A tutor must be patient as well as motivating for their students. They must be organised and have a well structured plan to support their students while still being open to their ideas and opinions. The tutors must also be good problem solvers in order to assist students with their studies. An effective tutor will always encourage independence and…

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to develop their problem solving skills.

I think that I am very good at…

Tutoring is a noble occupation. My experience with the previous tutoring has taught me many things that can be really important for a student. Not every child is able to cope with his/her studies and routine. Being a student of Psychology, I prefer encouraging and motivating them to do better each day. Some students tend to trigger their fear of…

I would consider the most important thing to be giving them the confidence in their own abilities. I think it can be very easily for kids to doubt themselves but having an english tutor can give them nourishing support that will help them in the subject and hopefully extend outside of that as well. My flexibility allows the lesson to flow in…

Aside from teaching the content in an understandable and logical manner, I also think that an english tutor should try to inspire a student to become a self-directed and motivated learner. Such a transformation creates the best performing students because they no longer overly rely on the tutelage of others. Rather, they learn to handle a variety…

I believe that while grades are important, they are not always completely comprehensive of a student's ability in a subject. If the student is able to walk away from a session being able to understand the concept and feel interested and confident with it, they not only will gain better results in exams but will have a better idea of the subject as…

I think the best tutors teach at a speed that the student requires. If an english tutor is impatient, not only does it reduce what the student learns but also discourages them from asking for help. Tutors need to accommodate each specific student, as each one is different. I have been studying for a Bachelor of Law/Arts for the past four years.…

Local Reviews

My daughter has been tutored by Gabrielle for two months now. Having failed her previous Biology test, we decided she needed some help. Gabrielle quickly established a great rapport with my daughter, which was very important, as my daughter does lose track of things when she feels anxious or lost. Gabrielle recognised that my daughter needed help in report writing, and worked with her on that as well as Biology. My daughter made immediate improvement, and went on to ace her end of year Biology test. All credit goes to Gabrielle; I highly recommend her to anyone.

Inside CoombabahTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Lily reviewed and edited her English assignment draft, focusing on refining content and responding to task sheet feedback.

Year 11 student Sam consolidated new Biology term material and worked through trigonometry problems in preparation for an upcoming maths exam.

For Year 12, Jack revised commission, piecework, and royalties for a General Maths assessment using targeted exam questions, then created Biology flashcards aligned with key learning objectives.

Recent Challenges

Ongoing difficulty translating creative ideas into writing—she could verbally tell a story, but "could not translate that onto the page." Even with prompts, the blank page caused hesitation and slow progress; suggested margin notes and daily fiction reading have yet to become habit.

In Year 12 Biology, assignment feedback was not fully addressed: working backwards from teacher comments helped, but grammar issues lingered because reading recommendations weren't followed.

For a Year 8 maths student, confusion stemmed from disorganized working—formulas and steps were jumbled across pages, which made tracking errors harder during revision sessions.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Coombabah noticed Holly has become much more proactive in her learning—she recently reached out to her biology teacher on her own for feedback and sought extra maths revision questions, which she hadn't done before.

Kirsty, after struggling to connect with readers in her essays, achieved a 20/25 by independently applying new strategies like leading with character and using literary devices drawn from her fiction reading.

In Year 4, Jack began self-editing his sentences without prompting and asked to be timed on compound word activities, showing a real shift toward taking initiative in his learning.

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 Runaway Bay Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Coombabah State School.
