English Tutor Samford Valley, QLD
I believe that teaching students how to become a more independent learner is the most important thing that an english tutor can do. As a tutor, it is important to help guide students through their work but not become a crutch that they rely too heavily upon. This way, students will be better equipped to handle the rest of their time at school.…

English Tutor Camp Mountain, QLD
I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is not just to teach them content - its essential to help a student become more self-sufficient in the field they are studying, and to teach them how to learn more effectively. For example, when teaching a child mathematics, I view simply teaching the content as not enough, as if you…

Inside Jollys LookoutTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Emily focused on trigonometry and Pythagoras' Theorem, using diagrams to solve right-angled triangle problems.

In Year 10, Josh worked through linear equations and practiced rearranging formulas, then applied these skills to real-world scenarios involving rates and speed-distance-time calculations.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Zoe tackled finding the area and perimeter of shapes as well as reading time and solving word problems about elapsed time.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student working on index laws sometimes relied heavily on written notes, rather than attempting simplification independently; she kept double-checking the formula instead of trying to recall it.

In a Year 8 geometry session, messy diagram annotations led to confusion when splitting complex shapes—unclear labels slowed progress and created repeated second-guessing.

During a Year 6 lesson on time calculations, forgetting to bring previous worksheets meant valuable revision opportunities were missed.

Meanwhile, in senior Maths Methods, one student hesitated to use feedback from past questions about rearranging equations, so similar errors reappeared in their latest test.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Jollys Lookout noticed a Year 10 student who used to guess at worded rate problems now confidently breaks them down, correctly converting units and pinpointing the best value—something that was tricky for him last term.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student, who often hesitated with graphs, recently drew a conversion graph independently and explained how to predict values from it.

At primary level, one student shifted from confusion about reading clocks to accurately telling time in both "minutes past" and standard formats without prompting.

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 Arana Hills Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Mount Nebo State School.
