The most relevant things when it comes to tutoring are being able to connect with the student in a way that they feel motivated and find the help they need in order to learn. I believe students should have access to meaningful learning. I get along very well with children and teenagers and always find the way to motivate and encourage them to…

After studying for a long time, I concluded that when students engage with the topics, they tend to learn more easily. Therefore, the tutor must present the content in a creative and innovative way, seeking always feedback with the students on how much they are absorbing and only proceed when all the necessary foundations of the topic are clearly…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to make them feel comfortable with the learning material and go up and beyond until they finally understand what they are learning. This requires patience, encouragement, and maybe a lot of explaining, but that is part of the job. I also think it is important to keep the student…

Other than helping a student genuinely understand the content in their course, I think that the most important thing a tutor can do for them is to help them in developing and implementing strategies to allow them to become independently successful. This may mean developing a better organisational process, implementing a system for completing tasks…

Effective communication is essential. This includes being able to explain concepts clearly and in a way that is easy to understand and being a good listener. Additionally, the ability to empathize with students and understand their challenges and frustrations can make a big difference in how they respond to tutoring. Tutoring often involves…

Tutor Banora Point, NSW
Not just tutor them, but be a friend. By opening up and developing a closer bond to students, the students feel more comfortable and it doesn't become a tutoring session, but just a study session. I went through the course(s) myself quite recently, so I understand what's expected on the students, and what they need to do to excel and not only get…

First thing should be rapport building because it is very important to gain the trust and confidence of the student. Second would be establishing a set of routine so that the time in each session is used up efficiently. Lastly, tutors should effectively motivate students in achieving their goals as well as inspire them to improve each day. My…

Understanding self, and the acquisition of skill and knowledge are the most important things to give a student. Yes, the report card is an important ticket for students, and especially those in tutoring. But, all that knowledge will perish without use.

Teach not the style I want to teach or the style I learnt but in the style that the student best learns. The content would most easily be absorbed when it is presented in the way the student best learns I am Friendly, extroverted, assertive, committed, open minded to learning new things and trying new techniques. I am not dismissive of questions…

Electra is a Miracle Tutor! I have a very difficult, stubborn 16year old boy. Electra, somehow , got inside his head and now my 16year old is trying to improve. He is finally making an effort in a subject that he couldn't care less about, but is a core subject! I'm so very impressed by Electras Skill!

Inside Tweed HeadsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Bella worked through maths questions on time and perimeter, alongside English worksheets focusing on sentence structure and homonyms.

In Year 9, Willow concentrated on fraction operations—simplifying, adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions—as well as converting between improper fractions and mixed numbers.

Jeremy, a Year 10 student, reviewed trigonometry topics like finding unknown sides or angles in right-angled triangles using diagrams, plus practised algebraic techniques including expanding brackets and factorisation in preparation for his semester exam.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student arrived underprepared for exam revision, focusing on general basics rather than targeted practice, which left her unable to tackle more complex questions during the session.

In Year 10 algebra, a tendency to avoid writing out full working made it difficult to spot sign errors—he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student sometimes glanced over instructions and got confused by her own calculations when tackling worded maths problems.

A primary student forgot necessary materials for an area task, missing out on written practice that day and losing momentum mid-lesson.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Tweed Heads noticed Jeremy, a high school student, has started catching his own mistakes in algebra and now explains the steps out loud before moving on—something he used to rush through without checking.

Willow, also in high school, recently worked through a challenging fractions worksheet from the grade 7 syllabus; she managed most questions on her own and only needed reminders for tricky parts, a big step up from earlier sessions where she'd hesitate to start.

Meanwhile, Bella (Year 6) now asks for extra homework and proofreads her writing after previously submitting work with frequent errors.

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 Tweed Heads Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Joseph's Primary School.
