The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is relate to their learning. A great tutor will adapt their learning styles and pedagogy to frame the student and enable them to learn in the best way possible. For example, you may have several students across the week, yet all of them are different. A great tutor makes an effort in…

Local Reviews

Eli is doing so well with Filip. Yesterday was only his third lesson with but he already feels like Filip understood the areas which need attention and he helps him to understand the questions better. He now looks forward to his tutoring lessons, which he was def not keen about at the start. Thank you so much for your help and we look forward to continuing our lessons with Filip.

Inside KalingaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Alex focused on simplifying fractions and finding highest common factors, then tackled percentage word problems involving ratios.

For Year 10, Jackson reviewed the cosine rule and practiced graphing exponential functions, also reinforcing power and index laws using variables in algebraic contexts.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Priya concentrated on identifying turning points and intercepts when graphing quadratics, using step-by-step worked examples to deepen her understanding of these key features.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 algebra, a student hesitated to write full working for complex rearrangements, which sometimes hid calculation slips—he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors.

For a Year 11 calculus assignment, feedback from the draft was not always implemented; small errors recurred even after comments were given.

In Year 7, confidence issues with mental arithmetic led to second-guessing and slowed progress during worded problem tasks.

Meanwhile, a primary student often forgot key parts of multi-step questions in number patterns until prompted to re-read instructions. This left gaps in answers that only became obvious at review.

Recent Achievements

One Kalinga tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to guess through multiple-choice maths problems now pausing to cross out obviously wrong answers, narrowing down her choices and explaining her thinking aloud.

A Year 12 student who struggled with rearranging complex equations in physics began independently switching between variables and even anticipated how to revolve an area between two curves before it was formally introduced—showing new initiative.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student grasped fraction operations so well after one explanation that she confidently completed the next set of questions without hesitation or extra help.

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 Nundah Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Eagle Junction State School.
