One of the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to provide a new way of learning and being able to adapt to the student's needs. Whether that is by taking your time with the a particular student, or by encouraging them and pushing them to do the more complex questions. My main strength as a tutor would be my ability to explain a…

Tutors should be able to aid students on a personal level outside the class. I personally consider the ability to be able to break down complex problems into simple structured steps that are tailored to how the student understands, is the most important thins a tutor can do for a student. This will not only allow the student to clearly understand…

Science Tutor Yarrabilba, QLD
The actual academics itself, while being at the core of the tutoring, is not the most valuable aspect. From my experience, most students do not have the care or respect for their instructors, and mutual respect in particular is essential, because mutual trust is otherwise close to impossible for many people. You must find a balance between being…

Nicolas is a very good tutor. He is nice, patient and smart as far as I observe.

Inside South MacleanTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Alex explored displaying data, focusing on histograms and identifying which statistics concepts needed extra support.

In Year 10, Jess worked through trigonometry problems, concentrating on applying relevant formulas in preparation for an upcoming exam.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Alex reviewed how to classify scatterplots and calculate standard deviation—using both manual and calculator methods—and discussed interpreting variance in the context of a real-world assignment on fuel consumption efficiency.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student reported missing marks on a recent test due to not labelling units and graphs, as well as difficulty using her calculator for standard deviation—"most were small errors," she explained.

In Year 9, one student often looked at complex word problems and "didn't know where to start," leading to lost time until each step was broken down together.

For a Year 8 algebra session, skipping steps when converting equations led to repeated sign errors that were hard to catch later.

In senior calculus, uncertainty with rules like the chain rule caused hesitation mid-question, breaking focus just when confidence mattered most.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in South Maclean noticed Diali has started catching her own errors during practice exams, a big step up from last term when she'd rush through without checking.

In Year 11 maths, one student who previously hesitated with worded problems is now breaking them into steps and confidently underlining key details before solving—she even tackled three substitution questions independently this week.

Meanwhile, Alex (Year 7) contributed her own ideas while working through a scatterplot assignment, instead of just following along as she used to. At the end of her session, she volunteered to do an extra question on her own.

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 Jimboomba Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Australian Technology and Agricultural College.
