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…

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…

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…

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…

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…

The most important things that a tutor can do for a student is understand how a student learns things whether it is through wrote learning and memorisation, visual or physical learning and from that be able to teach the student content through a learning type that is best for a student. - Confident - Presentable - Patient & chill - which is a…

Inside Tweed Heads SouthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Willow focused on operations with fractions, including simplifying, adding and subtracting, as well as converting between mixed numbers and improper fractions.

Year 10 student Jeremy tackled Pythagoras' theorem and trigonometry problems using practice worksheets to prepare for his semester exam, also revisiting measurement of shapes and linear graphs.

For Year 11, Mia concentrated on algebra fundamentals like solving one-variable equations and basic manipulation of expressions to support her transition into general maths.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student arrived unprepared for deeper exam-style questions, sharing that "I tried to prepare for the basics in all the curriculum but wasn't ready for the in-depth exam questions."

In Year 9 algebra, one learner avoided showing full working, making it harder to catch sign errors and improve.

A Year 7 student missed out on area practice because paper was forgotten, stalling progress until next time.

In Year 6 English, a student's written responses lacked clear paragraph structure—even after seeing examples—making quiz answers hard to follow.

For a Year 10 science topic, missing key notes led to confusion during reaction balancing.

Recent Achievements

During a Tweed Heads South tutoring session, **Jeremy independently solved complex equations** and checked his own work for errors—something he rarely attempted at first after often second-guessing himself with trigonometry and algebra.

Willow, another high schooler, used to hesitate with fractions but now **works through grade-level problems** with only an occasional prompt and has begun converting between forms without needing reminders.

Meanwhile, in Year 6, Bella initially rushed her writing tasks but now **self-corrects grammar before handing in** her English homework by taking time to re-read her answers.

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 Tweed River High School.
