Info Processing Tutor Drayton, QLD
The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to teach and help them to learn. The tutor should help the student develop their own skills by setting a good example. I have lots of patience when it comes to teaching. I never stop until the students got what the topic is all…

Nick has been excellent for our son and has taken him from grade E in maths to now achieving B's. Our son has become much more confident in his maths and is now able to tackle difficult questions without hesitation.

Inside Centenary HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Alex revised algebra basics by practising opening brackets and solving word problems, and also strengthened skills with integer operations.

For Year 10, Mia worked on quadratic functions using completing the square as well as tackling area calculations for compound shapes like triangles and circles.

Meanwhile, a senior student in Year 12 focused on financial maths—covering annuities and compound interest—and reviewed chemistry concepts such as balancing redox reactions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student arrived without completing any homework, which meant time was lost reviewing unfinished material instead of progressing.

In Year 11, as a tutor noted, "he had not done any of the homework assigned either," leading to gaps when tackling new Statistics concepts.

Another senior student struggled with organizing schoolwork—notes were scattered and tasks forgotten.

For a Year 5 learner, written work in multiplication remained messy; steps were skipped or jumbled when tired.

In one case, a Year 10 student avoided writing full working for algebra problems—errors stayed hidden until marked, delaying feedback and progress.

Recent Achievements

One Centenary Heights tutor noticed a Year 9 student who used to get distracted and make careless mistakes now pausing to check his work—he finished today's problems with far fewer errors than usual.

In a recent high school session, a Year 11 student who had previously hesitated to ask for help began actively raising doubts during algebra, working through questions out loud instead of staying silent.

Meanwhile, a primary student showed real initiative by completing all her assigned times tables before the lesson and tackled new ones with noticeably more speed than in previous weeks.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Hi, Ruhail has been great and his flexibility has helped enormously. He spent 3.5 hours with Casey last weekend as she had a test she was very concerned about. Casey did much better in her test than she would have done and we are already over the moon. Please pass on our thanks.

Yes, we are very pleased that Sophia likes Rebecca and the tutoring seems to be going well. Rebecca obviously has patience and takes the time to explain things so Sophia can follow them and work through the maths, which is exactly what we wanted. The problem with the school is they move along so fast that there is not enough practice time, and we (the parents) are not familiar with what they teach so we can't just help out quickly; we have to re-learn it ourselves first, and then we're probably not good at explaining clearly. That's why it is great having Rebecca who can obviously explain things in a way Sophia understands. The main thing is that Sophia sees herself as 'Ëśno good at maths', but when something is explained so she understands it, she is very pleased when she can get the right answers. A lot of it is a confidence thing I think, and also her school maths teacher has been quite negative about her work; so hopefully the tutoring will rebuild some of Sophia's general confidence over time, which would be great. Sophia will never be a star at maths, but if she can just get passes instead of always negative marks and comments from school, we will be quite happy with that. Sophia is very good at English/Hums and art; maths is her weak area, and we are very pleased (and actually surprised) that she is sitting through an hour of maths tutoring each week without complaint. We did not know how it would go; we tried one other tutor a few months ago , a retired male maths teacher - and she hated it. So this time we are very happy.

So far so good with Tim. Tim is now tutoring both my kids and both are really happy with him. Results will show in the months to come. It is early days but we are very happy so far.

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 Highfields Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Centenary Heights State High School.
