I beleive the most important thing a tutor can be is have a sound knowledge of the feiled so that they can answer any questions. I think it is also very important to be friendly and to make the learning fun and more easier to be retained in your memory. My strengths would be that i have a high attention to detail and that i am very practical. I…

A tutor should be able to establish rapport and trust by being honest. This is the critical element to a successful tutoring relationship. Being patient is also very important as what might be obvious and easy for a tutor may not be for that student. Being a good listener is another essential characteristic that a tutor must-have, as it's vital to…

Engineering Studies Tutor Highgate Hill, QLD
I think most importantly a tutor should teach the student how to learn. Other than having a passion and knowledge of the material; I think it's also important to be a good listener and be able to pick up whether the student really understands, tailoring your approach to the student. My main weaknesses are my limited experience in tutoring and…

Kim

Engineering Studies Tutor Highgate Hill, QLD
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is teach them how to think and learn. This is far more valuable for future work and study than any one topic to be learnt. My principle strength as a tutor would be my understanding of how mathematical concepts work, which helps me to explain them. I do this often with my colleagues during…

Engineering Studies Tutor Auchenflower, QLD
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to make sure there is continual improvement in their work. If there are signs the student is not improving, then it's important to look for weaknesses or anything the student is struggling with and work on those areas. I know at uni, and when I was at school, the feeling of understanding…

Inside ClayfieldTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Fractions practised basic multiplication and division, then moved into highest common factor (HCF), lowest common factor (LCF), and introductory percentages using real-life examples.

In Year 8, Ethan focused on graphing straight lines by identifying points and gradients, along with reinforcing multiplying integers through step-by-step exercises.

For Year 10, Jasmine worked on quadratics—finding turning points, x- and y-intercepts, and sketching graphs to visually understand how equations translate to curves.

Recent Challenges

In Year 4, a student's lack of confidence in mental arithmetic led to hesitation when tackling multiplication problems—"he second guessed himself here and there," one tutor noted, so simple calculations took longer and errors crept in.

For a Year 10 learner working on rearranging algebraic equations, skipping full written steps meant mistakes went unnoticed until the very end.

Meanwhile, a Year 12 student drafting an assignment missed opportunities to use feedback effectively; notes from their draft weren't fully incorporated, resulting in repeated small errors across multiple attempts. This left them feeling frustrated as similar mistakes resurfaced in later tasks.

Recent Achievements

One Clayfield tutor noticed a Year 11 student who had previously hesitated to explain her maths thinking now clearly sets out and justifies each step in her assignment solutions, even writing down assumptions for clarity.

In a recent session with a Year 9 boy, the tutor saw him try new strategies on challenging geometry problems instead of waiting for hints—he's begun tackling parallelograms and triangles independently after months of needing guidance.

Meanwhile, an upper primary student who often guessed at arithmetic now pauses to identify mistakes before moving on, recently catching his own error while plotting points.

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 Nundah Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Clayfield College.
