Science Tutor Kearneys Spring, QLD
Not only is knowing the content extremely important, but the way tutors teach the content is more important. Every student has their own needs, and a tutor must recognise that some teaching strategies might work for some but not work for others. My strengths is my teaching style. I believe my ability to connect with the student allows the student…

Science Tutor Kearneys Spring, QLD
I believe the biggest thing a tutor can do is show the student how to study, meaning how to break down concepts and how to analyze. That way you will always have the tools should you decide to learn something later on in life. I believe I am very patient and take my time to explain things to students. I also like for them to take their time to…

Science Tutor Drayton, QLD
The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to teach and help them to learn. The tutor should help the student develop their own skills by setting a good example. I have lots of patience when it comes to teaching. I never stop until the students got what the topic is all…

Science Tutor Rangeville, QLD
I believe a tutor should take teaching very passionately when doing her/his job as these early days in students life will play important role in their later life. At the same time, I think a tutor should be emotionally intelligent enough to build a good relationship with student so that student enjoys learning. I try explain the science concepts…

Inside Mount RascalTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Kagan focused on area calculations for compound shapes and tackled problems involving triangles, trapezoids, and circles using worksheets.

In Year 11, Tom worked through financial mathematics with annuities and compound interest, as well as concepts in network theory.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Bonnie practised balancing redox reactions in Chemistry—identifying oxidised/reduced species—and explored logarithmic functions in Maths using worked examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student faced a computer crash during a major assignment, losing significant work and highlighting the importance of regular saving and organized digital backups—this led to extra stress right before a deadline.

In Year 10 Chemistry, an experiment's design needed restructuring; "he needs to put the pieces together to develop the final strategy for the assignment," noted one tutor.

At the primary level, a Year 4 student repeatedly left homework incomplete and struggled with organizing working in maths tasks. These patterns resulted in last-minute confusion or gaps in understanding during lessons, leaving some students feeling overwhelmed by basic requirements.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Mount Rascal recently noticed some strong progress across different ages. One Year 12 student, after initially struggling with induction examples in Maths Methods, now systematically lays out responses and even modified his answers when data didn't match expectations—a real shift from relying on "expected" outcomes.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student who used to miss key steps is now working through integration questions methodically and can recognise where feedback should be applied in his responses.

On the primary side, one younger learner—who often lost focus early on—is now completing her homework independently and practising times tables at home 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 or at your child's school (with permission), like Vale View State School.
