Communicate the fundamentals of the problem at hand and provide insight into what is being solved. In maths especially understanding the question and helping the student to find that understanding is always the first move to make with a student. If they don't understand what's being asked then they won't be able to find the right answer and…

A common misconception within tutoring is the difference between teaching and doing for. The most important thing a chemistry tutor can do is broaden and enhance the knowledge of the students in a way they understand. Within reason, an improvement in ability is far more important than an improvement in grades. I excel at building a bond between my…

One-on-one tutors get to provide a learning experience different to the one offered in the classroom because it is a more individual form of teaching where the tutor can sync in with the pace of the student and address the student's own problems. It is important for tutors to be able to identify these weak areas or gaps in their students knowledge…

I think the most important things a chemistry tutor can do for a student go beyond just explaining the content. First, a tutor should make the student feel comfortable asking questions — even the ones they think are “silly.†When a student feels safe to speak up, real learning starts. Second, it’s important to focus on…

I feel it is a priority of the tutor to pass on their passion for learning and knowledge to their students. Once this has been accomplished, however long it takes, teaching content and having the student learn it quickly and confidently is simple. Equally important is for the student to feel safe and respected around the tutor. If they do not…

To motivate the student so that their learning occurs beyond the time constrained limits of the tutoring session.

Extensive and thorough knowledge of…

Local Reviews

My daughter had lost all confidence that she could do math and was no longer trying in school. The tutor that comes to see her is encouraging and non-threatening and has managed to change her attitude. It is great to see her improvement. Her tutor is reliable and punctual, and I like that I get a written report of what they have covered each session.

Inside Wellington PointTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Ethan focused on reading comprehension and spelling, while also practising idea development for short writing tasks.

Year 8 student Lily worked through ratios and percentages in maths and explored poetry analysis by discussing language choices in set texts.

For Year 9, Ben tackled factorising algebraic expressions and solved linear equations using step-by-step worked examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student working on algebra skipped showing steps in expansion and factorising, which meant errors went unnoticed until much later, causing frustration.

For a Year 8 English session, independent idea generation lagged; when asked to flesh out essay responses, she waited for prompts rather than brainstorming herself.

In Year 5 reading tasks, lapses in patience led to rushed passages—comprehension stalled whenever tiredness set in.

Meanwhile, a senior preparing for exams struggled with self-management: assignments were left unplanned, so quality ideas didn't translate into well-structured responses under time pressure. These moments left progress feeling patchy and uneven across subjects.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Wellington Point noted that a Year 10 student, who used to struggle with bracket expansion and exam technique, has started applying these strategies independently during practice tests.

In Year 8 maths, one student now chooses problem-solving methods for ratios without prompting—a big shift from relying on step-by-step guidance earlier in the term.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who previously hesitated when sounding out longer words is now tackling tricky vocabulary aloud and sequencing her story ideas with far more confidence than before. Last session, she read through a new chapter without needing support.

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 Wynnum Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Wellington Point State School.
