Modern History Tutor Ferny Hills, QLD
Help them not only understand the individual questions they need to do to pass the exam - but understand the reason behind what they are doing and why it’s important to understand. I find they are more excited to learn if they understand the reason why they are doing the work. I think that I am good at correction and finding different ways to…

Modern History Tutor Everton Hills, QLD
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…

Modern History Tutor Mitchelton, QLD
As a 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 both the…

Modern History Tutor Cashmere, QLD
Always be a support system academically for their student and listen to their concerns and questions. It is also important to be adjustable and able to adapt to any changes of learning styles for a student. However, the most important thing for a tutor to do is to always believe in them and their ability. I am very patient and good at problem…

Modern History Tutor Samford Valley, QLD
I believe that teaching students how to become a more independent learner is the most important thing that a tutor can do. As a tutor, it is important to help guide students through their work but not become a crutch that they rely too heavily upon. This way, students will be better equipped to handle the rest of their time at school. Helping…

Modern History Tutor Camp Mountain, QLD
I think the most important thing a 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 if you…

Modern History Tutor Bridgeman Downs, QLD
Adjusting their teaching style to suit the way that student learns. Sometimes, explaining the content for a long time will work, but most of the time it doesn't. Including the student in the lesson is very important. I used tutoring in highschool, so I have a good idea of how to frame my lessons and adjust…

I'm very happy with Jon and the whole tutoring experience that our son has received from him.

Inside DraperTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student James worked through solving **simultaneous equations** and was introduced to trigonometry using right-angled triangles.

For Year 10, Priya practiced **critical path analysis** within decision networks and revised matrix addition and multiplication.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Marcus focused on **compound interest calculations**, including creating compound interest tables and rearranging related formulas for test preparation.

Recent Challenges

Did not complete any work on his assignment even though the due date is Monday next week.

In a senior class, one student relied heavily on shortcuts to answer compound interest questions but found this led to errors with more complex scenarios.

A Year 10 student skipped discussing unclear algebra steps with their teacher, so confusion persisted—could have discussed things with teacher more, needs ask more questions.

Missing homework and avoiding feedback left exam revision less effective and increased last-minute stress.

Recent Achievements

A Draper tutor recently saw a Year 11 student who used to rely on memorising formulas begin to confidently rearrange equations and choose the right formula for each problem, especially with compound interest—something he'd previously avoided.

Another high school student started actively setting out assignments independently, rather than waiting for step-by-step guidance, after struggling to organise his work in earlier sessions.

In primary years, Tayla shaved her times tables speed from six minutes down to just two; she finished her last set without any hints and immediately asked for a more challenging round.

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 Albany Creek Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Samford State School.
