Tutoring as a whole is so important in todays society. I believe it is extremely necessary that young students are taught one on one to ensure their success. As someone who grew up with a tutor, I have some of my best memories with my tutor, and I owe a lot of my success to her. It is important that tutors are patient and understanding, while also…

The most important thing a tutor can do is give a student the tools and resources to be able to succeed and learn on their own, and giving them assistance whenever they might need it. My strengths when it comes to tutoring are that I'm patient, understanding, and empathetic. Being patient and understanding are some of the most important qualities…

Modern History Tutor Mitchelton, QLD
As a tutor, I believe that it is important to be patient with students and allow them to grasp the concept on their own, albeit with a firm guiding hand, as I find that this allows the pupil to adopt a more proactive and self-sufficient mindset. My experience with this method often found a great deal of pride and accomplishment within both the…

If you are a tutor, your job is to empower other people. Even if you are picking up blind spots, asking a student to paraphrase something, or advising more research in a particular area, there are ways to convey this information that are encouraging and helpful, (rather than condescending). We all have blind spots, too. I have found it…

A tutor's responsibility I believe is to not only help out the students with their homework, assignments and exams preparation but also be a mentor for them helping them overcome the difficulties faced by them in school, help them to not only make use of their strengths but also accept their weaknesses and make a positive outcome of it.

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to take the time to understand what aspect of their learning is causing them difficulty, and to address it.

I consider encouragement and patience as the most important things a tutor can do for a student.

Having patience is also very important for tutors as some students may not understand a concept and the…

I believe that if a tutor is kind, patient and shows respect, they will see greater results with their students. In order for effective learning, it is paramount to create a distraction-free, positive environment, and prepare well-thought out lessons ahead of time. Lastly and perhaps most importantly, I think that if a tutor is ready to motivate,…

Be patient with them. All students are different but also everyone has the capacity to learn.

I believe that a tutor plays an incredible different role to the classroom teacher. Being a role that has one-on-one interaction with a student, a tutor's most important thing is to focus their practice and method to the individual characteristics of the student. An example of this could be having activities with high intensity and movement for…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to provide a framework for the student to understand the material that suits the student's way of thinking, as in a classroom setting the student doesn't get the opportunity for tailored learning and understanding that they do when studying with a tutor. I can understand more abstract…

He is a brilliant person, and before he worked for Ezymath, he mentored, coached and trained my kids to so well that they basically improved academically. Great tutor indeed.

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.
