Science Tutor Augustine Heights, QLD
The most important thing I can do for my students is leaving them feeling confident and self-sufficient. They can't rely on tutoring forever and I hope to prepare my students by turning them into independent critical thinkers who can always ask questions as well as find their own answers. My strengths are my patience and my ability to improvise…

Science Tutor Springfield, QLD
Most students want to get through the next exam, but I also consider it important that knowledge and skills are reinforced and retained for years, if not for life. Because I've studied chemistry, I have a broad grasp of sciences from biology to physics and maths, and can help students link related concepts in a reinforcing manner. I've also worked…

My teaching style is a self-made one which is partially inspired by my mom and my grandmother who were also teachers. * I try to simplify things as much as possible. In fact, i believe, the most difficult thing to do is to simplify something. * I always try to include real-life examples while explaining concepts which helps the students to…

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 tutors must also be good problem solvers in order to assist students with their studies. An effective tutor will always encourage independence and…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is be able to work at their pace and style, and give all the time the students needs to completely understand, learn, and comprehend certain ideas and concepts for effective learning and long-term retention. I'm an adaptable and compassionate tutor who really takes the time to understand how…

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…

The most important thing a tutor can give to his/her student is confidence. The confidence to know that whatever the problem is. There is no point trying to avoid it when if you work hard enough and practice enough with the right help, you will be able to solve problems on your own. Eventually the student does not need the tutor as a crutch if the…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is to make the student take an active role in their learning. Rather than simply dictate the steps to take, a tutor needs to ensure the student participates in each aspect of their learning, whether it be through examples or solving problems. A tutor also needs to be well informed on the content a…

Be empathetic and help them through a method they are most comfortable with, even if it can be time consuming. As I have recently graduated highschool, the information is still fresh in my mind. I have been through what most students are currently going through (stress and difficulties) thus it will be easier for me to guide them through their…

To me, one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to be open and encouraging. Everyone (not only kids) gets embarrassed and scared to ask questions when they don't know what to do -- its our job to make sure they feel safe enough to ask so that they can fully grasp everything in their minds. If one of my students kept…

Inside Augustine HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Pavit focused on addition and subtraction of large numbers, revisiting homework mistakes to strengthen accuracy.

In Year 8, Olivia tackled the concept of integers and practiced applying operations with positive and negative numbers using worked examples.

For Year 10, Amie prepared for an upcoming biology exam by working through worksheets covering cell structure and function as well as revision on statistics, geometric sequences, and arithmetic sequences.

Recent Challenges

In Year 4, one student was still using fingers for two-digit addition, which slowed progress and led to errors; when subtraction required "borrowing," steps were missed.

Homework was set but not always completed or done correctly—one note stated, "she did them wrong in the homework book again."

In Year 10 maths, anxiety with diagrams and large numbers reduced confidence during problem-solving.

Another high schooler avoided showing working on simultaneous equations in sequence problems, making it harder to catch mistakes; as a tutor noted, "I have given him a test to determine his strengths and weaknesses."

Recent Achievements

One Augustine Heights tutor noticed a Year 4 student who had always relied on counting fingers for subtraction now starting to solve two-digit problems from memory—something he used to avoid.

In a high school science session, Amie, who was previously hesitant when facing unfamiliar revision questions, began attempting them with minimal prompting and showed stronger communication skills in her written assignment.

Meanwhile, an older student who once waited passively for answers has started asking for explanations when stuck and now completes most maths problems independently before checking back.

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 Redbank Plains Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like The Springfield Anglican College.
