Tutor Carindale, QLD
I think that being able to just help a student with whatever they ask and helping them to improve is the most important thing. Even if their not doing super well, I think that as a tutor if you can help them with just improving and if they can see that improvement, then I've done my job as a tutor. Furthermore, I think its important for a tutor to…

Be a leader. A leader is a role model and a mentor. If a student's teacher is someone they admire and look up to, that student will be more motivated and more open to new ideas. I have a wide range of knowledge in many areas, not just in my speciality areas.I can relate to my students and empathise with their difficulties. I'm also very…

The most important thing a tutor can do is be there for their student, and understand the way that they learn. Understanding where their challenges are and where their strengths are. Understanding what teaching style and environment works for their student and adapting their sessions to suit. It is also important to not judge them based on their…

A tutor must be always be there for a student. To be able to have an open discussion about any problem the student may have whenever. To prevent the student does not push aside the problem because the tutor was not there. I have the ability to analyse the student and pick up on what their main issues, if any, are so that I can swiftly aid them in…

I believe communication is key to learning, and also understanding that different students require different ways of explaining things. Also, i believe that teaching in a fun environment helps with concentration and the students ability to remember new content. I believe my strengths are my knowledge, and my ability to teach in a way where…

Tutor Doolandella, QLD
To me, one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to be open and encouraging. Everyone (not only kids) gets embarrassed and scared to ask questions when they don't know what to do -- its our job to make sure they feel safe enough to ask so that they can fully grasp everything in their minds. If one of my students kept…

Inside MoorookaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Charlie worked on adding and subtracting fractions, as well as rounding decimals using practical examples.

In Year 8, Lily focused on algebraic equations and interpreting number planes, practicing with diagrams to build understanding.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Jacob revised compound interest problems through recurrence relations and applied them to real-life loan scenarios for exam preparation.

Recent Challenges

A Year 7 student often struggled to stay focused during lessons, particularly at the start; as one tutor noted, "he had a very difficult time focussing during this session," which meant he needed more guidance and repeated explanations in basic fractions and decimals work.

In contrast, a senior student (Year 11) left working out incomplete when tackling square roots and complex equations—sometimes forgetting materials or skipping steps—so errors weren't easily spotted.

When it came to applying concepts from examples to exercises in higher-level maths, confidence faltered and progress slowed, especially if previous methods hadn't been retained.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Moorooka noticed that one Year 9 student, who used to get stuck on fraction problems, now multiplies and divides fractions with only a quick prompt, even tackling decimal questions independently.

In Year 11 maths, another student has gone from hesitating on algebra to attempting exam-style questions solo—he recently completed a full module of problem-solving tasks without needing step-by-step guidance.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student surprised their tutor by recalling previously tricky map skills from memory and confidently locating places during the lesson.

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