The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to empower them with the tools and confidence to become independent learners. Beyond just imparting knowledge, a tutor should encourage critical thinking skills, problem-solving abilities, and a strong sense of self-efficacy in their students. This involves not only explaining…

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to take the time to understand what aspect of their learning is causing them difficulty, and to address it. Most of the time, a student is more than capable of understanding class content, but there is some inhibiting factor within their working process which makes it difficult for…

I think the most important thing an english tutor can do is enjoy helping the student. If they don't enjoy tutoring I feel like they lack motivation and it feels like they don't want to be there. This makes the student not want to achieve well in there studies. I find that I am very strong in communication skills. I am able to explain complex…

Believing in your student has to be one of the most important things an english tutor can do as you help the student know that nothing is impossible and they can do it all. I also think patience is also important as everyone learns differently and at various paces. I believe I am easy to communicate with. In terms of communicating with parents, my…

Make them interested in the content.

Inside Wynnum WestTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Sam practised multi-digit multiplication and addition in word problems, and used diagrams to draw nets for prisms and pyramids.

In Year 9, Ethan worked through calculating compound interest with the standard formula and revised index laws.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Grace focused on applying quadratic equations to solve for roots of polynomials and began simple differentiation as it relates to physics motion questions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student often left homework incomplete and relied heavily on prompts during sessions, with the tutor noting, "he prefers I go through questions with him right away instead of attempting them solo."

In Year 11 Physics, difficulty plotting neat graphs online made it hard to interpret results—messy formatting blurred his thinking for both himself and the marker.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student rarely planned written tasks, leading to half-finished paragraphs and unclear ideas in English assignments.

During a senior session, one learner's uncharged laptop meant lost lesson time; forgotten materials and disorganization regularly interrupted progress.

Recent Achievements

In a Wynnum West tutoring session, one high school student began to check his answers independently, moving away from relying on the tutor's prompts. He now double-checks by substituting solutions back into equations before moving forward.

Another older student, who previously hesitated to speak up when confused, is now actively asking questions mid-lesson and clarifying difficult concepts out loud instead of shutting down.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student recently started to do basic arithmetic unaided; after learning a new concept once, she could practise it independently with no need for repeated explanation.

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 Wynnum Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Wynnum West State School.
