I believe I am a very calm and welcoming person which would allow for students to feel relaxed around me. I also am capable of explaining a concept in a variety of ways…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to remember their position when they were at their student's age, the difficulties they faced while learning and sharing their experiences with passion to their students so they do not have to face such difficulties while learning.

Terena
Tutor Tivoli, QLD
I believe that tutoring for a student should be a safe zone space where they can make mistakes. Tutoring does not have the same pressue for a student that school can, as such it is important for a tutor to be patient and adaptive when a student is struggling with a concept. A tutor should welcome mistakes as an opportunity to grow. I also believe…

We have all experienced what it is like to be a student and sometimes they go through some difficult situations and I believe that…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to adapt to their learning style and to be supportive.

James
Tutor Augustine Heights, QLD
The single most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be patient. Everyone learns things at different rates and some things may come more easily than others. If the tutor becomes frustrated it only ends up discouraging and demoralising the student which further affects their study and confidence. Hence, it is vital for a tutor to be…

The most important things are having patience and consistently making sure students are keeping up with what I'm saying.

Inside BlackstoneTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 4 student Aiden practised multiplication tables and word problems, focusing on strategies for long division and regrouping in subtraction.
In Year 8, Olivia worked through trigonometry word problems using calculators to find sine, cosine, and tangent values, as well as applying the Pythagorean theorem to right-angled triangles.
Meanwhile, Year 9 student Liam revised probability concepts by drawing Venn diagrams and solving two-way table exercises, also comparing data sets with range and interquartile range calculations.
Recent Challenges
In Year 11, a student struggled to plan time during statistics revision—"we were not able to do statistics revision due to lack of time"—which left some probability work incomplete and at risk of being forgotten.
Meanwhile, in Year 8 trigonometry, feedback from earlier mistakes was not always applied, leading to repeated errors in practice questions.
A Year 4 student showed hesitation writing out long division steps; perfectionism made her reluctant to show working unless she was sure it was correct.
In English (Year 6), attention drifted during tests, so less material was covered than intended.
Recent Achievements
One Blackstone tutor noticed a big shift with Connor, a high school student who previously hesitated to attempt challenging trigonometry word problems but now solves them independently and accurately—even finishing all his practice questions except one.
Another high school win: Max, after initially struggling to get started on angle problems in polygons, was able to work through them on his own following some targeted guidance.
In primary years, Isla showed new initiative by explaining what she wanted to focus on and then applying her own strategies from past lessons when tackling tough word problems—something she used to avoid.
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 Ipswich Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Sacred Heart School.
