A tutor needs to provide encouragement and support to guide students to a point where they can thoroughly understand the material. It is vital that a chemistry tutor also has an extensive understanding of the subject matter to guide the student. I believe that I am able to explain difficult concepts easily and in an understandable way. I tend to…

I think it is very important that a chemistry tutor really listens to what their student needs in order to cater to these needs. I always like to ask my students how they usually study and what they have found works best for them. I also like to introduce my students to other methods of learning that I believe may be beneficial to them, when…

Making sure the student actually understands the content being taught. A lot of students have been in that situation where a teacher may ask the student whether they understood the topic presented, and even if they didn't, they would say they did to not slow the class down or bring attention to themselves. This is what tutoring in my belief should…

It is very easy for students to feel disheartened if initial targets are not achieved, and hence as a chemistry tutor it is important for me to continue motivating students to reach their goals. In addition, no person is the same so every student tutored will have different strengths and weaknesses. As the tutor I would cater for the differences…

I think the most important thing a chemistry tutor can do is to equip a student with critical thinking skills relating to HOW to approach a problem. If a student can frame a problem, or recognize which tools are appropriate, then the rest becomes much more manageable. - I have a good knowledge of subjects, and their applications. - I can often…

I believe tutoring helps students develop a genuine love for learning. There are 2 characteristics a chemistry tutor needs to achieve this. Firstly, the tutor should have an open and friendly personality. Learning is inherently effortful, and having someone friendly to guide the process makes it more enjoyable and productive. Additionally, tutors…

Inside UnderwoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Hannah focused on multiplication using the vertical algorithm and practiced adding fractions with the butterfly method for clarity.

In Year 7, Jayden worked through converting between fractions, decimals, and percentages, and reviewed exam-style multiple choice questions to build confidence.

For Year 10, Sophie developed her research investigation skills in science while exploring disease and pathogens as part of her biology learning goals.

Recent Challenges

In Year 4 mathematics, one student often guessed answers for multiplication and word problems instead of using drawings or working out on paper. As a tutor noted, "she doesn't use drawings to assist her with many multiplication questions even though I constantly tell her that it will help," which led to small but repeated errors and loss of confidence during sessions.

In Year 11 Biology, another student's notes sometimes missed key learning goals and draft work was incomplete—this made targeted feedback difficult and delayed improvements in their assignments. Moments like these left students frustrated when they couldn't spot where they'd gone wrong.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Underwood recently noticed a Year 9 student who previously struggled to organise her science assignments now independently breaks down research tasks and completes each section of her report without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student who used to guess at decimal conversions now carefully checks how many places to move the decimal point when converting between litres and millilitres, catching her own mistakes along the way.

In primary school, one child who once needed help reading analogue clocks read the time correctly on their own by the end of the session.

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 Logan North Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Eight Mile Plains State School.
