English Tutor Shortland, NSW
The biggest thing would be to help students understand that ignorance is not failure. Just because they don't know something "basic", that does not mean they are worse than others, or are stupider, or are not going to succeed. It simply means they were not taught in a way that makes sense to them. This could be for a number of reasons, and not…

I think the most important thing is that they feel motivated to learn, and that going to a tutor would be a fun experience for them. With that, a tutor should be able to clearly teach students and that the student can confidently go to a tutor knowing that he or she will fully understand his or lessons. They should always feel that the learning…

I think making human connection with students and do not imagine myself superior than my pupils are the most important thing one can do for a student in addition to help them academically. I am able to explain hard things in simple form and makes them easy for them to grasp. I do not focus on memorizing as a way to learn but on understanding and…

A tutor should be able to provide good advice for a student with respect to the individual needs of the student. By being flexible, open and available to help students as much as possible, tutors have the capacity to develop a deep and meaningful connection with them and students will be able to trust and learn more from the tutor. As high school…

A tutor should build their confidence, encourage critical thinking, and provide constant support and motivation. It’s also essential to foster independence while ensuring that students always feel supported and know they can seek guidance…

Make sure that the student is comfortable with your way of teaching and is actively involved. Tutoring is not only about jabbering stuff even though the student doesn’t understand a single thing. You have to take it slow and steady until your student is confident enough and can explain the same concept back to you even well. - calmness…

As we all know, learning should not be restricted to getting good marks in any institution or to memorising lists of facts. The most important things that can be given are the motivation and ability to keep finding things out for oneself (and to fact check new information without relying on AI or internet rumour). Seeing and approaching topics…

Local Reviews

Jaya has a gentle but firm way with Charli who really struggles with confidence in her maths. Charli has come ahead leaps and bounds in her abilities over the last year and that is definitely due to Jaya's guidance and support. I would highly recommend Jaya to anyone who is looking for support for their child.

Inside FletcherTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Arjun worked on basic algebraic equations and strategies for unit conversion, practicing step-by-step problem solving.

In Year 9, Ava focused on straight-line equations by formulating lines using gradient (m) and y-intercept (c), along with tackling advanced exam-style questions involving gradients.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ethan revised non-right-angled trigonometry concepts and bearings, completing challenging past paper problems to deepen his understanding.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student struggled to extract data from long worded problems in maths, often losing motivation partway through. As a tutor noted, "she gets demotivated when the question has a lot of words and fewer pictures," which meant essential details were missed during multi-step tasks.

In Year 10 algebra, another found it hard to keep track of variable signs, with working skipped or only partly shown—leading to repeated sign errors and less feedback from the marker.

During HSC preparation, a senior student submitted short, shallow formal responses; incomplete answers left exam markers unsure about her reasoning.

Recent Achievements

A Fletcher tutor recently noticed Molly, a Year 10 student, shifting from needing step-by-step guidance with straight-line equations to independently extracting data and forming the equations herself during sessions.

In Year 8 maths, Janae used to hesitate when tackling algebraic problems but now solves multiple questions on her own without prompting and recalls methods from earlier lessons.

Meanwhile, Georgia in Year 11 has begun explaining annuity table calculations more clearly—her answers are now both more concise and detailed compared to her initial brief responses. Last week, she completed an advanced financial maths question without any hints.

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 Wallsend Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Bishop Tyrrell Anglican College.
