The thing I consider to be most important as a tutor is the ability to be able to help built the student's confidence so that even after tutoring, they will have the skills to apply in further studies. This is because I believe that rather than being goal-oriented, gaining the skills is far more valuable. As a tutor, one of my biggest strengths is…

Science Tutor Main Beach, QLD
A tutor can be a good role model for the student. So, I would ensure that I am always on time and help them understand mathematical concepts in a friendly way. If a student has any queries on certain concepts on the day before the exam, I would take the extra step to answer their queries via email/phone. I regularly watch tutorials in mathematics…

The most important thing a tutor can do is to be a friend who will be patient and understanding. This helps the student relax and feel more comfortable during the tuition and so be able to learn better and absorb more information, going away with more. I think that my strength is being able to explain the content such that it can be understood…

Science Tutor Varsity Lakes, QLD
I believe that a tutor must guide the student to learn independently by introducing different methods and techniques to learn. This is because an hour or two of supervised study in a week is not sufficient to learn and excel in a subject. Further, in this modern world with ever expanding technology there are many avenues to study and learn the…

One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to provide them with support for their weakest strengths. I believe that it is crucial that tutors are able to cater to the student's needs. As a tutor, I am able to work well with students. I have a natural skill of presenting content in ways that cater to the student's style of…

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…

A tutor is not a person who make students to gulp everything on the book. A tutor should know where the focus should be given. Knowing their capacity and weak areas should be the first step a tutor have to step into when a student approach for help. Once the foundation is made strong, it will be easy to build over it. Along with that, a tutor…

1. Working with the student to establish student-centred goals. 2. Being reliable and widely available for the student. Being a student can be stressful, therefore being just a phone call away if an assignment deadline is approaching to assist in overcoming hurdles that may arise can be a huge comforter to avoid unnecessary stress. Further to…

I consider the most important thing a tutor can do is to be open-minded and cater to the individual student. They should always have the student's best interest in mind and need to be patient and understanding as everyone is different and some concepts may be more difficult for some people and easy for others. I am a charismatic person with an…

Shubh tutored my son Travis in Term 4 for maths. Travis is in Year 7. We saw a remarkable improvement in Travis' overall attitude to school, not just in maths and we beleive Shubh played a big part in this. Thank you Shubh

Inside CarraraTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Fractions worked on recognising and comparing fractions, as well as finding a fraction of a whole number using practical examples.

In Year 11, Hamiltonian path and cycle problems were tackled along with Euler paths and circuits, focusing on understanding how to identify these in various types of networks.

Year 12 student covered Time Series Analysis, including mean-smoothing techniques and interpreting trends in real data sets for Unit 4 assessment preparation.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student preparing for Economics struggled to finish assignment calculations and analysis, leaving sections incomplete. As one tutor observed, "she needs to go through the sources, complete analysis and the rest of the essay," which left her argument unsupported in drafts.

In Year 9 Mathematics, a student's messy handwriting and skipped mathematical signs ("+" or "–") made it hard to follow working out—mistakes weren't easily caught on review sheets.

Meanwhile, a senior student tackling trigonometry hesitated to attempt harder questions without notes, slowing recall during timed practice. The unfinished work meant gaps lingered when new material was introduced.

Recent Achievements

A Carrara tutoring session saw one Year 11 student make a big leap in maths, moving from a 3/14 to an 11/14 on her latest exam after consistently recalling and applying tricky theory that used to trip her up.

In another high school example, a tutor noted how Sherisse now voices her questions openly during lessons instead of staying silent when confused—she's also begun organising her notes and homework much more methodically.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who previously hesitated with two-digit multiplication can now solve these problems quickly and accurately, even tackling long division independently by the end of the lesson.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Stella is fantastic and Alex's maths grades went from D to B with Stella so we are very grateful. I am keen for her to continue because she was doing very well with Stella.

Dorcas was brilliant. Proactive, organised with a genuine interest in Yasmin's learning. Dorcas went over and above what was required of her and for that I am very grateful. Your company has always been professional and understanding also, no complaints there whatsoever. Thank you for following up with us and perhaps another time in the future we may need your services, I wouldn't go anywhere else to find a tutor.

Thanks for your e-mail follow up! All is going well thank you with Serenity-Mae's tutorials. It has been a positive experience for her which is great!

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 Helensvale Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Emmanuel College.
