Moreover, being attentive to the student is a way of making the lesson flow smoothly. For…

I believe that an english 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 terms…

One of the most important things a 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 fear by…

English Tutor Kirwan, QLD
One of the most important things a 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 provision…

English Tutor Wulguru, QLD
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 Hermit ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Isaac worked through quadratic equations in maths, including more challenging problems, and focused on chemistry skills like writing ionic compounds and naming covalent compounds.

Year 11 student Sophia tackled the binomial theorem by expanding using Pascal's triangle, along with revising index laws for an upcoming formative assessment.

Meanwhile, Year 7 student Eve reviewed trigonometry questions from a past exam and addressed mistakes in similarity and congruence problems, discussing strategies to approach complex questions confidently.

Recent Challenges

Several high school students missed or did not complete assigned homework, leading to repeated gaps in practice—one Year 10 maths student "could not finish her assigned Homework again" and struggled with graphing tasks.

In senior chemistry, a Year 12 student arrived unprepared without the online textbook, which slowed lesson progress and limited problem-solving.

Organization was also an obstacle for a Year 11 science student who "could not locate the most updated version of the assessment," disrupting feedback on critical work.

These process issues led to lost time troubleshooting basics instead of advancing into deeper revision or exam preparation.

Recent Achievements

One Hermit Park tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 10 student who, after struggling with trigonometry basics, started pinpointing her mistakes and now works through both familiar and complex problems with more accuracy.

A senior student recently brought a full essay draft—along with teacher feedback—to tutoring, having acted on previous advice and showing clearer structure than before.

In a primary session, the student who once hesitated now regularly asks questions when unsure and completes division problems independently. Last week, she finished all her homework independently for the first 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 Citylibraries Flinders Street—or at your child's school (with permission), like Hermit Park State School.
