Tutor Woodend, QLD
The learning space is the most impactful factor for a student's capacity to learn. If they don't feel safe or they don't feel encouraged, they can lose interest and/or disengage. Maintaining this space is the most important thing a tutor or teacher can do for their students. This takes the form of a number of things; the words and tone of voice…

I do not have a standard technique for learning that…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to teach them to figure out the answers on their own rather than showing them the answers.

Inside TivoliTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Sophie focused on mastering the two- and three-times tables and practiced adding three two-digit numbers, with an emphasis on how multiplication connects to repeated addition.

Year 9 student Cale worked through polynomial expressions, binomial expressions, positive indices, and index laws in maths, and also revised essay structure including bibliography and in-text citations for English assignments.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Lucas strengthened his understanding of factorising algebraic expressions and completed revision on report writing techniques for upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student's math assignment was lost due to computer saving issues, directly impacting his grade; as one tutor noted, "he'll need a better system for saving documents."

In Year 11 Maths, inconsistent recall of mean, median, and mode—especially when problems were worded differently—meant extra time spent relearning basics instead of progressing.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student repeatedly relied on hands and counting aids for simple multiplication but grew frustrated and lost focus during longer tasks.

During division work in Year 4, hesitation to write working led to mixed-up remainders and misplaced answers.

Confidence often dipped after setbacks or mistakes.

Recent Achievements

One Tivoli tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 11 student who, after typically waiting for help, has started seeking clarification independently as soon as he feels stuck—he even initiated research for an assessment before the lesson.

In Year 8 maths, another student surprised their tutor by confidently explaining mean, median, and mode without prompting, having previously needed reminders on basic terminology.

Meanwhile, in Year 3, Isla went from struggling to stay on topic in her English writing to independently crafting focused paragraphs; last session she self-corrected her work with minimal guidance.

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 Ipswich Libraries—or at your child's school (with permission), like Tivoli State School.
