Give them the confidence and the tools to take their own learning that one level further. I am proficient in determining what a student needs to grow better, whether it be some more basic knowledge or more…

Software Dev Tutor Brighton, QLD
Ideally, I want to instill the same sense of wonder and love that I have for mathematics in the students. This won't work for all students, of course, so failing that I think a tutor should be able to teach a student how to think for themselves - it's one thing to be shown how to get an answer, and it's another thing entirely to be taught how to…

Software Dev Tutor Mcdowall, QLD
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 Griffin, QLD
Number one thing I believe a tutor should do is to show how incredible studying, or should I say learning is, so that they develop a mindset to continuously learn new things for the rest of their lives. I'm very proficient in maths, and was hoping to spread my knowledge to current students of all math…

Software Dev Tutor Albany Creek, QLD
If the tutor can give the student space to figure out the solutions to their problems and only step in once the student shows signs of struggling it is more beneficial for the student as this method will allow the student to learn to solve problems on their own. I am able to adapt my approach to teaching concepts for each student, meaning that I…

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.
