If you are a tutor, your job is to empower other people. Even if you are picking up blind spots, asking a student to paraphrase something, or advising more research in a particular area, there are ways to convey this information that are encouraging and helpful, (rather than condescending). We all have blind spots, too. I have found it…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to not spoon feed information, its the art of teaching the child to a degree where it helps them but doesnt answer the entire thing.

Inside GailesTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 student Ella reviewed key definitions and foundational biology concepts, with a focus on biogeochemical cycles and biodiversity using recall exercises.

For Year 11, Jayden practiced data test skills related to reservoir pools and cycling pools in the context of ecosystem analysis.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Olivia tackled bivariate data analysis and statistics topics such as calculating central tendencies and standard deviation, applying these methods to real datasets.

Recent Challenges

Homework completion and organization were key issues in senior Biology, with one student not submitting assignments on time and "falling behind on tutoring content."

In Year 11 Physics, draft progress lagged as planning was prioritized over finishing the written report.

A Year 8 Maths session revealed working out was often messy, making it difficult to track errors or revise ("working out can be tidier and handwriting can be worked on").

For a primary student reading Three Billy Goats Gruff, frustration led to avoidance when unfamiliar words appeared—colouring provided a short reset before returning to word identification.

Recent Achievements

A big shift was noticed with a Year 11 student who, after previously hesitating to speak up, is now actively asking clarifying questions during biology revision and even initiating discussions when unsure—a sign she's taking real ownership of her learning.

In senior maths, another high schooler recently mastered the long division process and now completes problems independently without waiting for prompts, where before he'd pause and ask for each step.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student who used to skip unfamiliar words during reading now stops to sound them out and identifies which ones need extra practice before moving on.

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