Helping the student not only improve their studies, but learn how to better study and learn independently when at home/in school. It's one thing to be working in a short tutoring session, and another to continue the work in ones own time. I am able to empathise with students and work with them on how they learn best (which teaching methods and…

Software Dev Tutor Kelvin Grove, QLD
The most important things to me is to engage, motivate and involve the student with their study. Too many students suffer from sidelining and taking a backseat in education due to a number of reasons. Hence, being able to link a student's passion by showing how education is not a blocker but rather an enabler for their curiousities and wonders is…

Software Dev Tutor Wilston, QLD
Personalising the learning: Every student is different and it is not a one-size-fits-all approach. Catering to the individual student's needs is so important as a tutor, especially as they are looking for help outside of class. I make efforts to understand the student's learning style and modify the experience/class accordingly. Being patient:…

The most important thing is for the tutor to facilitate the learning experience for the student, rather than telling the student what to do. Students shouldn't just learn the content but they should also learn how to understand and research future concepts on their own. I want my students to get a great understanding of the entire concept instead…

I strongly believe that the most important quality of a tutor is be patient, adaptable and compassionate to student's situation. Everyone learns at a different pace and in a different way, and a good tutor must be able to follow each person in their learning process. I have run tutoring sessions with up to 30 students and each and every student…

In my view, the most important aspect of being a tutor is to provide personalised guidance and support to each student. Every student has their own set of strengths, weaknesses, and learning styles. A tutor should identify these individual characteristics and adapt their teaching methods to meet the specific needs of each student. Additionally,…

Inside NorthgateTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Vivaan focused on letter formation and early numeracy skills, including writing letters and numbers with attention to correct shape.

In Year 9, Olivia tackled the surface area and volume of composite shapes as well as applying index laws to simplify algebraic expressions, using diagrams for clarity where helpful.

For Year 11 Math Methods, Liam worked through completing the square for quadratics and practiced graphing parabolas by finding their turning points.

Recent Challenges

A Year 3 student found it hard to settle and stay focused during basic multiplication tasks—one tutor noted, "we didn't really do anything; wouldn't settle down." This meant less time on practice and slower progress with core skills.

In Year 11 Maths, another student relied heavily on the calculator for mean and standard deviation questions, often missing key formula details when entering data.

For a Year 8 algebra session, skipping steps in rearranging equations led to confusion over negative signs and order of operations.

When written work was messy or disorganized, as seen in double-line notebook exercises, mistakes were harder to catch and fix.

Recent Achievements

A Northgate tutor noticed Samantha, a Year 11 student, went from hesitating with trigonometry to asking insightful questions and working through problems on her own.

Another high schooler who previously struggled with completing the square is now solving all related questions accurately and finishing tasks on time without help.

In a recent primary session, Vivaan began openly accepting guidance to improve his handwriting—a shift from earlier reluctance—and now participates confidently in social interactions.

Last week, one student completed every simultaneous equation problem independently after needing step-by-step support just two sessions ago.

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 Virginia State School.
