Tutor Mcdowall, QLD
Helping the student not only improve their studies, but learn how to better study and learn independently when at home/in school. It's one thing to be working in a short tutoring session, and another to continue the work in ones own time. I am able to empathise with students and work with them on how they learn best (which teaching methods and…

I consider encouragement and patience as the most important things a tutor can do for a student. As school can be stressful, being supportive and persistent toward the student is beneficial and can make them more receptive to wanting to learn. Having patience is also very important for tutors as some students may not understand a concept and the…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is teaching the student to adapt to and overcome any and all learning challenges by looking at a problem from all angles. I believe in a laissez-faire teaching style, which puts more responsibility on the student to identify their mistakes and overcome whilst giving hints when they could be…

Being a second person the student can ask for help on things related to the subject, other than their school teacher.

So being able to…

A student comes to a tutor because they struggle to understand the knowledge and they cannot communicate their struggles in school, hence they look up to us.

A tutor or at least a teacher is someone who can give students a helping hand, perhaps a friend is too informal but someone they can relate to.

Inside Chermside WestTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 7 student Grace focused on simplifying algebraic fractions and practiced factorising and simplifying expressions using worked examples.
Year 9 student Liam completed a statistics assignment by constructing and interpreting stem-and-leaf plots, then compared data sets using box plots to analyse spread and median.
Meanwhile, Year 10 student Olivia tackled the start of her statistics unit by distinguishing between categorical and numerical data (including ordinal vs nominal, continuous vs discrete), working through classification questions with real-world examples.
Recent Challenges
In Year 8, a student left key math materials at school due to the swimming carnival and couldn't review speed formula strategies as planned—this delay meant less practice ahead of an upcoming exam.
A Year 10 learner, after receiving quiz results, "didn't fully look through quiz results—will do that next time," missing a chance to address specific errors before moving on.
For a senior student working on biology, mixing up which body system barriers belonged in each line of defence led to repeated confusion across multiple systems; the overlapping topics seemed overwhelming without regular review.
In Year 11 maths, one student forgot to transfer formulas between their grid and lined books: "Could help with remembering what formulas you may need for the exam."
These moments show how organization lapses or not responding promptly to feedback can quietly limit progress or create last-minute stress when exams approach.
Recent Achievements
A Chermside West tutoring session saw a Year 10 student, Skyla, independently prepare questions ahead of time and now actively ask for help—something she previously hesitated to do.
In Year 8 maths, Claudia started recognising mistakes in converting units between lessons and now corrects them on her own during problem-solving.
Meanwhile, a primary school student, Lila, who used to get stuck placing negative numbers on a number line, can now confidently order both positive and negative values without prompting and completed her latest number line activity with no errors.
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 Chermside Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Craigslea State High School.
