Being able to teach the content is one thing, but knowing how to teach someone to learn is far more important. People learn in different ways, and engage with different subjects based on their level of interest. As a tutor, the most important thing to do for a student is to teach them in a ways that works for them, and to get them interested in…

The most important thing should be to make the student feel understood and supported. Not every child finds learning easy and so if you can make them feel confident, they will have a much higher chance of succeeding as they know someone is in their corner and genuinely wants them to do well. I am very flexible, so if a student has a certain way of…

It is so important for a tutor to know how a student learns. Some students don't work well with rote learning, so making activities that are fun and engaging is very important. Also, being aware that some students are more visual learners or kinetic learner, so being able to cater to that is extremely important. I believe that I can connect well…

Inside TanawhaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 student worked through Engineering exam content, focusing on bending moments and truss design calculations using a truss calculator, as well as exploring circuit theory and nuclear physics concepts.

For a Year 11 student, the lesson addressed exponential probability distributions with mean calculations and also included practice on polynomial long division and function basics.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student named Rebecca focused on simplifying ratios in maths by working through targeted homework questions together.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 Engineering student relied heavily on school resources, hesitating to take initiative in prototyping and idea generation; as one tutor put it, "he needs to find a way of doing all the processes without relying heavily on the resources available at the school."

Meanwhile, a Year 12 student struggled with planning sessions and keeping written work legible—poor whiteboard layout led to confusion mid-lesson.

In middle years, a Year 9 student failed to bring home materials for revision, making it difficult to revisit key maths concepts before tests.

A younger learner repeatedly left homework incomplete, missing valuable practice opportunities.

Recent Achievements

A Tanawha tutor noticed one high school student now asks questions about steps in problem solving instead of quietly guessing, which is a real shift from his earlier hesitation.

Another secondary student who previously struggled with recalling formulae recently self-rated her confidence on discount calculations as 4/5, up from just 2/5 a few lessons ago, and now applies the right formulas more independently.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner who used to mix up subtraction steps was able to talk through his process out loud and finish all his homework without reminders.

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 Maroochydore Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Siena Catholic College.
