For it's most important for a tutor or mentor to encourage asking. You won't know anything unless you ask for it. More importantly, this builds a person's confidence, which is especially helpful in succeeding. My strengths as a tutor are patience and perseverance. I do not stop until the end goal is achieved. I persist as necessary to succeed, not…

For me, the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to build strong learning foundations and to motivate student to develop a good learning habits. Depending on the student, tutor is responsible to acknowledge student’s weakness and develop a systemic learning program that allows student to absorb understanding rather than…

I believe that as a tutor, the most crucial lesson I can impart to my students is to empower them to freely express their doubts and ask as many questions as they need. Encouraging a questioning mindset and creating a safe environment for curiosity to thrive is paramount. By doing so, I foster their confidence and enable them to actively engage in…

Engineering Studies Tutor South Brisbane, QLD
A good tutor will be able to make a connection with their student, and can understand their individual needs as a learner. I think that if a tutor isn't able to do this, then any knowledge they possess can't be effectively taught. I think a good tutor should also have a strong grasp over whatever they teach, and being able to teach is the biggest…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to make sure there is continual improvement in their work. If there are signs the student is not improving, then it's important to look for weaknesses or anything the student is struggling with and work on those areas. I know at uni, and when I was at school, the feeling of understanding…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is teach them how to think and learn. This is far more valuable for future work and study than any one topic to be learnt. My principle strength as a tutor would be my understanding of how mathematical concepts work, which helps me to explain them. I do this often with my colleagues during…

A tutor should be able to establish rapport and trust by being honest. This is the critical element to a successful tutoring relationship.

I think most importantly a tutor should teach the student how to learn.

My main weaknesses are my limited experience in tutoring and…

Be patient, understanding, and be encouraging! High school is not an easy thing, not just because of what you're learning but also because life must go on outside of school. University students face the same problem, so we know that not all days are great days. So as a tutor, you need to be supportive of your student where necessary, so that when…

I think the purpose of a tutor is to complement and supplement the school classroom learning to ensure that the student has a good understanding of the subject's content, but ultimately a good tutor will develop a student's independent learning ability, and only fill in gaps in a student's knowledge when required. A tutor should guide a student…

Go at a pace in which the student feels comfortable, as going too quickly may be the reason they didn't understand it when their teachers taught them. Following this a tutor needs to have done some work on the subject before seeing the student as if the tutor doesn't understand what he/she is saying, the student has no chance. Also going through…

Inside HerstonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Chloe worked on converting between decimals, fractions, and percentages as well as tackling introductory probability questions.

In Year 10, Sam focused on applying trigonometry to real-world problems and practiced solving simultaneous linear equations algebraically.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Mia explored genetics by discussing inheritance patterns and compared the processes of mitosis and meiosis using diagrams for clarity.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often forgot formulas for area and circumference, needing frequent prompts before attempting questions on circles and triangles.

In a recent algebra session (Year 9), she gave up easily when faced with expansion tasks, showing low motivation and reluctance to revisit earlier feedback or attempt corrections.

For a Year 6 learner, not writing out number sentences in fraction problems made it difficult for her teacher to follow her logic—missteps went unspotted until answers were checked.

During data analysis in Year 10, confusion about which values to use for mean and median led to repeated errors, as she avoided reviewing prior mistakes.

Recent Achievements

One Herston tutor noticed a Year 11 student who'd struggled with algebraic linear equations finally work through problems independently after two weeks of guided practice—a clear shift from confusion to self-sufficiency.

In another session, a Year 9 student who used to avoid asking for help began proactively raising questions about concepts she found tough in class, showing new initiative and ownership over her learning.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student, once hesitant with fractions and decimals, was able to sort decimals and apply methods to different question types on her own during tutoring.

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 Grange Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kelvin Grove State College.
