One of the most important things a chemistry tutor can do for a student is to not only teach content but to be there as a mentor. Exam periods, life and post-school options can all be stressful for students and it is vital that a tutor can mentor students throughout this through stress mechanisms. This, coupled with effective teaching methods and…

I believe that a chemistry tutor should be able to assist in building confidence in their students' abilities and should encourage learning from both mistakes and criticism, as well as taking these aspects in a positive manner. I think that a tutor's job is to both work on their students' educational needs but also build strong soft skills in…

One of the most important things a chemistry tutor can do is motivate the student and help build their love for the subject. Helping the student let go of their fear of the subject can not only help them in the present but also aid them in their future endeavours. I personally am aware of the feeling of fearing a subject but also conquering this…

Chemistry Tutor Townsville, QLD
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…

Chemistry Tutor Cranbrook, QLD
As a tutor it is vital that we make sure the student doesn't resent learning and to achieve this we must be open to how the student responds to different teaching styles and adjust our approach to make it individualised to each student. I believe my strengths include my patience and communication skills. I always found reading a textbook over and…

Chemistry Tutor Townsville, QLD
The most important thing that a 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 my…

Excellent to date. Kyle is on time always, and my granddaughter is learning the maths foundations that she's missing. Kyle is able to show many alternative ways of completing tasks.

Inside Mount St JohnTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Sophia focused on simplifying index laws and calculating order of operations using school test material.

Year 10 student Isaac worked through ionic and covalent bond interactions in chemistry, with practice questions on identifying compound types and writing chemical formulas.

For Year 11, Eve reviewed trigonometry problems from a past exam and tackled similarity and congruence questions, discussing strategies for both familiar and unfamiliar question types.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student did not complete several homework assignments in algebra and graphing, which led to difficulty keeping up with coordinate work. "She could not finish her assigned Homework again," one tutor noted, meaning new concepts built on shaky ground.

In Year 11 chemistry, another student arrived unprepared without an online textbook open; this slowed progress during gas law calculations.

A senior English student struggled to organise assessment drafts and locate updated versions of their tasks—vital feedback was missed as a result.

In each case, missing preparation or organisation directly blocked deeper learning and timely feedback.

Recent Achievements

One Mount St John tutor noticed Eve, a Year 10 student, starting to spot her own mistakes on school tests after reviewing just two textbook exercises together—she now actively pinpoints where she went wrong instead of glossing over errors.

In senior English, Jacinta recently arrived with her essay already drafted and feedback in hand from both her teacher and tutor, showing a big step up in self-initiative compared to earlier sessions when she waited for prompts.

Meanwhile, Lauren (Year 7) has begun asking questions mid-lesson whenever she's unsure about the Pythagorean theorem, rather than hesitating or staying silent.

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.
