The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is teaching the student to adapt to and overcome any and all learning challenges by looking at a problem from all angles. I believe in a laissez-faire teaching style, which puts more responsibility on the student to identify their mistakes and overcome whilst giving hints when they could be…

Science Tutor Albany Creek, QLD
The most important thing I can do for a student is give them the ability to be confident in their own knowledge to attack any problem head on. I will never solve a problem for them, however I will always support them and give them the necessary tools to be able to do it on their own. Having been part of the first year of ATAR and achieving a…

As a tutor, I believe that it is important to be patient with students and allow them to grasp the concept on their own, albeit with a firm guiding hand, as I find that this allows the pupil to adopt a more proactive and self-sufficient mindset. My experience with this method often found a great deal of pride and accomplishment within both the…

To me, one of the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to give the student confidence. When a student gains confidence that they can do it, they will be more willing to put effort and also do better in their examinations.

Give them confidence- either to have a crack at new questions or topics, or just continue to work and learn independently. Usually this is achieved by helping students find a way to enjoy the subject. I'm a good communicator and very empathetic.

The most important thing a tutor can do is to listen to the student, as well as teaching. Encouraging the student to provide their input on a topic without having any pretentious predelection will allow the student to become more confident in their learning.

Inside TaigumTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Emily focused on constructing and interpreting frequency tables and histograms for data representation, as well as exploring how to write mathematically when working through her assignment.

Year 9 student Georgia tackled creative writing tasks and prepared for Shakespeare assessments, alongside reviewing key techniques relevant to her English curriculum.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Sasha worked through inequalities and quadratic expressions by expanding and factorising, taking time to review previous content before an upcoming English exam.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Maths, one student was hesitant to ask clarifying questions on assignments and left sections incomplete, resulting in missed opportunities for targeted feedback—"she had all the discussion points but didn't start early enough to ask about what she didn't understand."

A Year 8 student struggled with unit conversions in area problems, relying heavily on notes rather than internalising processes; this slowed progress during unfamiliar exam questions.

In Year 5, unfinished homework meant times tables weren't retained between lessons, so multiplication fluency lagged behind.

For a Year 3 learner, messy written working made it difficult to trace calculation errors or revisit problem steps.

Recent Achievements

One Taigum tutor noticed a Year 10 student who previously doubted her answers now confidently finishing timed maths tests without hesitation.

Another high schooler, Oscar, has shown a real shift by openly identifying which algebra topics he struggles with—he used to keep quiet but now initiates these discussions himself, helping his tutor target lessons more effectively.

In primary, Sasha has started using counting techniques for times tables; she was able to complete an 11-question multiplication test perfectly after weeks of struggling with recall.

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