Science Tutor Mansfield, QLD
I believe that the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is trying their best in teaching and being able to help them understand as much as they can while giving them a fun time.

Inside WakerleyTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 4 student Ben practised addition and subtraction with money, focusing on real-life examples like shopping scenarios.
In Year 9, Chloe tackled linear equations and reviewed core concepts from the curriculum to strengthen her algebra skills.
Meanwhile, Year 11 student Olivia worked through log laws and applications as well as starting differentiation and integration using practice questions for deeper understanding.
Recent Challenges
In Year 9 Maths, interpreting complex worded questions often caused hesitation—one note captured it: "struggled to decide which formula applied in perimeter and area problems."
A Year 11 student working on logarithms tended to rely heavily on calculator shortcuts when stuck with base conversions, sometimes missing the underlying method.
In Legal Studies (Year 12), difficulty structuring research for a domestic violence email meant extra time was spent searching for relevant agencies instead of drafting content.
For a younger student in Year 4, confusion over long division remainders led to incomplete answers and visible frustration mid-task.
Recent Achievements
One Wakerley tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to hesitate on worded maths problems now reads them aloud and underlines key info before tackling each step independently.
In a recent session with a Year 12 student, there was clear progress when she solved integration questions without needing hints—a big shift from relying on the tutor for every stage last term.
Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who previously mixed up "b" and "d" in spelling quizzes wrote out her entire list with zero reversals this week and finished her times tables worksheet without corrections.

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 Wynnum Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Moreton Bay Boys' College.
