English Tutor Tivoli, QLD
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to set up reachable and positive expectations for individual students. No two students learn the same, so it is important to cater for the individuals learning needs whether they need concrete materials, whiteboards, etc. As I am still relatively young, and work in a low socio…

English Tutor Collingwood Park, QLD
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…

English Tutor Pine Mountain, QLD
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. I would prioritise my strengths as: - enthusiasm - pedantic attention to detail - strong synthesising skills and understanding across a wide range of…

Carl has been tutoring my son over the past month and so far so good. He is thorough and dives deep into concepts and problems to help him improve. My son is very happy with Carl's mentoring and teaching.

Inside Eastern HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Ava worked on two- and three-times tables, as well as strategies for adding three two-digit numbers together and connecting this to multiplication.

Year 6 student Emily focused on converting between metres, centimetres, and millimetres, along with choosing the most appropriate units when measuring distances like those between cities.

Meanwhile, Year 7 student Josh practised fractions by adding them with both common and different denominators, then moved on to subtracting fractions in a variety of contexts.

Recent Challenges

A Year 5 student repeatedly lost focus near the end of lessons, often needing reminders to stay on task; as one tutor noted, "she needed a lot of encouragement to do questions" when attention drifted.

In Year 4 maths, confusion between multiplication and division persisted—relying on booklets or finger-counting rather than building mental fluency with times tables led to slow progress in long division tasks.

A Year 3 student was reluctant to attempt unfamiliar word problems without prompting, avoiding mistakes but missing out on essential practice.

Misplaced homework and resistance to repetitive tasks sometimes left revision incomplete for English.

Recent Achievements

One Eastern Heights tutor noticed some great changes recently: Harrison, a high school student, started out unsure about using Heron's rule but by the end of his session was confidently reading sections aloud and self-correcting mistakes as he went.

Ashlee, another older student, improved her spelling dramatically—she went from struggling with certain words to achieving a perfect score on her final spelling test and using those words correctly in sentences.

Meanwhile, Isla (primary) showed real independence by redoing a maths test independently she'd previously found tricky and scoring much higher, missing only one question this time.

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