Science Tutor Bridgeman Downs, QLD
I believe a tutor shouldn't just focus on helping out their students during sessions. Tutors should be focused on making plans before their sessions, learning from their students' strengths and weaknesses. They should be passionate about their students' grades as much as their own. My strengths as a tutor include: - Taking notes of students'…

If a student is confident in their ability to learn and comprehend information, they feel that they have options and their anxiety toward their educational career completely changes. I am compassionate and patient. I love simplifying information for students and giving them a higher confidence both in themselves and their ability to…

The best thing a tutor can do for a student is it reduce the fear of studying/learning a subject. Mathematics is a tough subject and it is important tutors take the right approach when they teach that subject. I am a huge believer in teachers being friends with their students. My biggest strength is that I get along with students and try and…

I believe giving the student confidence is so important as no matter how well you teach them if they believe they can't do it they won't succeed. I always try to start my students off with more basic questions to give them that bit of confidence before working with them to solve the more complex questions. I'm known for being a happy and…

Helping the student not only improve their studies, but learn how to better study and learn independently when at home/in school. It's one thing to be working in a short tutoring session, and another to continue the work in ones own time.

Helping them complete their work is part of the job. However, the most important thing is making sure students are relaxed. If they are getting overwhelmed they shouldn't be pushed because then it'll make them feel like they can't do it. So tackling their weaknesses at a realistic pace will help them not feel pressured to understand straight away.…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help the student learn in a way that works for them. Usually in a classroom, due to the overwhelming number of students, teachers aren't always able to help students individually. Therefore, sometimes a student that is struggling is only struggling because they learn better with a…

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.
