Ensuring that the student actually understands what is being explained is very important, if not, the student may be able to easily solve a problem with some assistance, but if they can't work out how to solve the problem on their own, they don't truly understand it. Therefore, it is important that the student understands the concepts and doesn't…

Ultimately, I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is instill self-confidence within the student, positively change a student's view and approach toward learning, and assist in improving student academic performance. In my opinion, a tutor is more likely to achieve these positive student outcomes if they are consistently: - Honest,…

I think the most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is to be someone that can focus on just them (1-on-1), where a teacher cannot, and to find a specific way to teach them based on the students needs (i.e. How the student learns best?). A teacher is unable to do this as much as they have many students to focus on. But tutors can…

I think the first step in the journey between student and tutor is to build rapport. If the student does not feel comfortable in the space and time allocated, the learning achieved will be sub-optimal. Secondly, I believe patience is critical for tutors - I have seen firsthand the frustration that students can have independently to potential…

Inside HerstonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Chloe worked on converting between decimals, fractions, and percentages as well as tackling introductory probability questions.

In Year 10, Sam focused on applying trigonometry to real-world problems and practiced solving simultaneous linear equations algebraically.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Mia explored genetics by discussing inheritance patterns and compared the processes of mitosis and meiosis using diagrams for clarity.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often forgot formulas for area and circumference, needing frequent prompts before attempting questions on circles and triangles.

In a recent algebra session (Year 9), she gave up easily when faced with expansion tasks, showing low motivation and reluctance to revisit earlier feedback or attempt corrections.

For a Year 6 learner, not writing out number sentences in fraction problems made it difficult for her teacher to follow her logic—missteps went unspotted until answers were checked.

During data analysis in Year 10, confusion about which values to use for mean and median led to repeated errors, as she avoided reviewing prior mistakes.

Recent Achievements

One Herston tutor noticed a Year 11 student who'd struggled with algebraic linear equations finally work through problems independently after two weeks of guided practice—a clear shift from confusion to self-sufficiency.

In another session, a Year 9 student who used to avoid asking for help began proactively raising questions about concepts she found tough in class, showing new initiative and ownership over her learning.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student, once hesitant with fractions and decimals, was able to sort decimals and apply methods to different question types on her own during tutoring.

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 Grange Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kelvin Grove State College.
