PDHPE Tutor Mermaid Beach, QLD
Most students end up investing in a tutor as they have not been taught the skills to synthesise concepts and study themselves. My aim as a tutor is to inspire students to be independent learners by providing them with the supplies, support, and motivation to continue what they have learned by themselves at home. Tutoring only occurs for a short…

PDHPE Tutor Main Beach, QLD
Obviously bumping up grades.
But before that comes there is the massive component where the tutor is able to let the student feel like they actually know what they're doing. Instilling confidence in someone and helping them to not feel dumb can change the way they approach learning and improve everything about their academic life. Coming from…

Gabrielle
PDHPE Tutor Highland Park, QLD
One of the most important things a tutor can do for the student is to be flexible in their teaching methods and approaches to learning/teaching content as there are so many different learning styles out there and they are there with us because they may be having trouble with the teaching methods used at school. In those cases in particular, it's…

PDHPE Tutor Robina, QLD
I think a tutor has a lot of power in empowering a student and making them love learning and love the subject. If a tutor can reorient a student's perspective of a certain topic and make the student learn it, it enables the student to engage more with the subject and hopefully increases their passion for learning and education in general which I…

Inside BenowaTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 8 student Alex revised clock terminology and the 24-hour clock, then practised converting between fractions, percentages, and indices using test examples.
For Year 10, Chloe focused on factorising and expanding binomials as well as solving algebraic equations step-by-step.
Meanwhile, Year 12 student Ethan worked through redox reactions in Chemistry and tackled logarithms, applying theory to practice questions for deeper understanding.
Recent Challenges
In Year 10 Science, one student hesitated to attempt questions independently before sessions—"doesn't want to try the question before with me as doesn't want to do it wrong"—which led to slower progress on assignments and built up anxiety around mistakes.
A Year 11 student in Maths repeatedly wrote down the wrong formula when tackling trigonometry problems; confusion persisted during revision, making it harder to correct errors efficiently.
In Year 8 English, untidy handwriting and incomplete assignment drafts meant feedback was hard to act on.
Meanwhile, a Year 6 student lost focus at session starts, needing extra reminders just to organize materials and begin work.
Recent Achievements
A tutor in Benowa recently noticed a Year 11 student who used to rush through algebra is now carefully showing all working and checking steps before moving on.
In a senior chemistry session, another high schooler who previously mixed up equations surprised his tutor by recalling the right formulas for titration problems without prompting.
Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who was hesitant to speak up started rephrasing maths concepts herself and answering questions aloud during her Benowa tutoring lesson.

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 Mobile Library Service—or at your child's school (with permission), like Benowa State High School.
