The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to increase understanding of the subject and inspire their interest to further pursue their studies in their own time.

English Tutor Leichhardt, QLD
The most important thing is approaching the task not simply as a series of questions to be answered, but instead as a dive into the nature of what is being learned and its applications to the world, which fosters a much greater depth of understanding and encourages curiosity above all else. I do not have a standard technique for learning that…

Most important things I would say would be to be encouraging and prepared. As I said students can feel discouraged sometimes, so I think being positive and patient so that they can have an open mind and have some resilience when content is hard is crucial. As a tutor I think one of my biggest strengths is that I am a student as well and have…

English Tutor Karalee, QLD
I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to teach them to figure out the answers on their own rather than showing them the answers. As the quote goes " Give a man a fish, and you'll feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you've fed him for a lifetime." My strengths as a tutor would be the ability to break down complex…

To ensure that learning is engaging, and independent but with support so that they can grow in confidence and require less assistance in their learning. Another important thing a tutor can do is ensure that the mental health of students are prioritised as this plays a large role in their enthusiasm to study and in a larger part of their life. My…

I think the single most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them develop an intrinsic passion for the content they study, and to assist them in finding methods of learning that make it easier for them to learn. I would rather not spoon-feed answers unless it is absolutely necessary, and would rather a student think critically…

As above, affirming their limitations JUST AS MUCH as their strengths - affirm, affirm, affirm! I believe the most fundamental truth is found in admitting and celebrating weakness.

Inside BoovalTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Aria focused on multiplication strategies using real-life scenarios and worked on converting multiplication to repeated addition, as well as identifying odd and even numbers.

Year 9 student Mia practised solving trigonometry word problems involving sine, cosine, and tangent ratios, along with applying these concepts to calculate surface area of prisms and cylinders using formulas.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Liam tackled cumulative frequency curves and box plots for comparing data sets, alongside interpreting probability questions using Venn diagrams and two-way tables.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student relied heavily on mental calculations during algebra, often skipping written steps—"she tried to do it in her head and didn't say anything when she got stuck"—which led to repeated errors, especially near the end of sessions.

In Year 7, a student lost confidence after struggling with long division above single digits, hesitating to attempt questions without encouragement.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner's focus waned during multi-step word problems; distractions like nearby toys made sustained effort difficult and limited exposure to unfamiliar question types.

Missed or incomplete homework was noted for senior students in probability revision, delaying progress on new material.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Booval noticed that a Year 10 student, Connor, who previously doubted his ability with trigonometry word problems, now solves them accurately and even completed all his homework questions correctly for the first time.

Max, another high schooler, initially hesitated when tackling angle problems in polygons but managed to work through them independently after some guidance—a big step from relying on hints every time.

Meanwhile, Isla in primary school has started self-correcting her mistakes during tests instead of waiting for help and recently retook a maths test, missing only one question compared to several before.

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 Ipswich Libraries—or at your child's school (with permission), like Sacred Heart School.
