I think the most important thing an english tutor can do is ensure the student knows we are on their side and only want them to improve. To create a comfortable places where all questions, marks, practise papers and ideas can be discussed without judgement. To be a person where they can just focus on improvement and nothing else I think my…

I believe that one of the most important things is recognising students' needs and personalising their experience such that it is most beneficial for them. It is important to be empathetic and open-minded to a range of learning styles as an english tutor, in order to assist in their academic journies. I also believe that a tutor should maintain a…

Being a source of advice and support in a student's scholarly journey. I am approachable and non-judgemental so students can ask me for help on school topics that they may not want to ask their teachers or parents due to anxiety. I use learning styles that complement the student I am teaching, as opposed to a "one size fits all"…

There are 2 things at the crux of what tutors should do for students. 1) Instilling confidence in themselves. A student will not learn if they are discouraged and apprehensive about their abilities - they need to feel supported and this can be done through praise and making 'light' of the task. 2) Equipping students with skills. The phrase "Method…

Inside BerowraTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ella focused on multiplying and dividing fractions, as well as practising long division with remainders.

For Year 9, Sam worked through probability concepts using dot plots and frequency tables to analyse data distributions.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Mia explored financial mathematics by calculating simple and compound interest, alongside tackling area and perimeter problems relevant to real-world scenarios.

Recent Challenges

Not showing working caused a Year 10 student to lose marks in recent tests—"he had full pages with no working," which made it difficult to spot and correct errors, especially in surds and algebra.

In Year 11, forgetting formulas for compound interest and depreciation meant extra time was spent searching rather than solving problems.

A Year 7 student regularly misread multi-step word problems; one tutor noted: "He stopped after finding how many went on the excursion, but missed the question about those who did NOT go."

For a primary student, messy number placement in long division made following calculations—and self-correction—much harder.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Berowra noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who, after struggling to apply the compound interest formula in past sessions, was able to use it accurately without prompting for both monthly and quarterly scenarios.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student who used to mix up like terms showed clear improvement by independently grouping and simplifying expressions correctly during algebra work.

At primary level, one student who previously hesitated with time zone questions is now confidently calculating time differences between countries using tables, even deciding whether to add or subtract based on location.

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 Berowra Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Pacific Berowra Christian School.
