I want to cater to that student's needs. I think it is extremely important to ask what the students' goals are. You need to know the direction they want to go in order to meet their needs. Then take their goal and break it down into achievable pieces that they can accomplish. Lot of students get overwhelmed in math and my goal is to make them…

The most important thing a tutor can do is to inspire passion; a person who is sincerely interested in a subject and has a drive to continue delving into it will naturally go much further and achieve much higher then an unmotivated genius no matter the intellect as they will enjoy the entire journey of learning and not just focus on the results. I…

Truly the most important thing any tutor can do for a student is to help create and cultivate a growth mindset. By doing this, students become lifelong, innovative learners. This certainly occurs in the classroom, but teachers are expected to do this to upwards of 20+ children. Tutors are important to students because they assist in expanding…

One of the most important things a tutor can do for the student is to be flexible in their teaching methods and approaches to learning/teaching content as there are so many different learning styles out there and they are there with us because they may be having trouble with the teaching methods used at school. In those cases in particular, it's…

I believe the most important things a tutor can provide are motivation and discipline. I might not be the smartest tutor, but I’m there to accompany my students, help them trust themselves, remind them of their goals, and keep them disciplined in their studies whenever they feel lost. It’s not about how fast they progress but about the…

Inspire them. Anyone can regurgitate textbook material in a different way. But only few can truly educate and inspire their students to become the very best version of themselves. Some of the strengths that I believe are quite necessary for a tutor other than leadership are resilience, and the ability to properly analyse a students learning…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to develop their problem solving skills. Regardless of subject, the ability to assess a problem, devise a strategy, execute said strategy and re-assess it if need be is a major life skill that will help a student in their academic career and beyond. I think that I am very good at meeting the…

Tutoring is a noble occupation. My experience with the previous tutoring has taught me many things that can be really important for a student. Not every child is able to cope with his/her studies and routine. Being a student of Psychology, I prefer encouraging and motivating them to do better each day. Some students tend to trigger their fear of…

I think a tutor has a lot of power in empowering a student and making them love learning and love the subject. If a tutor can reorient a student's perspective of a certain topic and make the student learn it, it enables the student to engage more with the subject and hopefully increases their passion for learning and education in general which I…

The most important this a tutor can do for a student is to support them through their learning, whether they are improving or may be struggling. Having a support person to guide you through how to manage academics without judgement is very important to me.

Local Reviews

We are very happy with Theodora and since the school year is coming to an end, we look forward to seeing her again in 2018.
Sandra, Benowa

Inside BenowaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Alex revised clock terminology and the 24-hour clock, then practised converting between fractions, percentages, and indices using test examples.

For Year 10, Chloe focused on factorising and expanding binomials as well as solving algebraic equations step-by-step.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Ethan worked through redox reactions in Chemistry and tackled logarithms, applying theory to practice questions for deeper understanding.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 Science, one student hesitated to attempt questions independently before sessions—"doesn't want to try the question before with me as doesn't want to do it wrong"—which led to slower progress on assignments and built up anxiety around mistakes.

A Year 11 student in Maths repeatedly wrote down the wrong formula when tackling trigonometry problems; confusion persisted during revision, making it harder to correct errors efficiently.

In Year 8 English, untidy handwriting and incomplete assignment drafts meant feedback was hard to act on.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student lost focus at session starts, needing extra reminders just to organize materials and begin work.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Benowa recently noticed a Year 11 student who used to rush through algebra is now carefully showing all working and checking steps before moving on.

In a senior chemistry session, another high schooler who previously mixed up equations surprised his tutor by recalling the right formulas for titration problems without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who was hesitant to speak up started rephrasing maths concepts herself and answering questions aloud during her Benowa tutoring lesson.

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 Mobile Library Service—or at your child's school (with permission), like Benowa State High School.
