I think the most important thing is to listen to the student and allow them to feel confident in asking for help. It's important to make sure that the student doesn't feel dumb or like they're being looked down upon when asking a question. It's also important to be honest, if you don't know the answer it's better to tell the student this and…

A student comes to a biology tutor because they struggle to understand the knowledge and they cannot communicate their struggles in school, hence they look up to us. So its very important to understand their problems, get simple solutions which makes it easier for them to grasp and then apply them. I believe my strengths are communication, making…

Helping them complete their work is part of the job. However, the most important thing is making sure students are relaxed. If they are getting overwhelmed they shouldn't be pushed because then it'll make them feel like they can't do it. So tackling their weaknesses at a realistic pace will help them not feel pressured to understand straight away.…

Be someone a student feels comfortable with so they can ask any questions they need without feeling judged. It is also important that the tutor can, of course, answer questions, as well as provide strategies to help the student become a more independent learner in the future. I find it easy to breakdown a concept and explain each step of the way.…

I believe the most important thing a biology tutor can do for a student is to listen. I believe listening is very important since if you don't listen to your student, or get them to explain concepts for themselves, you won't be able to deduce which areas to focus on. One of my weaknesses as a tutor would have to be that if my student is having…

Support their learning without giving away the answers easily so that the student can actually practice while supervised. This not only and proves their understanding, but also allows them to go through all of the processes in problem solving so that they form their own framework to comprehend the subject matter. It is important to do this while…

Local Reviews

Mansi was prompt and polite with me. Genevieve was positive about the lesson and Mansi drew out where her weaknesses were and was patient and encouraging and kept Genevieve on track. Mansi has a great way of communicating and didn't talk down to or make Genevieve feel bad for not knowing the answer and explained the answer a few times, and in different ways.

Inside SandgateTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Bella worked on mental maths strategies and tackled introductory algebra problems.

In Year 10, Georgia focused on developing her creative writing for an assessment and also prepared for upcoming Shakespeare tasks.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Katie explored electromagnetic induction concepts and practiced applying formulas related to electric fields and solenoids.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often hesitated to write down working in algebra, making it harder to spot calculation slips—"when reminded to show steps, she quickly found where she'd gone wrong."

In a senior Physics session, one student arrived without a charged laptop and incomplete experiment data, delaying assessment progress.

A Year 10 student was distracted by upcoming assessments and didn't finish the draft required for their assignment.

Another Year 7 student sometimes lost motivation when multiplication became challenging, which led to unfinished questions and shaky confidence during class discussions.

In each case, small process gaps had ripple effects on learning flow.

Recent Achievements

A Sandgate tutor recently saw a Year 10 student who previously hesitated to speak up now actively asking questions and reasoning through solutions on her own, especially in algebra sessions.

Another high schooler, after struggling with ratios, now remembers calculation steps without prompts and can apply them across new problems.

In Year 5 maths, a student who often lost focus when sick managed to concentrate for most of the session and independently solved mixed fraction addition and subtraction—something she found overwhelming just weeks ago.

One session ended with the student choosing a tougher problem herself rather than waiting for direction.

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