush through without checking.

Willow, also in high school, recently worked through a challenging fractions worksheet from the grade 7 syllabus; she managed most questions on her own and only needed reminders for tricky parts, a big step up from earlier sessions where she'd hesitate to start.

Meanwhile, Bella (Year 6) now asks for extra homework and proofreads her writing after previously submitting work with frequent errors.

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 Tweed Heads Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Joseph's Primary School.
