Apart from teaching study materials and helping students in their learning journey, tutors must assess students' potential and structure their plan accordingly, or else it is easy for students to lose interest in learning and may find learning difficult later. My friendly nature helps students get comfortable with my teaching and asks questions…

Science Tutor Brookwater, QLD
A tutor can provide personalised teaching to students that would not be available in a big classroom environment. A tutor also provides a safe space for students free of judgement where they can ask questions they might not get the chance to ask in class. Tutors also relate to the students and instill a level of confidence that truly improves…

Be there with their student to help them understand what they do know and what they do not know. The first step in teaching for me is to get the student to figure out what they do not understand and help them through it so that they will be able to solve so many more problems. This helps a lot more on exams as questions will not always be the…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to set the student up for success outside of the scheduled tutoring hours. Only so much can be achieved in the allotted tutoring sessions, therefore it is of utmost importance that the student leaves each tutoring session with a clear direction on what to study and how to effectively study…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student extend beyond simply covering curriculum content. First and foremost, build genuine confidence. Many students who need tutoring have experienced repeated failure or frustration in a subject, which erodes their self-belief. A tutor's primary responsibility is to rebuild that…

The important thing that a tutor can provide for a student is a relaxed learning environment. When students are comfortable with owning up to their mistakes and they trust that their tutor will quickly identify the problem and take them through it at their desired pace, then they will be more motivated and appreciative of help in the future. I'm a…

Being able to explain concepts well to a student is arguably the most important thing.

To me, one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to be open and encouraging. Everyone (not only kids) gets embarrassed and scared to ask questions when they don't know what to do -- its our job to make sure they feel safe enough to ask so that they can fully grasp everything in their minds. If one of my students kept…

As a tutor is paid to improve a student's grades and so that's the underlying aim. But what a tutor should really do is teach a student how to learn better and improve. That means reminding them to proofread, read the criteria sheet before and after researching, and set up study plans that work with them (if that's palm cards, end of the week…

Local Reviews

Since Brendan has been working weekly with my daughter I have seen a big increase in her confidence, her understanding and sense of efficacy and mostly her willingness to do her maths which before she found abstract, confusing and "boring". She told me Brendan makes learning maths fun compared to my parental maths tips from "1874" (in her words). The monthly feedback and email support from Ezymaths is more than I had imagined when I thought about a tutor. For us, it is 100% worth the investment.

Inside GoodnaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Ella focused on foundational biology, reviewing key definitions and exploring the basics of ecosystems to strengthen her science understanding.

In Year 11, Jack tackled bivariate data analysis in maths—learning about central tendencies and standard deviation—and also revisited biogeochemical cycles in biology.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Sarah worked through Unit 3 Biodiversity topics by defining core biodiversity terms and practising data test skills with classification and energy flow examples.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Biology, homework completion has lagged and revision is inconsistent; as one tutor observed, "homework not completed and falling behind on tutoring content."

A Year 10 student's written maths work was messy and lacked clear working out, which made it difficult to trace errors—she often gave only answers rather than full steps.

In Year 7 Mathematics, a student did not bring his workbook home or communicate where he struggled, making review and targeted help impossible during the session.

These patterns left gaps in understanding that resurfaced during more complex problem-solving.

Recent Achievements

One Goodna tutor noticed Zadie, a Year 10 student, is now tackling complex trigonometry problems almost independently—she's started creating her own memory prompts and is confidently applying the quadratic formula after only occasional reminders.

In Year 11 chemistry, Lily moved from confusion to working out hydroxide ion concentrations from pH values by herself during the session, asking for clarification only on trickier chromatography details.

Meanwhile, Zebediah in Year 3 has begun openly pointing out words he doesn't know when reading aloud, rather than skipping them as he did before; last session, he completed "The Big Blue Truck" and all his sight words with no assistance.

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 Redbank Plaza Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Francis Xavier School.
