Science Tutor Stapylton, QLD
I think being positive and encouraging is the best thing a tutor can do. With previous students I have tutored, I found that many of them lacked the confidence in themselves, making them less interested in the work and anxious about assessments. But breaking the question/concept down, encouraging them to try, suggesting different methods to…

Science Tutor Bethania, QLD
Ensure that if they are facing significant challenges with a specific topic, that they maintain a growth mindset, and do not orient their attitude to one of self-defeat.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to listen to them and understand their learning style as to understand how to best approach content and exercises. As a tutor, my strengths are that I'm patient and flexible, and I am open to trying as many different approaches and strategies as necessary to help get the content…

Science Tutor Holmview, QLD
The most important thing is to understand the students misconceptions and how to correct the cause of that misconception. To ensure that their fundamental knowledge is corrected before pursuing more complex tasks. It is also essentially to show empathy and respect so they may respect you back and try their best for you. I am empathetic and…

Local Reviews

Olivier has been a great addition to my daughter's learning and understanding of Year 12 Maths Methods. He has helped create her a much better understanding of the concepts and procedural methods involved to move forward with her knowledge and progress in this subject. He is organised, punctual and polite and my daughter's feedback is always positive following her tutorial's with Olivier. I gladly recommend his services as a tutor to anyone in need of same.

Inside StapyltonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Zara explored measures of central tendency by calculating mean, median, mode, and range for new statistics topics introduced at school.

For Year 10, student Daniel tackled basic trigonometry skills and worked through assignment questions involving parabolas, focusing on applying formulas to real problems.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Alex revised key differentiation techniques alongside an introduction to matrices, working through example questions to consolidate both concepts.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student did not complete the assigned maths homework or begin a required assignment, as noted: "needs to prioritize his maths assignment more, because he has not made any attempts yet." This led to missed opportunities for targeted feedback and slowed progress.

In Year 11, another student repeatedly relied on previous worked examples when tackling rounding questions—hesitating to try independently and needing reminders to trust their own reasoning.

For a younger primary learner, frequent distractions during basic arithmetic meant time was spent redirecting focus instead of building fluency with addition and subtraction.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Stapylton recently noticed some encouraging shifts across different year levels. One high school student, after previously struggling with algebraic equations involving multiple brackets, now works through problem sheets with much more confidence and accuracy—she's even started asking for extra practice questions.

Another secondary student, who used to make frequent careless mistakes in maths, has begun double-checking her work independently and can now spot errors without prompting.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who once hesitated to tackle word problems is now highlighting keywords on her own and finishes multiplication tasks without needing reminders.

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 Beenleigh Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Ormeau Woods State High School.
