English Tutor Buderim, QLD
Being able to teach the content is one thing, but knowing how to teach someone to learn is far more important. People learn in different ways, and engage with different subjects based on their level of interest. As an english tutor, the most important thing to do for a student is to teach them in a ways that works for them, and to get them…

I am able to explain in depth concepts and problems that I have full knowledge of - especially maths. Although the student may…

English Tutor Alexandra Headland, QLD
It is so important for an english tutor to know how a student learns. Some students don't work well with rote learning, so making activities that are fun and engaging is very important. Also, being aware that some students are more visual learners or kinetic learner, so being able to cater to that is extremely important. I believe that I can…

English Tutor Buderim, QLD
The most important thing should be to make the student feel understood and supported. Not every child finds learning easy and so if you can make them feel confident, they will have a much higher chance of succeeding as they know someone is in their corner and genuinely wants them to do well. I am very flexible, so if a student has a certain way of…

Inside ParrearraTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Summer worked through addition and subtraction using number lines, as well as reading analogue clocks to strengthen her time skills.

Year 9 student Rebecca focused on simplifying ratios and multiplying/dividing like terms, practicing with homework and in-class examples.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Joshua tackled trigonometry concepts including the sine rule and cosine rule, working through targeted questions to build his confidence for upcoming class topics.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Engineering, a student relied heavily on school-provided resources and needed more initiative in seeking feedback and clarifying assignment expectations—"he must actively ask and bombard his teachers with questions or ask more for what they expect/want."

A Year 9 student struggled to keep maths notes organized, making it difficult to revise between class and tutoring sessions.

In Year 7, one learner tended to avoid independent work, hesitating to attempt challenging science assignments without direct guidance.

Missed homework was also an issue for a Year 4 student; no extra math practice was completed last week, leaving gaps in multiplication fluency unaddressed.

Recent Achievements

A Parrearra tutoring session saw one high school student, Joshua, go from hesitating to ask questions to now regularly seeking clarification when he's unsure—he even started doing more study on his own between lessons.

Another tutor noted that Rebecca, also in high school, is getting better at admitting when she doesn't understand a problem and will now identify confusing questions instead of staying silent; this is a big shift from her earlier reluctance.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who used to lose focus during maths tasks stayed engaged throughout an activity about calculating recipe costs and completed all the calculations without distraction.

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