The most import thing a tutor can realise is that everyone has different expectations and preferences for learning and those criteria need to be what shapes how you teach individual students. Just as importantly however, you need to be constantly searching for the root of the problem your student is having; -Is their basic math knowledge…

The most important thing for a tutor to do is build confidence in students. The students that approach tutors are usually ones that are struggling to cope with school and activities, leading to them falling behind on their academics. This can seriously lower their confidence and make them question their abilities. As a tutor, it should be their…

To just listen. As counterintuitive as it sounds, listening is more important than teaching. As a tutor one must fully grasp what the student wants and needs and how they best learn. To be able to pick up on non verbal cues if the student is too shy or uncomfortable to ask for help. Everyone learns best in a different way, so a tutor needs to be…

I believe that as much as it is important to help the child improve and gain confidence, it is also important to build and maintain a tutor-student relationship. This enables students who don't tend to be open in class and speak up when they have questions to openly do so during tutoring sessions. This is something I have been able to achieve with…

I think a tutor has a lot of power in empowering a student and making them love learning and love the subject. If a tutor can reorient a student's perspective of a certain topic and make the student learn it, it enables the student to engage more with the subject and hopefully increases their passion for learning and education in general which I…

First of all, communication is definitely vital in order to engage with tutees.

Inside TallebudgeraTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Bella worked on comparing percentages and identifying simple subjects or predicates in sentences, using targeted worksheets for practice.

In Year 9, Jeremy reviewed Pythagoras' theorem and practiced applying it to right-angled triangle problems, as well as working through exam-style measurement questions involving perimeter, area, and volume.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Jacob focused on the binomial distribution—learning both the probability formulas and calculator functions (pdf/cdf)—and applied these to discrete probability scenarios relevant to his Maths Methods coursework.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 Maths, one student arrived without essential materials—"only reason why this wasn't achieved was because [she] did not have paper to do the calculations"—which stalled progress on area problems.

In Year 11 General Maths, another struggled with formatting working clearly and over-relied on quick estimates for unit conversions rather than methodical steps.

A Year 8 English student avoided editing her PowerPoint for spelling and layout, impacting communication of ideas.

Meanwhile, in a senior exam setting, difficulty justifying answers stemmed from skipping revision tasks set between lessons. Missed opportunities to take up feedback or revise as advised meant confusion persisted into new topics.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Tallebudgera noticed that Jeremy, a high school student who once hesitated with algebra and trigonometry, now independently solves most problems and quickly recognises when he's made an error—something he rarely caught before.

Willow, also in high school, used to get stuck on fraction conversions but recently completed a Year 7 worksheet without needing reminders about the process.

In primary years, Bella has started asking for extra homework on her own initiative and now rereads her writing to check for grammar mistakes, rather than rushing through tasks as she did previously.

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