Enrolling in an English course with a qualified tutor in addition to your regular English classes at school can be an unbeatable combination to get you on the right path.
Why get English tutoring?
English is an important subject in school in primary and secondary school. What you learn in English class may also carry on to tertiary level education, in the form of essay writing, research and comprehension. The subject of English teaches students the power of language, to express their thoughts and ideas through writing, comprehend and analyse meaning through text and understand social and cultural concepts and ideas. Although studying Shakespeare novels may seem pointless nowadays, studying novels helps us understand historical and modern texts through the lens of the world. It’s common to struggle in English class, and finding an English tutor can direct you on the right path. Some form of English class (English, English Language or English Literature) is a compulsory subject in Australia and is often a pre-requisite for getting into University courses. Private tutoring is a helpful way to catch up or prepare for an exam, as opposed to being in a class with 20 other students. A tutor can grow your confidence, help you pinpoint where you need help and improve your skills and experience in:
- Reading & comprehension
- Writing & structure (for example persuasive writing, essay writing, fiction)
- Grammar & punctuation
- Presentations and speeches
Some other benefits of English tutoring can include:
- Personalised learning experience
- One-on-one support
- Improve general academic performance, attitudes towards school and motivation
- Encourages the ability to work independently
- Improves self-directed learning at your own pace
- Prepares for future education by developing skills to work independently outside of school hours
- Boosts self-esteem and confidence by overcoming obstacles to learning
- Improves study habits, self-discipline and responsibility
- Improves social skills by communicating efficiently with your tutor
An English tutor can help you get homework tasks done in time, by removing distractions and setting a time to sit down and get it done. English tutoring can help children struggling with English and can also help you if English is not your first language native English speaker can help you improve your English with private lessons.
One of the most common reasons for getting English tutoring is in preparation for exams, especially in the final years of high school, such as VCE, HSC or SACE exams. Your tutor can go through the unit outline in the school curriculum with you to focus in on what you're struggling with and get you ready for your exam.
Improve your confidence with English tutoring
Private tutoring can give you the confidence you need if you are struggling in English class. Learning from somebody who has been there before, besides your teacher in school, and who you can bounce ideas and queries off, is valuable. Never underestimate the value of encouragement; often, the more you feel you’re doing well and on the right track, the more motivated you’ll be to work harder. Getting one-on-one support is a way to grow your confidence, as your tutor can focus on you, areas of English to improve on and areas you’re succeeding in. English tutors can offer insight, perspective, and words of encouragement. Having confidence in yourself and your abilities is such an important part of success, and a tutor can help you with this.
Self-directed learning
Tutoring can help you get past obstacles to confidently study on your own. Getting some extra support can encourage and motivate you to work a little harder and equip you to work independently. There are a few ways you can study (without really studying) to give you the skills you need to help English class feel a little easier. Here are ways you can improve your English skills on your own, no matter your age:
Reading
Reading is one of the most enjoyable and helpful activities you can do to improve your English skills. It’s important to find something you enjoy so you’ll have the motivation to read. Novels have a diverse range of subjects and genres, including Young Adult, Contemporary, Science-Fiction, Fantasy and Memoir. Reading non-fiction is a great way to learn about an entire range of topics. Reading often naturally improves your comprehension and writing skills. Benefits of reading include:
- Hours of entertainment
- Reduces stress
- Increases empathy and understanding of people
- Increases vocabulary
- Gain knowledge
- Improves memory
- Improves analytical and critical thinking skills
- Stronger concentration and focus
- Better writing skills
Writing
You don’t have to be great at writing to get writing. There are many forms of writing - even writing for yourself in a journal is practice. Writing is a way to express yourself creatively; you can try free-verse poetry, writing a story about your life or even your passing thoughts and observations about your surroundings. Practicing writing is key to getting better.
Get curious
Becoming more interested in the world around you can help your critical thinking skills, an important skill to have in life and English class. Getting curious, learning about and questioning society and its structures is a way to widen your world-view. Being curious about people, history, culture, art and more will motivate and guide you to become a lifelong self learner, read more and think more.
