The most important thing a tutor can do is make sure the student clearly understands the theory and understands the applications. This is because, students will be tested on their knowledge with complex unfamiliar questions where a more nuanced approach would be required. My experience in the QCAA syllabus and helping my classmates learn the…

I believe giving the student confidence is so important as no matter how well you teach them if they believe they can't do it they won't succeed. I always try to start my students off with more basic questions to give them that bit of confidence before working with them to solve the more complex questions. I'm known for being a happy and…

The best thing which a tutor can do is to help students solve the difficulties which they are facing in their studies in such a way that rather than directly giving solutions to them, tutor can help in understanding the problem and concepts behind it. I am very patient and I focus on core subjects so students can solve any kind of problem and I…

Relate. The student will understand the concept once it resonates with something the student is interested in. A tutor needs to describe the concept, demonstrate the concept and invite the student to attempt the concept. This open dialogue, dispelling fear of failure and welcoming the opportunity to learn is an important attribute a tutor must…

On top of efficiently solving problems, a tutor should be able to explain to the students why it is that they are doing what they are doing. A tutor should explain why are they studying a particular topic in mathematics and what is its application. Finally, a tutor should be able to make the student enjoy what they are doing and make students look…

The most important thing I can do for a student is give them the ability to be confident in their own knowledge to attack any problem head on.

Having been part of the first year of ATAR and achieving a…

Be interactive by continuously observing where they are at. Show don't tell. Keep challenging them by pushing the boundaries of their knowledge, but be mindful of their confidence level.

I think the most important thing is to listen to the student and allow them to feel confident in asking for help. It's important to make sure that the student doesn't feel dumb or like they're being looked down upon when asking a question. It's also important to be honest, if you don't know the answer it's better to tell the student this and…

Having a strong internal drive to learn and micro-teaching skills I think is the key role in tutoring. In my opinion, tutoring is not only teaching but also a part of learning experience that enables us to recall and applying the knowledge we have because it is a proof that we have understood what we have already learned. Micro-skill is the second…

The first and most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is to help them improve in academics.

Other than academics, it is also important that students build up other skills, like, time management, managing…

It is important for tutor to teach them how to learn, rather than disseminating the information. Tutor should be in a position to come up with various pedagogies to suit the students learning style.

Inside Chermside WestTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Grace focused on simplifying algebraic fractions and practiced factorising and simplifying expressions using worked examples.

Year 9 student Liam completed a statistics assignment by constructing and interpreting stem-and-leaf plots, then compared data sets using box plots to analyse spread and median.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Olivia tackled the start of her statistics unit by distinguishing between categorical and numerical data (including ordinal vs nominal, continuous vs discrete), working through classification questions with real-world examples.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8, a student left key math materials at school due to the swimming carnival and couldn't review speed formula strategies as planned—this delay meant less practice ahead of an upcoming exam.

A Year 10 learner, after receiving quiz results, "didn't fully look through quiz results—will do that next time," missing a chance to address specific errors before moving on.

For a senior student working on biology, mixing up which body system barriers belonged in each line of defence led to repeated confusion across multiple systems; the overlapping topics seemed overwhelming without regular review.

In Year 11 maths, one student forgot to transfer formulas between their grid and lined books: "Could help with remembering what formulas you may need for the exam."

These moments show how organization lapses or not responding promptly to feedback can quietly limit progress or create last-minute stress when exams approach.

Recent Achievements

A Chermside West tutoring session saw a Year 10 student, Skyla, independently prepare questions ahead of time and now actively ask for help—something she previously hesitated to do.

In Year 8 maths, Claudia started recognising mistakes in converting units between lessons and now corrects them on her own during problem-solving.

Meanwhile, a primary school student, Lila, who used to get stuck placing negative numbers on a number line, can now confidently order both positive and negative values without prompting and completed her latest number line activity with no errors.

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 Chermside Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Craigslea State High School.
