English Tutor Mudgeeraba, QLD
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…

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…

Go at there speed of learning, and not rushing the process. If the student takes time to understand a concept, do not rush them and make it seem like they are slow at understanding, but ensure they understand, which is key. I do not get upset if the student does not understand, I just find a better way of explaining the method. Perhaps, giving an…

We are really happy with Nick. He communicates exceptionally well with our son Kye, and teaches to a point where Kye fully understands what's being said.

Inside BonoginTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Lily worked on converting between fractions and decimals, and explored number patterns using visual examples.

For Year 9, Max practiced applying index laws in algebraic contexts and reinforced understanding of SI units through targeted questions.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Ethan focused on solving quadratic equations by factorising and completing the square, as well as sketching graphs to connect solutions visually.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 English, one student struggled to support arguments with valid evidence when analysing advertisements; as a tutor noted, "she needs to ensure all claims are justified."

Meanwhile, in Year 10 Maths, not bringing notes from class meant reliance on different procedures—this led to confusion and missed connections with school methods.

A Year 11 student's energy dipped after medical issues, affecting focus and motivation for writing reference sheets; "Gwilyn is losing enthusiasm for this approach as he is quite quick at the easier types of problems."

In these moments, gaps widened between what was known and what could be confidently recalled under pressure.

Recent Achievements

In a Bonogin tutoring session, **Lily moved from being unsure** about matrix operations to independently completing problems like 2A – B and forming matrices from practical examples.

In Year 12 Physics, Ethan was initially daunted by external exam-style force questions but, after targeted practice, **he confidently solved them** using correct steps and strategies.

Meanwhile, in Year 5 maths, Eve used to mistakenly apply rectangle area formulas to triangles; now she **accurately selects the right formula** for each shape and can tackle compound area questions without confusion.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

So far so good. The kids are actually enjoying their time with Agnes so that's s good sign. Jaren came out of last weeks tutorial session saying "well you learn something new everyday". It just gives them more confidence with mathematical concepts, I think they're getting something out of it. Thank you.

Sofia was progressing and Sofia was very comfortable with the tutor. She gave Sofia a lot of help and her understanding of maths had improved and she learned to enjoyed maths, even the homework set and that surprised me. Thank you again.

Chelsea loves Melanie as her tutor. She is a great tutor, smart, very friendly, and very patient. She has all the quality as a tutor and we did like the way she taught Chelsea. Thank you so much for giving Chelsea the best tutor, we are happy with everything.

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 Mudgeeraba Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Ingleside State School.
