English Tutor Highgate Hill, QLD
Beyond the learning of a specific subject, which may appear to be the main goal of tutoring to some, the most important things I believe a tutor can do for a student is to offer an enjoyable experience of learning. The school system can be difficult and it can be easy for students to lose motivation and interest in learning. A tutor can provide…

In my opinion, the tutor's responsibility is to reaffirm the knowledge the student has already gained in school or help those who are behind. Considering this, I would say the most important thing is to understand and be patient with the student and help them to progress step by step. I am able to communicate with a wide range of age groups. My…

A tutor can explain the practical applications of the subject he or she teaches in real life. As a tutor I can make my students visualise the concepts which cannot be grasped instantly.

I believe that themost important thing a tutor can do for a student is to pass on tips and tricks from their schooling experience rather than just hand out textbook knowledge - anyone can do that. Little tips and tricks as well as talks about future plans are going to help students more in the long run as well as teach them niche studying habits…

Inside Dutton ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Ruby focused on calculating surface areas of prisms and using the Pythagoras theorem to solve for missing dimensions in measurement problems, working through homework exercises.

For Year 11, Tahlia practised identifying parameters for trigonometric sine and cosine graphs and interpreting these from both equations and graphical representations.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Lachlan tackled integration of functions involving general rules for sine and cosine, as well as evaluating trigonometric functions at various angles.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10, one student skipped over back-checking algebra steps in index laws—"she almost solved the question perfectly but simply made small algebraic errors," a tutor noted.

In Year 8 mathematics, written work sometimes stayed in the head rather than on paper; this meant diagrams and step-by-step layouts were missed, making geometry problems harder to track and correct.

For a senior chemistry assignment, a student delayed starting until close to the deadline, leading to rushed planning and confusion between improvement sections.

These habits led to extra stress or lost marks that could have been avoided with clearer process routines.

Recent Achievements

A Dutton Park tutor recently noticed a big shift in one Year 11 student, who arrived with her assignment already attempted so she could target specific questions—something she never used to do.

Another high schooler who'd struggled with exam problem-solving was able to finish all her homework problems on her own and even caught minor errors without prompting.

In a younger session, a primary student who used to hesitate now read the next chapter aloud independently for the first time.

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 Fairfield Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Brisbane South State Secondary College.
