Business Studies Tutor Centenary Heights, QLD
Allow students to build on previous knowledge and expand their knowledge in a fun way. I believe a tutor can scaffold learning for the student so that they can gain confidence from incremental learning tasks. Patience and I am able to adapt to any student's learning style. Also I am able to prepare learning experiences to match the learning style…

Inside Mount LoftyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Tom reviewed annuities and compound interest calculations in financial maths, then briefly explored key concepts in network theory.

For Year 12, Bonnie practised balancing redox reactions in Chemistry—identifying oxidised and reduced species and ensuring electron balance—and also tackled logarithmic functions in Maths Methods.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student worked through area calculations for compound shapes such as triangles and trapezoids using worksheets to consolidate problem-solving skills.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student struggled with integrating functions because "he hadn't written out all parts of the function before starting," making it harder to spot missing terms and leading to lost marks.

For a Year 12 Chemistry assignment, another needed clearer structure—without guidance on layout, the main points were buried, affecting clarity and assessment against criteria.

In Year 5 maths, homework was left incomplete; as noted, "he had not done any of the homework assigned either," so gaps in basic multiplication skills persisted. These lapses meant more lesson time spent revisiting basics instead of building new understanding.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Mount Lofty recently noticed a real shift with a Year 11 student who, after previously struggling to interpret data when answers didn't match expectations, began adjusting his approach independently by analysing inconsistencies and modifying solutions rather than second-guessing himself.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student who often skipped over teacher feedback now recognises the intent behind comments and purposefully implements them in final responses.

On the primary side, one younger student—who used to avoid homework—turned up having practised her times tables unprompted and finished all assigned problems for the week.

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 Highfields Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Toowoomba State High School.
