Science Tutor Centenary Heights, QLD
Allow students to build on previous knowledge and expand their knowledge in a fun way. I believe a tutor can scaffold learning for the student so that they can gain confidence from incremental learning tasks. Patience and I am able to adapt to any student's learning style. Also I am able to prepare learning experiences to match the learning style…

A tutor can help a student develop the necessary skills,by which he can learn and understand by himself. Also, he can help identify the students weaknesses and provide alternatives by which the student can easily learn. I have patience and understanding. I also have excellent writing skills. Moreover, I like challenges and I love it when I can…

Science Tutor East Toowoomba, QLD
I believe a tutor should take teaching very passionately when doing her/his job as these early days in students life will play important role in their later life. At the same time, I think a tutor should be emotionally intelligent enough to build a good relationship with student so that student enjoys learning. I try explain the science concepts…

Science 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

Lauren seems to be going well and most importantly is engaging with Steph and feeling better about Maths in general. We are very happy with Steph so far. She is a lovely girl who is always punctual and the communication between us is excellent. And I think Lauren looks forward to her sessions with Steph, which can only be a positive!

She has been SUPER professional. I would recommend her without hesitation. She is responsible, has made a connection with my son, has communicated with me and kept me informed all the time. She is a great asset. We look forward to working with her in the future.
