The most important thing a biology tutor can do for a student is to offer them quality information and direct feedback on their work and areas of struggle. Additionally, a tutor should be humble such that they do not impose their own ideas onto a student, but rather walk alongside the student's journey of learning. This helps to establish a strong…

The most important thing a biology tutor can do for a student is to make sure a student can fully understand topics that have previously been difficult. I do not think it is not enough for a tutor to simply talk through the topic with the student and expect them to understand it. A tutor should explain the topic to the student and then, after more…

If you are a biology tutor, your job is to empower other people. Even if you are picking up blind spots, asking a student to paraphrase something, or advising more research in a particular area, there are ways to convey this information that are encouraging and helpful, (rather than condescending). We all have blind spots, too. I have found…

The most vital thing a biology tutor can do for any student is to ensure comprehension of the topic. Notably, in math. It is easy enough to follow a procedure on how to solve a problem, running through the steps that were taught. However, if a student can understand why those steps are happening, and delve into fundamentals of the problem, then…

I believe tutoring helps students develop a genuine love for learning. There are 2 characteristics a biology tutor needs to achieve this. Firstly, the tutor should have an open and friendly personality. Learning is inherently effortful, and having someone friendly to guide the process makes it more enjoyable and productive. Additionally, tutors…

Local Reviews

Since Diali has started working with Brendan I have seen her motivation to engage in maths skyrocket. Prior, it took a great deal of coaxing to get her to do her homework, let alone to do anything extra relating to maths. Brendan has provided Diali with cause for a notable increase in her enthusiasm, sense of being encouraged, confidence and her incentive to work on her maths. She completes Brendan's assigned homework with enthusiasm (except when she is too tired at the end of the day) and she is practicing her times-tables with less resistance! She is looking forward to her next maths tutorial with Brendan. Brendan has a gentle, helpful and very supportive approach and he relates superwell to children. We are really so happy to have the support of Brendan as Diali's tutor.

Inside DurackTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Amy focused on calculating area, perimeter, and volume for various shapes using her school assignment as practice.

For Year 9, Liam worked through coordinate geometry by finding gradients and distances between points, and also revisited the basics of Pythagoras' theorem with step-by-step examples.

In Year 10, Chloe practiced expanding binomial products and factorising monic quadratic expressions using different strategies to prepare for upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 algebra, a student avoided writing out steps for rearranging equations, which led to missed sign changes and slower progress; as one tutor put it, "he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors."

Meanwhile, in Year 11 trigonometry and matrices, over-reliance on calculators was noted—inputting values too quickly sometimes resulted in incorrect answers or overlooked order of operations.

For a Year 5 unit conversion task, incomplete working made it difficult to track where errors crept in during decimal rounding. The pressure to finish quickly often left calculations only partially checked before moving on.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Durack noticed a Year 10 student who previously took too long rearranging equations is now solving them much faster and even finished their last assignment with only minimal prompting.

Another high schooler has become noticeably more independent, recently choosing which rule to apply for unknown triangle sides on their own instead of waiting for hints.

For a younger learner, initial struggles with adding and subtracting integers have eased; the student now works through integer problems confidently and rarely needs help.

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 Inala Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Australian International Islamic College.
