The most important thing for a tutor to do is inspire self-believe and uncover topics that may become a passion for children. From this, tutors should foster a willingness to develop the child's skills and even potentially find a career path or tertiary education option within a specific area. My willingness to listen and respond calmly even in…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to empower them with the tools and confidence to become independent learners. Beyond just imparting knowledge, a tutor should encourage critical thinking skills, problem-solving abilities, and a strong sense of self-efficacy in their students. This involves not only explaining concepts but…

A tutor needs to be able to quickly pick up on a students strengths and weaknesses so that they can focus on the correct areas of study. They also need to be able to create an optimal learning environment specialized to that specific student. Importantly a tutor needs to make the learning a fun experience for the student as this is what allows the…

The most important thing a tutor can do for their student is never let them lose their confidence and motivation.

A common misconception within tutoring is the difference between teaching and doing for.

Local Reviews

My daughter had lost all confidence that she could do math and was no longer trying in school. The tutor that comes to see her is encouraging and non-threatening and has managed to change her attitude. It is great to see her improvement. Her tutor is reliable and punctual, and I like that I get a written report of what they have covered each session.

Inside Wellington PointTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Ethan focused on reading comprehension and spelling, while also practising idea development for short writing tasks.

Year 8 student Lily worked through ratios and percentages in maths and explored poetry analysis by discussing language choices in set texts.

For Year 9, Ben tackled factorising algebraic expressions and solved linear equations using step-by-step worked examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student working on algebra skipped showing steps in expansion and factorising, which meant errors went unnoticed until much later, causing frustration.

For a Year 8 English session, independent idea generation lagged; when asked to flesh out essay responses, she waited for prompts rather than brainstorming herself.

In Year 5 reading tasks, lapses in patience led to rushed passages—comprehension stalled whenever tiredness set in.

Meanwhile, a senior preparing for exams struggled with self-management: assignments were left unplanned, so quality ideas didn't translate into well-structured responses under time pressure. These moments left progress feeling patchy and uneven across subjects.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Wellington Point noted that a Year 10 student, who used to struggle with bracket expansion and exam technique, has started applying these strategies independently during practice tests.

In Year 8 maths, one student now chooses problem-solving methods for ratios without prompting—a big shift from relying on step-by-step guidance earlier in the term.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who previously hesitated when sounding out longer words is now tackling tricky vocabulary aloud and sequencing her story ideas with far more confidence than before. Last session, she read through a new chapter without needing support.

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 Wellington Point State School.
