I think the best thing an english tutor can do is make learning feel achievable. A big part of that is adapting to how each student learns, breaking things down in a way that makes sense to them, and giving them the confidence to tackle challenges on their own. Tutoring isn't just about getting through the syllabus, it's about showing students how…

English Tutor Ettalong Beach, NSW
Implement creativity and a willingness to try is the most important skill an english tutor can pass on to their students. Once a student builds a willingness to try and a need to challenge themselves, they will be more likely to build good habits and routines around creating these pathways for themselves. I always ask myself 'how do students…

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is believe in them and their abilities. By encouraging students and believing in them students will gain confidence in themselves and develop resilience. Students will then be able to do anything they put their minds to as they have a solid mental foundation to fall back on. I am a…

I believe a truly effective tutor can accurately pinpoint the source of a student's struggle with a particular topic, and propose the correct solution. For example, trouble with foundational concepts often stems from a fundamental misunderstanding of the basics, therefore it is important to readdress the theory portion of the topic and provide…

I think the most important thing is taking the pressure off being “perfectâ€. There is no such thing as perfection and everyone reaches success differently. What works for one person may not work for another and in standardised exams, this often gets misconstrued, adding to the weight of being the perfect student. My patience and positive…

As an english tutor/educator the most important factor to foster with your student is that you are honest and patient. Each student develops at their own pace. My strengths include: *I have found that working with special needs students has helped me to become a more compassionate and patient educator. *My ability to review my own methods if…

A tutors responsibility isn't to provide answers, but to guide students to find their way of learning and to provide alternative approaches when tackling problem scenarios or questions. To be a successful tutor is to develop students mindsets and enable them to eventually trust in their instinct and decide for themselves the best way to go about a…

Provide support both academically and mentally. This can be done through practicing a topic of a subject, and also helping schedule their weeks, so they know they will still have social/leisure time, and maximize their grades and themselves. I am incredibly confident and happy to also learn new things. For example, if a student comes to me and…

Inside Little WobbyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Eva practised identifying and comparing fractions with the same denominator using visual groups, and also worked on multiplication facts and odd vs even numbers.

For Year 8, Mia focused on rearranging formulae to change the subject and substituted values into equations for homework questions.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Liam tackled angles of elevation and depression as well as bearings problems, applying SOHCAHTOA methods to solve for unknowns in right-angled triangles.

Recent Challenges

A Year 4 student was reminded to always write out working for multi-step calculations—"it's easy to lose track when answers are only done in your head," a tutor noted after addition and multiplication mistakes.

In Year 8, there were struggles converting worded problems into equations, with some reluctance to draw diagrams or break questions down visually; this often led to confusion in bearings and trigonometry tasks.

A Year 11 learner practiced tax calculations but relied heavily on notes, hesitating when formulas weren't immediately available.

When pressured by timed practice, one senior student skipped careful reading of stimulus material, leading to overlooked details and avoidable errors.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Little Wobby noticed a big change with one Year 11 student who now arrives to sessions prepared, bringing their own questions about formulas they previously struggled to rearrange—last week, they worked through unknowns independently in right-angle triangles almost entirely on their own.

Meanwhile, a Year 9 student who used to hesitate when asked about converting mixed fractions is now able to switch between forms smoothly and even explains the steps out loud.

At the primary level, a Year 4 learner began identifying larger fractions unaided just by comparing numerators without needing 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 Umina Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Brooklyn Public School.
