I believe that the purpose of an english tutor is to tailor their teaching as closely as possible to the needs of every individual student; tutors should never take a one-size fits all approach to teaching. Whether that be addressing specific areas of weakness, or adopting a particular teaching style, every student has their own unique needs and…

The most important thing an english tutor can do is listen to their student and work out the most appropriate way to help them.

I believe that an english tutor should instil a positive mindset to learning in each student, by encouraging them to challenge themselves, be persistent, and know that making mistakes is a part of learning. I also feel that a tutor should teach their students practical strategies and skills that students can learn to use independently. This way,…

Help them learn the way they learn best.

And that is okay, so as an english tutor, I would want to see how they learn best, and help them to enjoy and…

A tutor must be patient as well as motivating for their students. They must be organised and have a well structured plan to support their students while still being open to their ideas and opinions.

The most important thing about being an english tutor is definitely creating output for the student as effectively and efficiently as possible. However, this cannot be done in a way where the student feels obliged to come to your sessions to study. They must enjoy the environment so that they are doing this happily and to their own accord.

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to offer them quality information and direct feedback on their work and areas of struggle. Additionally, a tutor should be humble such that they do not impose their own ideas onto a student, but rather walk alongside the student's journey of learning. This helps to establish a strong…

Inside GreenbankTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Olivia tackled simple and compound interest calculations, applying formulas to practical scenarios.

In Year 11, Ethan focused on exponential growth and decay, along with an introduction to logarithms and their properties.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Ava revised second derivatives—using them for graphing and motion problems—and practiced solving complex triangle questions drawn from recent classwork.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student hesitated to attempt exam-style modelling questions, even when her reasoning was correct—"she often takes the right steps but is very reluctant," as one tutor noted.

In Year 8 algebra, skipping key steps when rearranging equations led to small errors that made entire solutions fall apart.

A Year 5 learner avoided writing working for multi-step word problems, preferring mental calculation; this meant mistakes crept in unnoticed and were only found much later.

In senior statistics, over-reliance on notes and calculators left gaps in understanding, especially when faced with new calculator functions during assessments.

Recent Achievements

One Greenbank tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to rely heavily on notes now solving statistics problems almost entirely from memory, even tackling tricky triangle rules with new independence.

A high schooler recently started spotting and correcting their own errors while interpreting complex questions—something they hesitated to do before—which means fewer mistakes slip through.

In a Year 4 session, a student who previously rushed her work is now talking aloud about each maths step and highlighting key details, leading her to solve three-digit subtraction problems without any help for the first time.

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 Greenbank Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Boronia Heights State School.
