Tutor Taringa, QLD
A tutor must not only teach the student the concepts that they are learning at the present time but also guide them in being able to learn efficiently for their work in the future. It is important to develop good habits early on so that a student may progress further in their learning. I believe that I am able to relate to students very well in…

Tutor St Lucia, QLD
Be a calming presence. Learning something is difficult, and there is enough pressure and competition at school already. A tutor should provide a comfortable environment for a student to learn at their own pace without feeling inadequate or behind I'm patient, and I also try and make my teaching as real world applicable as possible - it helps the…

For it's most important for a tutor or mentor to encourage asking. You won't know anything unless you ask for it. More importantly, this builds a person's confidence, which is especially helpful in succeeding. My strengths as a tutor are patience and perseverance. I do not stop until the end goal is achieved. I persist as necessary to succeed, not…

A good tutor, in my opinion, is the one who can make students interested in topics. I believe that people can be excited or exhausted about the same topic depending on the tutor's teaching attitude. If a tutor is successful in making students interested in their courses, students can then be more likely to be hard-working and successful. I can…

Help them want to learn. There will always be kids who want to understand and desperately struggle to, but it is my opinion that the majority of people are capable of understanding and just aren't interested in it. I remember feeling that way about a lot of my school subjects - I still feel that way about some of my college units - but I have…

First of all, seeing improvement in the grades is one of the important aspect. Although it is important, I would also want the student to feel safe to ask me any questions to allow them further understanding in the contents they are working on. For me, I consider "learning fully and safely" as the most important point. This will provide them the…

Inside ToowongTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Sila worked through dividing decimals by whole numbers and tackled decimal division worded problems, using real-life scenarios to strengthen understanding.

For Year 10, Lachlan focused on sketching linear graphs from coordinates and identifying gradients of parallel and perpendicular lines.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student revised critical path analysis in networks and practised applying the Hungarian algorithm for assignment problems with step-by-step examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student, confident in their algebra knowledge, was hesitant to show working when tackling exam-style questions—she works sometimes too quickly and does not show all her working, as a tutor noted. This led to repeated sign errors, particularly with negatives.

In Year 12, another student struggled with calculator use during test conditions and didn't bring class notes or homework for review; this slowed problem-solving and left key mistakes unaddressed.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 learner frequently mixed up place value when multiplying decimals, needing columns and colour-coding to keep work legible. Each instance resulted in time spent retracing steps rather than building new understanding.

Recent Achievements

One Toowong tutor noted that a Year 8 student who previously guessed answers is now asking for clarification whenever he's unsure and reworking steps instead of moving on with mistakes.

In a recent high school session, another student started self-correcting errors during practice questions, something she'd avoided before, and even took the initiative to plan her own revision schedule ahead of an upcoming exam.

Meanwhile, a senior student tackling assignment prep demonstrated real progress by choosing his topic independently and adding relevant content without prompting—he hadn't shown this much ownership in earlier sessions.

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 Toowong Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Omni Academies of Learning.
