I think the most important thing a tutor can do is provide an opportunity for the student to thrive. To establish belief in them, as typically students seek out tutoring as they believe they are not 'good' at a subject. Being the one person there that cheers them on is a powerful thing. Providing alternate methods for students to learn is…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to make sure a student can fully understand topics that have previously been difficult.

Besides imparting essential knowledge of the subject, I think it is very important that the tutor has to show the student a right direction how to study and absorb knowledge, so that in the future they can study independently in college.

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.
