English Tutor Camp Mountain, QLD
I think the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is not just to teach them content - its essential to help a student become more self-sufficient in the field they are studying, and to teach them how to learn more effectively. For example, when teaching a child mathematics, I view simply teaching the content as not enough, as…

I think the most important think an english tutor can do for a student is teach them to think independently and creatively. A student needs to learn to be able to view things from different perspectives and formulate their own opinions and solutions. I am patient, good at working with children with diverse needs, and I am a creative thinker who…

The most important thing I can do for a student is give them the ability to be confident in their own knowledge to attack any problem head on.

Having been part of the first year of ATAR and achieving a…

As an english 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…

Helping the student not only improve their studies, but learn how to better study and learn independently when at home/in school.

This way, students will be better equipped to handle the rest of their time at school.…

It is important to be cognisant that whilst clear explanation of theory is important to learning, an even more vital constituent element is allowing the student to develop their own intuition and understanding of a topic which can only happen through their own thoughtful practice.

Local Reviews

Our son is enjoying his sessions with Richard. He didn't think he needed tutoring at first he felt he was understanding his maths ok however last week he told his Dad he was pleased because Richard was helping him. They discuss his assignment in different subjects and Richard offers suggestions and our son is finding this very helpful and he is pleased with the results. From my own observations they are getting along very well. Richard is calm he listens and shows an interest in my sons work overall. I'm very impressed with the work being achieved.

Inside Camp MountainTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Sam practised reading time on both analogue and digital clocks and worked through real-life word problems involving time calculations.

In Year 8, Mia tackled surface area of 3D shapes using diagrams and applied her understanding to solve related volume questions.

For Year 10, James focused on solving quadratic equations as well as expanding brackets, with plenty of step-by-step algebraic manipulation for practice.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 algebra, skipping written steps when rearranging equations led to sign errors that only appeared once solutions were checked. "He skipped showing working in the turning point formula, which hid where negatives flipped," one tutor noted.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student faced setbacks in surface area questions by not drawing diagrams for complex shapes—this made it harder to spot missing faces and caused repeated recalculations.

In senior grades, incomplete annotation of axes during data analysis meant results couldn't be fully interpreted against assignment criteria, so time was spent re-labeling rather than refining conclusions.

Recent Achievements

One Camp Mountain tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who used to guess at algebra questions—now, she's pausing to pick out key information and checks her working before moving on.

In Year 8 maths, a student who would avoid worded problems has started drawing diagrams from the questions on their own, making it easier to figure out what rules to use.

Meanwhile, in Year 5, one child who struggled with telling time can now confidently read both "minutes past" and standard formats without prompting and was able to explain the difference aloud last session.

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 Arana Hills Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Samford Valley Steiner School.
