English Tutor Mount Lofty, QLD
Listening carefully comes first. All other things can follow from listening. From listening I can understand their vocabulary, grammar level, sense of language and so forth. After this, I can firstly adapt my language to them and then secondly, design specific exercises to take students into better habits so that they can express themselves as…

English Tutor Kearneys Spring, QLD
Not only is knowing the content extremely important, but the way tutors teach the content is more important. Every student has their own needs, and an english tutor must recognise that some teaching strategies might work for some but not work for others. My strengths is my teaching style. I believe my ability to connect with the student allows the…

English Tutor Drayton, QLD
The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to teach and help them to learn. The tutor should help the student develop their own skills by setting a good example. I have lots of patience when it comes to teaching. I never stop until the students got what the topic is all…

Nick has been excellent for our son and has taken him from grade E in maths to now achieving B's. Our son has become much more confident in his maths and is now able to tackle difficult questions without hesitation.

Inside Centenary HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Alex revised algebra basics by practising opening brackets and solving word problems, and also strengthened skills with integer operations.

For Year 10, Mia worked on quadratic functions using completing the square as well as tackling area calculations for compound shapes like triangles and circles.

Meanwhile, a senior student in Year 12 focused on financial maths—covering annuities and compound interest—and reviewed chemistry concepts such as balancing redox reactions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student arrived without completing any homework, which meant time was lost reviewing unfinished material instead of progressing.

In Year 11, as a tutor noted, "he had not done any of the homework assigned either," leading to gaps when tackling new Statistics concepts.

Another senior student struggled with organizing schoolwork—notes were scattered and tasks forgotten.

For a Year 5 learner, written work in multiplication remained messy; steps were skipped or jumbled when tired.

In one case, a Year 10 student avoided writing full working for algebra problems—errors stayed hidden until marked, delaying feedback and progress.

Recent Achievements

One Centenary Heights tutor noticed a Year 9 student who used to get distracted and make careless mistakes now pausing to check his work—he finished today's problems with far fewer errors than usual.

In a recent high school session, a Year 11 student who had previously hesitated to ask for help began actively raising doubts during algebra, working through questions out loud instead of staying silent.

Meanwhile, a primary student showed real initiative by completing all her assigned times tables before the lesson and tackled new ones with noticeably more speed than in previous weeks.

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 Highfields Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Centenary Heights State High School.
