Beyond just imparting knowledge, a tutor should encourage critical thinking skills, problem-solving abilities, and a strong sense of self-efficacy in their students. This involves not only explaining concepts but…

Helping them complete their work is part of the job. However, the most important thing is making sure students are relaxed. If they are getting overwhelmed they shouldn't be pushed because then it'll make them feel like they can't do it.

Inside HemmantTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Daniel practised all four operations with decimals—addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division—without a calculator and reinforced rounding skills in context.

Year 8 student Grace focused on expanding brackets and solving both one- and two-step algebraic equations, working through examples to build confidence.

For Year 10, Sarah reviewed compound interest calculations using the formula and tackled index laws through targeted practice questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9, one student repeatedly relied on a calculator for basic arithmetic during coordinate plotting, which slowed problem-solving and affected confidence with manual calculations. "He used the calculator even when adding small numbers," noted the tutor.

A Year 11 learner tackled calculus exam revision but avoided unfamiliar question types, instead repeating only familiar fluency problems; this limited their ability to adapt in test scenarios.

In a Year 6 English task, missing homework and incomplete planning left writing pieces half-finished and lacking cohesion.

Another senior student arrived without a charged laptop or printed materials, disrupting focused work time.

Recent Achievements

One Hemmant tutor noticed a Year 11 student who previously hesitated to ask questions now confidently clarifies confusing concepts, especially in algebra—he'll pause the lesson to check his understanding rather than guessing and moving on.

A Year 9 student has begun tackling word problems by first scanning for key details and outlining their approach before asking for help, which marks a big shift from waiting passively for guidance.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who struggled with writing is now drafting topic sentences independently and weighing tutor suggestions against his own ideas before deciding how to proceed.

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