Biology Tutor Fitzgibbon, QLD
Give them confidence- either to have a crack at new questions or topics, or just continue to work and learn independently. Usually this is achieved by helping students find a way to enjoy the subject. I'm a good communicator and very empathetic. I've always been told I'd be an excellent teacher- my habit is to always make sure a tutee has…

Biology Tutor Chermside West, QLD
Tutors should be able to convey information in a way that not only makes sense, but engages the student. A tutor should be as eager about the subject they are teaching as they are knowledgeable of the topic, and should strive to convey this excitement and passion through their teaching. The ability to help a student not only understand, but love…

I think the most important thing for a tutor is to understand what their student is struggling with and make a plan to deal with the issue at hand. This requires building a connection with students and understanding how they might learn a specific topic. All students are unique and learn differently than other students, which requires the ability…

The role of a tutor is to provide the appropriate resources and teaching strategies based on the student's learning ability. Additionally, a tutor should display compassion, empathy and patience especially when students encounter topics that they find difficult. It is the duty of the tutor to ensure the student can be assisted in a safe and…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is create a close enough relationship with the student so that the student believes they can trust the tutor and not be scared to ask questions, thus maximising the help they can recieve. I think my strength as a tutor is that I was able to get my high grades in high-school through diligence and hard…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to listen. I believe listening is very important since if you don't listen to your student, or get them to explain concepts for themselves, you won't be able to deduce which areas to focus on. One of my weaknesses as a tutor would have to be that if my student is having difficulty,…

From experience some students wants to get through as many questions as possible but I find that, this is not very effective for their learning. I think it is important for them to fully understand each question so they won't make the same mistake again. Also, finding tricks or skills best suited for them will improve their learning greatly.

Helping students understand that they are capable of overcoming their difficulties with the subject. Helping them to identify what they need to improve in order to perform better. Teaching them that their efforts are worth it and that they can achieve their goals if they work hard. Many students give up before trying, so I think this is the first…

Inside StrathpineTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Savannah practiced rounding numbers to estimate answers and worked on converting between metric units while solving measurement problems.

In Year 8, Ruby focused on factorising algebraic expressions and tackled worded ratio and rates questions to prepare for an upcoming test.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Oliver reviewed linear equations by rearranging variables and translating tables into rules, using graphs to visually represent relationships.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student in Methods repeatedly hesitated when using logarithmic laws, often second-guessing which rule to apply; as one tutor put it, "she overthinks and loses confidence partway through each question," leading to incomplete working.

In Year 7, another student struggled to pick out the key details from multi-step worded math problems, sometimes diving in without fully reading the question—this meant steps were skipped or misunderstood.

For a Year 3 learner, written working was minimal on subtraction tasks involving borrowing, so errors weren't spotted until reviewing answers together. Each instance made progress slower and less certain.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Strathpine noticed a Year 12 student who previously mixed up logarithmic laws is now confidently selecting and applying the right rule for each problem, especially with more complex questions.

Another high school win: a Year 10 student who used to skip steps when solving percentage problems has started self-correcting her errors mid-question and showing all working clearly—she even distinguished between discounts and final prices without prompting.

Meanwhile, one of our Year 4 learners who struggled with rounding numbers can now round to the nearest ten independently and even tackled rounding to the nearest hundred on her own last session.

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 Strathpine Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like The BUSY School - Strathpine Campus.
