I believe that a good teacher will prioritise the mindset of their student(s) before attempting to actually teach them anything. To enter the flow state prior to gaining knowledge is, in my view, of utmost importance. A tutor should find a way to ensure that their student is enjoying the learning experience. One example is, rather than explaining…

The most important thing you can do for a student is usually to inspire them, as this is the number one key to success and personal growth for them in a subject, in my opinion. Allowing students to appreciate beauty and simplicity links the value of the topics to their work in it. Of course, some students are already very passionate so for them…

Physics Tutor Townsville, QLD
The most important thing that a physics tutor can do for a student is to engage the student in a way which makes them want to keep learning that specific subject if not fall in love with it. At the end of the day motivation must come from the student themself and as a tutor I believe it is my job to help the student find that motivation. I believe…

Local Reviews

Ara and Steven are getting on well. I think it has helped just having someone to ask questions of outside the classroom setting. Also getting an alternate explanations is helping her really click on concepts. She is well advanced on her assignment which she has worked through with Steven. Seems to be more confident to back herself as well.

Inside Mount LouisaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Isaac focused on naming ionic and covalent compounds in Chemistry, as well as balancing chemical equations through practice questions.

For Year 10, Sophia worked through complex algebra by expanding brackets and solving equations, with additional attention given to factorising quadratic expressions.

Meanwhile, Year 7 student Eve reviewed Pythagoras' theorem for finding side lengths and tackled basic trigonometry concepts, using diagrams to clarify angle relationships in triangles.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student missed several homework tasks in algebra and graphing, which led to gaps in practice—"Sophia could not finish her assigned Homework again."

In Year 10 chemistry, one student arrived unprepared without the online textbook open; this slowed progress through gas laws.

A senior English student's drafts showed issues with cohesion between sentences and paragraphs, making arguments less clear.

Another senior struggled to locate the latest version of an assessment during a science planning session, delaying targeted feedback.

When homework or resources are incomplete or disorganised, valuable lesson time is lost chasing basics rather than building mastery.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Mount Louisa noticed that a Year 11 student, Eve, has started pinpointing her own mistakes on test questions—she now actively recognises where she went wrong after reviewing exercises together, rather than just accepting errors.

In another session, Jacinta (Year 10) brought a revised essay draft that clearly reflected feedback from both her teacher and the tutor; this level of initiative hadn't been shown before.

Meanwhile, a younger student, Sophia, recently solved all her division problems without any prompts for help—a real shift from needing step-by-step guidance last term.

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 Citylibraries Aitkenvale—or at your child's school (with permission), like Calvary Christian College.
