Being a teacher, it's his/her duty to make the student understand any concept accurately with an ease and with great patience. It is not right to shout or get angry on any person if he or she is not able to do any thing, all you need is some time and practice and also some tricks to solve any problem. I am a very patient person and work with full…

I think one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is give the student confidence that they can complete problems on their own and be successful in their studies. I remember how disheartening it was when I couldn't understand or effectively answer problems in school. Especially at a younger age, academic success is a value that…

I believe that it is incredibly important for a tutor to inspire their student to achieve their very best in terms of their academics.

I think that as a tutor, being able to understand the perspective of the student is crucial in educating them.

Another important tutoring technique is to be prepared for sessions. Whether it…

Inside BalmoralTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Lincoln worked on reading and constructing line graphs, along with measuring angles using a protractor.

In Year 10, Rebecca practiced solving quadratic equations using the quadratic formula and reviewed key properties of right-angled triangles.

For Year 11, content included bivariate data analysis—specifically drawing scatter plots to examine correlation—and also factorising quadratics by both the null factor method and perfect square formulas.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student working on mathematical induction and De Moivre's theorem tended to "try to do most of the work in his head," which made it difficult for tutors to spot errors or offer corrections. As one tutor noted, "he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors."

In Year 8, another student often forgot to write out full workings during division problems; this led to calculation mistakes that slowed progress.

A Year 5 student became confused between perimeter and area but persisted through challenges, sometimes missing key instructions due to not reviewing all question details—extra time was spent clarifying before moving forward.

Recent Achievements

A Balmoral tutor noticed that Dyllan, a high school student, now asks for help with challenging polynomial long division instead of skipping tricky questions—he's grown more comfortable identifying where he needs support and working through problems together.

In another session, Clara made a shift from hesitating on worded quadratic problems to confidently drawing diagrams and solving them independently using new strategies she'd learned.

Meanwhile, in Year 4 maths, one student who used to rush and miss steps in addition now slows down to check each answer before moving on, finishing her worksheet with only self-corrected mistakes this week.

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 Bulimba Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Bulimba State School.
