Tutors fill a different role than teachers and parents, and that puts them in a unique position to support students. Personal relationships are foundational to student success -- the more connected a student feels to his or her tutor, the more the tutor creates trust and respect, essential ingredients for students to learn well. When a tutor…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is help build their confidence. A student is able to do anything, learn anything but only if they believe that they can do it or learn it. Being friendly, easy going, relaxed and flexible are key to giving a student confidence because without it, they aren't going to progress. I have learn't…

Communication and trust. Where one may be very knowledgable about the subject, if there is no communication, then there would be no point in tutoring if the student does not understand. Trust is also important because the student needs to trust the tutor and listen to them. In this vein, the tutor must also trust the student to focus and work…

Generally, students that seek the help of a tutor are struggling with the approach of their teacher to explaining a certain subject. This creates a cycle of feeling overwhelmed and avoiding the subject.

I believe that while grades are important, they are not always completely comprehensive of a student's ability in a subject.

Inside LabradorTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Sophie worked through **ratio problems** and time zone conversions, also tackling basic probability concepts using real-life examples.

In Year 10, Riley focused on **trigonometry fundamentals** and applying sine, cosine, and tangent rules to solve triangle questions.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Suneha deepened her understanding of **logarithmic functions**—practicing graphing them as inverses of exponentials—and explored differentiation techniques like the product and quotient rules with step-by-step problem solving.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student skipped writing steps in algebra, saying "I can do this in my head," but ended up missing sign errors and struggled to catch mistakes when simplifying.

In Year 7, a student left homework incomplete due to other schoolwork, making it harder to reinforce basic multiplication and division.

One Year 11 learner didn't use test time well—she finished early but left questions blank, missing chances for extra marks.

A senior student in calculus hesitated to attempt new question types, sticking only with familiar practice; this slowed progress with tricky derivative problems and dented her confidence mid-session.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Labrador recently saw a Year 11 student who used to freeze when faced with time series data now confidently analyse and interpret patterns on her own, showing real independence.

Another high schooler had always been hesitant to ask for help but is now openly raising questions during calculus lessons and double-checking her answers instead of quietly guessing.

In Year 7, one student initially struggled with volume calculations and often skipped writing units, but after working through examples together, he started getting the right answers and consistently included correct units in his work.

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 Mobile Library Service—or at your child's school (with permission), like Musgrave Hill State School.
