Ancient History Tutor Cleveland, QLD
The most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is to give them the confidence to participate in class activities outside of the tutoring session. My most valued moments of tutoring my maths student are when she came back to a session and told me that she participated in class discussions and answered questions in class. I believe it is…

Inside Victoria PointTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Taylor practised using the simple and compound interest formulas and tackled multi-step problems involving Pythagoras' theorem and basic algebra.

For Year 10, Jayden worked through trigonometry questions applying SOH CAH TOA as well as bearings and compass directions, reinforcing concepts with real-world examples.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student focused on adding fractions with different denominators and multiplying or dividing fractions, using number lines to help visualise each step.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student often relied heavily on a calculator for even simple arithmetic during algebra lessons—"I am noticing that Scott is very reliant on his calculator for even simple arithmetic problems"—which slowed progress in class and risked weaker mental calculation skills during exams.

In Year 11, one student skipped homework set by the tutor and instead focused only on self-selected revision, meaning gaps identified in class weren't addressed before new material was introduced.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 learner struggled to recall rules from earlier sessions when reviewing fraction operations; this led to confusion as topics became more complex later in the lesson.

Recent Achievements

A Victoria Point tutor noticed one Year 11 student who, after previously forgetting to add units in his answers and losing marks, now consistently includes them without prompting.

In another high school session, a Year 9 student who used to get stuck on multi-step algebraic equations began breaking down each step independently and caught her own errors before the tutor pointed them out.

Meanwhile, a younger student made a shift from needing repeated reminders about rules for multiplying and dividing to recalling most of them herself during practice, only occasionally checking her "cheat sheet."

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 Victoria Point Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Victoria Point State School.
