Homework help and solutions to questions are just an online search away for students!

School students have lots of questions and need lots of help to get access to the resources they need in order to really succeed. This help may come from a tutoring centre, a teacher, a national learning centre for gifted kids, or private tutors who offer their services for free or a fee subject by subject.

Science, maths, English, history, accounting, engineering, management, calculus, statistics, algebra, social studies, physics - subjects galore! Tutors are here to help you online or at your school, in a local library, or even at home and help you get access to the resources you need to learn to really answer the tough questions and get the grades you need.

Why would you use a tutor?

Don't get us wrong, there is still an element of homework support that goes on with your tutor, and this varies among the most popular subjects for kids and older students, including English, mathematics, science, accounting, physics, engineering, history, algebra, calculus, and statistics just to name a few.

Question after question may arise during your time using the services of the tutor, given that homework is given every day, and there is a test every other week. For this reason, the main focus of the tutor is to provide good writing and reading skills rather than just boost your grades in the subjects you study with them. They are there to help you search for solutions yourself and provide support in your learning while they give you resources to address the subject in question.

What you cover with a tutor

In addition to covering time management, homework and test support, and using resources for the subjects in question, a tutor will show you specific skills to boost your ability to learn effectively and search with a book, an app, or online to find solutions, all while giving context to your learning and making your study seem relevant

Given that we are addressing kids and teenagers who study and need homework help with the full range of subjects on offer in the national curriculum - science, English, math, history, management, physics, calculus, algebra, accounting, statistics etc - let's take an overall view to the services a tutor can offer rather than going subject by subject (feel free to search for your own subjects online to see how tutors can be of help).

First of all, they will check what you do and don't understand in the topics covered in class. This means that they'll go through what you've done already and see what you liked and didn't like about it, then try to discover what this means in relation to your learning.

Secondly, they will look at your own homework and try and guide you through it to help you become independent as a learner, all the while looking at what you're struggling with and finding easy and thinking ways to help you search for the answer you need by yourself.

Then, to complement the homework (rather than actually adding extra work for you), the private teacher will use the tutoring time to show you some methods to understand your own work, and perhaps even show some answers to elucidate what they mean. These can be from their own methods or from resources they have found which they can break down for you or lend to you so that you can really get to grips with your own learning.

Finally, they will also be there to assist you in the preparation for exams and national testing, which can be very important when you're considering what you're going to do at university. Your final ATAR score can determine whether you get to study what you really want (although fear not, since there are pathways to your dream degree or job even once at university which a tutor can help with).
