English Tutor Woodend, QLD
The most important thing an english tutor can do isn't just to lead them to the right answers but help them build confidence and self-motivation. As a tutor, I aim to help students develop independence. For me, a successful teacher is someone who can guide students to no longer needing one. I am quick to identify the strengths and weaknesses of…

English Tutor Bundamba, QLD
I believe the most important things an english tutor can do are to explain concepts clearly, adapt to each student’s learning style, and provide encouragement that builds confidence. A good tutor should be patient and supportive, helping students feel comfortable asking questions while also guiding them to think independently. Tutoring is not…

English Tutor Churchill, QLD
The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to remember their position when they were at their student's age, the difficulties they faced while learning and sharing their experiences with passion to their students so they do not have to face such difficulties while learning. My strengths which may be beneficial as a tutor are…

The most important things I believe a tutor can do for a student is: - being a great listener to ensure that you are providing the most suitable resources to help the student. - being very patient and enabling the students to make mistakes and then showing them where they went wrong and helping them. - making them feel comfortable to make…

English Tutor Redbank Plains, QLD
I believe that the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to always be there for them. As teachers/tutors, it is not all about educating them in core subjects but being there for them through rough times. We have all experienced what it is like to be a student and sometimes they go through some difficult situations and I believe that…

English Tutor Pine Mountain, QLD
As above, affirming their limitations JUST AS MUCH as their strengths - affirm, affirm, affirm! I believe the most fundamental truth is found in admitting and celebrating weakness. I would prioritise my strengths as: - enthusiasm - pedantic attention to detail - strong synthesising skills and understanding across a wide range of…

Local Reviews

I would like to send a sincere thank you to your team for choosing Stefanie Palin into our home. My son, at first, was not keen to have a tutor. However, upon meeting Stefanie from the very first meeting he became keen to learn! Jared`s current maths school teacher has not been able to explain elements of trigonometry. However, after Stefanie showed him techniques he understood within minutes (I overheard Jared saying this). I have found Stefanie to be punctual, professional and very eager to help Jared learn and a lovely lady. If I hear of anyone needing a tutor I will not hesitate to inform them of your company.

Inside Moores PocketTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Lucas practised **two- and three-times tables** and worked on adding three two-digit numbers, connecting this to basic multiplication strategies.

In Year 8, Emily focused on converting fractions to decimals and **adding decimals together**, with extra attention to real-world decimal problems.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Olivia tackled **perimeter and area calculations using diagrams**, alongside reading comprehension exercises linked to practical maths contexts.

Recent Challenges

In Year 3–4 mathematics, several students struggled to maintain focus throughout lessons, especially towards the end—one tutor noted, "she needed a lot of encouragement to do questions near the lesson's end."

For another, avoidance of written working in favour of mental calculation led to repeated confusion between multiplication and division.

In English for Year 5, a student misplaced her homework book and delayed producing it until prompted, resulting in minimal progress during the session.

Reliance on memory aids or finger counting also persisted in basic arithmetic tasks; when confronted with more complex problems or word questions, confidence noticeably dropped and engagement faded.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Moores Pocket noticed Isla, a primary student, was able to redo a previous test and score much higher after working on her mistakes—she only missed one question this time.

In another session, Harrison (Year 10) demonstrated more independence by reading aloud from his report and self-correcting as he went, something he previously hesitated to do.

Ashlee (Year 7) recently achieved a perfect score on her spelling test after struggling with using new words in sentences; she now confidently uses them without prompting.

By the end of one lesson, Isla completed over 14 maths questions in just eight minutes.

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 Ipswich Libraries—or at your child's school (with permission), like Ipswich East State School.
