I believe that a chemistry tutor should be able to assist in building confidence in their students' abilities and should encourage learning from both mistakes and criticism, as well as taking these aspects in a positive manner. I think that a tutor's job is to both work on their students' educational needs but also build strong soft skills in…

Chemistry Tutor Townsville, QLD
The most important thing you can do for a student is usually to inspire them, as this is the number one key to success and personal growth for them in a subject, in my opinion. Allowing students to appreciate beauty and simplicity links the value of the topics to their work in it. Of course, some students are already very passionate so for them…

One of the most important things a chemistry tutor can do for a student is to not only teach content but to be there as a mentor. Exam periods, life and post-school options can all be stressful for students and it is vital that a tutor can mentor students throughout this through stress mechanisms. This, coupled with effective teaching methods and…

One of the most important things a chemistry tutor can do is motivate the student and help build their love for the subject. Helping the student let go of their fear of the subject can not only help them in the present but also aid them in their future endeavours. I personally am aware of the feeling of fearing a subject but also conquering this…

Chemistry Tutor Cranbrook, QLD
As a chemistry tutor it is vital that we make sure the student doesn't resent learning and to achieve this we must be open to how the student responds to different teaching styles and adjust our approach to make it individualised to each student. I believe my strengths include my patience and communication skills. I always found reading a textbook…

Chemistry Tutor Townsville, QLD
The most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is to engage the student in a way which makes them want to keep learning that specific subject if not fall in love with it. At the end of the day motivation must come from the student themself and as a tutor I believe it is my job to help the student find that motivation. I believe my…

Be able to explain concepts simply and in different ways until the student is able to understand. Also be calm and patient and understand that students can struggle to grasp certain concepts and may take time to understand them. I'm patient and understanding. I've only been out of education for a few months so can easily remember how difficult it…

Inside GarbuttTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Eve worked through trigonometry problems and tackled similarity and congruence questions from her past exam, focusing on correcting errors and approaching both familiar and unfamiliar scenarios.

For Year 10, Isaac concentrated on chemistry by identifying ionic and covalent bonds, answering questions about interactions between compounds, and determining chemical formulas.

In Year 12, Ava refined her biology skills by developing a risk assessment form in preparation for an upcoming IA2 experiment assignment.

Recent Challenges

Several high school students did not complete assigned homework, which impacted their ability to apply new skills—one Year 9 student repeatedly arrived without finished algebra tasks, so feedback could not be checked.

In a Year 11 science session, "he could not locate the most updated version of his assessment," slowing down revision and leaving key issues unaddressed.

Another senior student struggled to explain reasoning in trigonometry; as one tutor noted, "she gave an answer but didn't explain why cos55 > cos65."

During a junior secondary maths lesson, messy working made sign errors harder to spot when solving equations.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Garbutt noticed that Eve, a Year 10 student, used to struggle with identifying her mistakes in maths tests but recently pinpointed exactly where she went wrong after reviewing exercises together—she's now correcting errors on her own.

Meanwhile, Jacinta (Year 11) showed more independence by bringing a revised essay draft for feedback, having already worked through both teacher and tutor comments between sessions.

At the primary level, Sophia has started tackling division problems without waiting for help and now finishes homework tasks independently—something she hesitated with 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 Citylibraries Aitkenvale—or at your child's school (with permission), like Garbutt State School.
