Software Dev Tutor Brisbane, QLD
The most important thing a tutor must do for a student is listening. To me, there's a big difference between listening and hearing someone. Hearing is simply the ability to use your ears. However being able to listen to the student, understanding where they are coming from is a whole new skill. Math has always been one of my strongpoints back in…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to be a supportive mentor, create a comfortable learning environment, and help them truly understand and enjoy the subject.

A tutor should make the student feel supported, understood, and confident. It’s not just about giving answers—it’s about helping them think independently, stay motivated, and believe in their ability to learn and improve. I’m patient, a good listener, and able to explain things in a simple, relatable way. I adapt my approach based on each…

As mentioned previously, a tutor must provide a friendly and proactive environment for which all students can interact with entirely. A student should view their tutor as a friend and have no hesitation to ask any question. Importantly, a tutor should strive to improve a students ability to not only do the work needed but also comprehend the…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to try make difficult content more engaging and easier to grapple with.

While one of the important roles a tutor plays is to help students in their understanding, I believe the most important role is to incentivise and motivate hard work, especially by setting a good example.

Washim has been great. Josephine received C/D marks last semester for Maths and has achieved an A- and a B+ for her most recent exams this term so her time with Washim has been very helpful.

Inside KenmoreTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Kiri began breaking down the Biology syllabus and completed a baseline quiz on genetics and evolution to assess understanding.

In Year 8, simultaneous equations were tackled using both substitution and elimination methods, with extra support for inequalities from earlier in the year.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 session focused on decimal operations—including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division—plus solving multi-step word problems for real-world practice.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student left her notebook at school and still needed to begin organising maths notes separately for home study; as the tutor observed, "writing in random places for each one" made revision less effective.

In Year 12 Chemistry, one student struggled with structuring and planning a report—difficulty meeting deadlines meant feedback could not be applied before submission.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner did not complete assigned homework, impacting their readiness for new topics.

In a senior maths session, over-reliance on calculators led to errors like using the wrong formula without back-checking, which slowed progress during independent practice.

Recent Achievements

A Kenmore tutor recently noticed a big shift with a Year 11 student who started working through stoichiometry problems independently after initially needing each step explained—by the fourth question, she worked out the solution solo.

Another high schooler in Year 10, who previously hesitated to ask for help, now speaks up when stuck and only needs minimal explanation before finishing problems on her own.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who struggled with long division picked it up quickly this week and managed subtraction and division steps smoothly without extra prompting.

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 Kenmore Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kenmore State School.
