The most important thing that a tutor can provide for a student is confidence and motivation. Being a student once myself, I know school life can be very challenging and daunting for students. Thus it is important to yes, provide the student with knowledge on concepts, but on another level building up their confidence in such a way that…

English Tutor Birkdale, QLD
The most important thing for a tutor to do is inspire self-believe and uncover topics that may become a passion for children. From this, tutors should foster a willingness to develop the child's skills and even potentially find a career path or tertiary education option within a specific area. My willingness to listen and respond calmly even in…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to listen to them and find out what they are having trouble understanding and helping them to be more confident. Also, it is important that the student feels the tutor cares about their progress and will take their time to make things easier for the student to understand. I think my…

I think the most important things a tutor can do for a student go beyond just explaining the content. First, a tutor should make the student feel comfortable asking questions — even the ones they think are “silly.†When a student feels safe to speak up, real learning starts. Second, it’s important to focus on understanding, not…

I believe the most important thing I can do for my students is create a space where they are comfortable to make mistakes and learn from them. A tutor should provide a judgement free-zone to help the student view studying as something positive rather than negative. As someone who is currently studying in the field of Engineering, I am fully aware…

The most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is to give them the confidence to participate in class activities outside of the tutoring session.

Very easy to deal with and they were able to find a tutor specific to my daughter's needs. My daughter is already feeling more confident and understanding the work after a few weeks. We are very happy.

Inside ManlyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 2 student Lucas practised skip-counting by twos, fives and tens, and identified even and odd numbers using hands-on activities.

Year 9 student Ava revised index laws and exponential equations, then tackled algebraic factorising to consolidate class content.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ethan focused on differentiation in Unit 3 Topic 2 and reviewed graphical representations of functions, connecting them to real-world problem-solving scenarios.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Maths, a student's over-reliance on practicing only familiar question types between lessons led to missed opportunities for growth in challenging topics—"should spend as much time as possible on it tonight and tomorrow to maximise result," noted one tutor before the final exam.

Meanwhile, in Year 8 algebra sessions, skipping written steps made error-tracing difficult: "writing down the steps of every problem so it's easier to go back and check for possible mistakes" was highlighted.

For a younger learner in Year 3, confusion with regrouping tens and ones surfaced when new drawings appeared in notebooks; hesitation to review these concepts slowed progress during subtraction activities.

Recent Achievements

One Manly tutor recently noticed a big change in a Year 10 student who had struggled to apply algebraic techniques; now he's confidently solving quadratics mostly on his own, often needing just a hint instead of step-by-step help.

Another high schooler in Year 12 moved from confusion about trigonometric functions to independently using sine and cosine rules across multiple problems—she even chose which rule to use without prompting.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student, Lucas, has gone from guessing at regrouping tens and ones to completing addition and subtraction exercises accurately on his own and finishing homework without reminders.

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 Wynnum Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St John Vianney's Primary School.
