The most important things a tutor can do for s student is make sure he/she has outstanding communication skills to be able to communicate whether the student is on the right track with the problem, not on the right track or has solved the problem. Another topic that is important is for a tutor to show patience when the student does not get the…

I believe that the greatest affect that a good tutor can do for a student is to infatuate the student into the subject, meaning to truly engage and interest the student in the topic. Once this happens the student will grow a love for the subject, leading them to career paths regarding this subject. This will more importantly grow a work ethic for…

One of the most important things a tutor can do is instill confidence in their students so they can tackle problems they were previously unfimiliar with on their own, as well as perform in high stress environments, such as tests. The best way to do this in my opinion is to go through practice problems with the students untill they fully…

I touched on some of these points in my previous answers, but as a tutor I believe the ultimate goal should be to provide one's students with an academic toolbox in the form of an understanding of the fundamental principles of any given topic.

On top of efficiently solving problems, a tutor should be able to explain to the students why it is that they are doing what they are doing. A tutor should explain why are they studying a particular topic in mathematics and what is its application. Finally, a tutor should be able to make the student enjoy what they are doing and make students look…

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.
