A common misconception within tutoring is the difference between teaching and doing for. The most important thing a tutor can do is broaden and enhance the knowledge of the students in a way they understand. Within reason, an improvement in ability is far more important than an improvement in grades. I excel at building a bond between my self and…

The most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is to give them the confidence to participate in class activities outside of the tutoring session. My most valued moments of tutoring my maths student are when she came back to a session and told me that she participated in class discussions and answered questions in class. I believe it is…

Inside CapalabaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student James focused on binomial and normal distributions, including how to interpret and extract key information from worded probability questions.

In Year 8, Emma worked through bivariate data analysis by calculating Pearson's correlation coefficient and improving her note-taking for statistics topics.

For primary, Year 3 student Paige practised identifying sentence types—interrogative, imperative, declarative, exclamatory—and converted verbs into past, present, and future tenses while checking grammar as she wrote.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student arrived without the necessary materials, limiting progress on targeted questions; as a tutor noted, "he should have his work ready for next time."

In senior maths, a student's written solutions lacked clear layout and structure, making it harder to spot errors during complex algebra or financial problems.

Another senior student showed over-reliance on notes for remembering formulas instead of committing them to memory—this slowed her response in timed practice.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner avoided asking for help when unsure how to begin a long division problem, leading to repeated missteps and frustration.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Capalaba recently noticed a Year 10 student who used to skip over mistakes now stops and explains what went wrong before correcting her algebra, which has made her homework much more accurate.

In a senior maths session, one student, after struggling with probability distributions last term, can now confidently handle any discrete random variable question in the textbook without hesitation.

Meanwhile, Paige in primary school began sounding out syllables on her own for tricky spelling words and often fixed errors before the tutor pointed them out—last week she spelled eight out of eleven correctly after getting only five right previously.

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