English Tutor North Toowoomba, QLD
Listening carefully comes first. All other things can follow from listening. From listening I can understand their vocabulary, grammar level, sense of language and so forth. After this, I can firstly adapt my language to them and then secondly, design specific exercises to take students into better habits so that they can express themselves as…

English Tutor Kearneys Spring, QLD
Not only is knowing the content extremely important, but the way tutors teach the content is more important. Every student has their own needs, and an english tutor must recognise that some teaching strategies might work for some but not work for others. My strengths is my teaching style. I believe my ability to connect with the student allows the…

English Tutor Drayton, QLD
The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to teach and help them to learn. The tutor should help the student develop their own skills by setting a good example. I have lots of patience when it comes to teaching. I never stop until the students got what the topic is all…

I have had feedback from our daughters teachers and just her attitude alone has improved which means her confidence is increasing since Avdiy has been helping her out.

Inside HarlaxtonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Tom focused on integration techniques and tackling area under curve questions from worksheets.

For Year 12, Sam worked through balancing redox reactions in Chemistry and explored proof by induction in Specialist Maths, using QCAA examples for clarity.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Bonnie practised calculations of compound areas—including triangles and trapezoids—and solved a range of area problems to build confidence with geometry basics.

Recent Challenges

Repeated Zoom sound issues for a Year 11 student led to missed instructions and gaps when clarifying log manipulations in chemistry.

He needed guidance on assignment structure, as this was his first for the subject; using marking guides and teacher resources was essential.

In Year 7 maths, homework was left incomplete several times—when asked about missing tasks, the response showed a need for better organisation and study routines.

A Year 4 student struggled to focus during lessons and avoided practising multiplication tables at home; distraction made it difficult to build strong basics before moving ahead.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Harlaxton recently noticed a Year 12 student who, after previously struggling with mathematical induction examples, managed to work through trickier questions independently and even modified his answers when the data didn't match expectations.

Another high school student has become more systematic in laying out responses for networking and optimisation problems—an improvement from earlier sessions where his working was scattered and hard to follow.

Among younger students, one primary learner is now consistently completing homework before lessons and talks through algebra steps out loud instead of staying silent or guessing.

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 Highfields Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Downlands College.
