I would like to answer this question from the student’s point of view. It’s not important for the tutor to know each and everything but what is important is that if the student is unable to understand a topic and the tutor is also not aware of it, it’s his/her responsibility to give that student the assurance that he/she will try to solve it…

Support them. Sometimes students just need that boost of confidence and support to understand. Frustration in their own learning can often end up being the reason why a concept is not being understood. I was an inclusion support assistant at a primary school, working with various kids with learning difficulties and disabilities. This has given me…

The most important thing a biology tutor can do for a student is tailor their lessons to the student's learning styles. For example, while a tutor may prefer to teach visually, a student may learn best by verbal explanations, so it is important for a tutor to put the needs of the student before their own and show adaptability in doing so.…

Imparting an enjoyment of learning something new.

Tutors are someone who generally help and teach in a way schools might not. Hence, a biology tutor is supposed to be easy to approach, fun, interactive, friendly and must also try different ways to inculcate certain topics into the child’s brain, meanwhile experimenting with different teaching techniques and figuring out the best one.

I think the most important aspect of being a tutor is to assist students in coming up with their own interpretations, especially in english, by expanding their skill set.

Inside AuchenflowerTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Anna worked through fractions and number properties, using visual models to compare values.

Year 8 student Lucas focused on algebraic expressions and practiced solving simultaneous equations step by step.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Chloe revised trigonometry and bearings, including calculating unknown sides in right-angled triangles and applying angle rules to navigation scenarios.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often completed questions quickly but didn't reread them, leading to misinterpretations—he needs to read questions carefully and slowly to prevent easy errors.

In Year 11, another student hesitated to write out working for matrix multiplication, sometimes relying on memory instead of process, which made it hard to trace mistakes.

A Year 10 student struggled with motivation, only continuing tasks after reminders; their focus waned after each question was finished.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student's written work became difficult to follow in multi-step division problems, making it tricky for anyone else (or themselves) to check their reasoning later.

Recent Achievements

One Auchenflower tutor noted a Year 9 student who previously rushed through algebra now takes time to show each step, even voluntarily writing out their working when solving equations.

In a recent high school science session, a Year 11 student who once hesitated to interpret motion graphs is now reading and explaining them with less prompting—choosing appropriate axes labels without help.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner who would avoid asking questions about fractions has started voicing uncertainties aloud before tackling new problems. Last week, she finished all her fraction addition tasks independently for the first time.

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