I consider the most important thing as an english tutor is the success of my student academically through personalised lessons. I feel an obligation to ensure that my students pass or exceed in the topics they bring to the lessons and aim to empower them to create independent learners. I would say my strengths are being able to break down complex…

In my opinion, as an english tutor, it is very important to cherish the students as they progressed, acknowledging their work and encourage them to try to do with their full potential. Besides, it is important to have an understanding of their best way of learning, and encourage them to question in their learning. Furthermore, awareness of their…

I believe the most important thing an english tutor can offer a child is patience. Impatience does not create a suitable learning environment. Qualities like these can prevent a child from wanting to learn, they may negatively associate with the subject, putting them further behind. Every child can succeed, given enough time. I have strengths as…

There are many important things an english tutor can do for their students however, the greatest thing is being a supportive role model. If the student is able to respect and understand their tutor, there is a high chance that student looks up to that tutor. Therefore, it is important that the tutor can develop a professional relationship with the…

I think the most important things an english tutor can do for a student are to build their confidence, make learning engaging, and teach them how to think independently. It's not just about explaining concepts it's about creating a supportive space where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. A tutor should also adapt…

I think the most important things an english tutor can do is a) be consistent and persistent - constantly show up, be willing to explain things 100 times if that's what is needed. The student needs to have faith in you. And b) build confidence - tutoring isn't a short term option, by teaching them the skills of how to attack problems they don't…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to give them the confidence to never stop trying to learn despite few low moments. I personally, encourage students to ask even the most basic questions which come across their mind and to never feel ashamed of wanting to learn more or being curious. In my opinion, Constantly…

A tutor must provide enough time, guidance and have patience with their students so that they feel comfortable and ask doubts whenever they required. I enjoy my passion towards teaching and want my students not to have any fear towards any subject and I make learning easier for them by teaching the things their way, as every student has their own…

I believe a tutor should give encouragement generously. A tutor should also empower students by teaching them skills that will help them throughout their schooling and beyond. I care about my students. I try to identify their learning style so that I'm better equipped to help them. I encourage my students to work their way through problems instead…

A tutor not only has to teach and assist, but has to provide a student with the confidence that he or she is capable of performing work to a high standard on their own. I believe my biggest strengths, as evident by my high school grades, are my highly developed mathematical and english skills. My main weakness would be holding a student to a…

Inside VirginiaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Archie worked on simplifying ratios and strengthening times tables knowledge.

Year 8 Amelia focused on finding the area of kites, diamonds, and irregular shapes, as well as revising perimeter and area concepts using classwork examples.

Meanwhile, Year 9 Suhana practised trigonometry by calculating missing triangle sides and reviewed key topics such as surface area, volume, and Pythagoras' theorem in preparation for an upcoming assessment.

Recent Challenges

In a recent Year 10 session, one student hesitated to talk through their problem-solving steps in maths, often defaulting to "I don't know" when faced with fraction addition ("encourage her to talk through her thinking process").

For a Year 8 biology lesson, the absence of key materials like the test and textbook meant essential review couldn't happen—momentum was lost before the work began.

Meanwhile, a senior student preparing for exams sometimes forgot to bring required resources or background notes; as a result, valuable lesson time shifted from tackling challenging content to scrambling for basics.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Virginia noticed a Year 9 student who used to rush through maths problems now routinely checks her work for errors and fixes them herself, something she avoided before.

In another high school session, a student tackling Pythagoras' theorem was able to solve composite shape questions without any prompts and talked through each step out loud—a shift from previous lessons where he waited for guidance.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who previously panicked at multi-step multiplication tasks now calmly breaks them into chunks and finishes skip counting exercises on her own.

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 Two Wells Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Virginia Primary School.
