Software Dev Tutor Taringa, QLD
I believe it's being supportive of the students' progress, no matter how big or small. Keeping track of their achievements and encouraging them makes the subject less daunting and more approachable. I believe I am able to teach children in a way that helps them understand a topic. This is due to how I learn topics myself, which involves learning…

The most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is to build rapport so that they trust in your abilities and in your desire to help them. I also believe that it is important that students feel that the time that they have spent with you has been worth the cost and the effort. One of my tutoring strengths is my ability to explain…

Helping the student not only improve their studies, but learn how to better study and learn independently when at home/in school.

For it's most important for a tutor or mentor to encourage asking. You won't know anything unless you ask for it. More importantly, this builds a person's confidence, which is especially helpful in succeeding. My strengths as a tutor are patience and perseverance. I do not stop until the end goal is achieved. I persist as necessary to succeed, not…

Inside Kelvin GroveTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Angus focused on probability concepts, including two-way tables and Venn diagrams, with practice questions to build confidence ahead of his assessment.

In Year 9, Lina worked through trigonometry topics such as sine and cosine rules using example problems, and also tackled compound interest calculations involving both direct and reverse scenarios.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Jessica covered advanced Specialist Mathematics skills by practising integration techniques—like u-substitution, integration by parts, and partial fractions—through step-by-step walkthroughs of homework and revision problems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student arrived at a recent lesson without having completed her assigned Optimisation homework, saying she was too busy; as the tutor noted, "she is yet to do last week's homework…as well as other exercise questions." This pattern left gaps in understanding, especially when unfamiliar integration techniques appeared on exams.

In Year 10, another student struggled to start problem-solving tasks independently—without a hint, progress stalled and practice outside lessons remained limited.

For Year 7 algebra revision, one learner frequently confused positive and negative signs: "minor mistakes kept creeping in," slowing feedback and review.

Missed practice or incomplete preparation often meant time was spent re-covering basics instead of advancing new skills.

Recent Achievements

One Kelvin Grove tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 11 student who, after weeks of hesitating to start integration problems, now jumps straight in independently and selects the right method on her own.

A Year 10 student has begun openly asking questions about mock test errors—something she avoided previously—so she can clarify tricky points before her upcoming exam.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who used to rush through worded maths questions now takes time to extract key details before solving, showing real care and accuracy by reading each question twice before answering.

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.
