The most important things I can do for, and with, a student as a tutor is are being able to set realistic goals, work towards and track progress towards those goals, and celebrate achievements together. Tutors must know the content that they are teaching, and refresh their knowledge in their own time if they are unsure of something. Additionally,…

I believe that a tutor must guide the student to learn independently by introducing different methods and techniques to learn. This is because an hour or two of supervised study in a week is not sufficient to learn and excel in a subject. Further, in this modern world with ever expanding technology there are many avenues to study and learn the…

Inside Tallebudgera ValleyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Bella focused on converting between fractions, decimals, and percentages as well as writing analytical sentences about how advertisements use language to persuade.

In Year 8, Will worked through coordinate geometry—covering translations, reflections, and rotations on the Cartesian plane—and reviewed exam topics such as area and volume using example problems.

Meanwhile, Jacob in Year 11 tackled binomial probability distributions with calculator functions (pdf/cdf) and practiced applying the normal distribution to solve internal assessment questions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often relied on verbal explanations during English due to technology issues; as a tutor noted, "to improve would be to test her spelling and grammar by writing her answers down."

In Year 10, another student did not revise assigned material between sessions, impacting his ability to justify statistics conclusions or recall content for new topics.

A Year 6 student struggled with structuring written responses in paragraphs—her PowerPoint required editing for formatting and clarity.

In one senior session, a student forgot paper needed for area calculations; this halted progress mid-task and left concepts incomplete until the next lesson.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Tallebudgera Valley recently noticed some great shifts across different year levels.

In high school, Jacob moved from confusion about using the normal inverse function on his calculator to confidently applying it and rearranging the standard deviation formula without help—a big turnaround after struggling last month.

Will, another high schooler, now reliably shows all his working for algebraic problems and includes units in his answers, whereas before he often skipped steps or left answers incomplete.

For a Year 6 student, Bella has started actively asking for extra homework and now re-reads her writing to catch grammar mistakes—something she used to avoid entirely.

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.
