To prepare for class and constantly check up on their progress. Students often need help outside of class, which lots of tutors do not provide. I am always accessible outside of class hours, ensuring students get help whenever they need it. Another important thing is to motivate the student. I always felt inspired to study after my sessions with…

The single most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be patient. Everyone learns things at different rates and some things may come more easily than others. If the tutor becomes frustrated it only ends up discouraging and demoralising the student which further affects their study and confidence. Hence, it is vital for a tutor to be…

I would have to say the tutor would need to be driven. If the tutor doesn’t have that drive how will their student show any motivation or show the knowledge they’ve gained I think I’m quite patient. Patience is always ideal when tutoring as something cannot always be fully understood. Additionally I have been told I’m very understanding…

Lessons are fantastic, it’s easy to understand.

Inside DoolandellaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Alexis worked through advanced exponentials and logarithms for an assignment, checking calculations and refining responses to meet assessment criteria.

In Year 10, Ben revised mean, median, mode, range, IQR and box plots using sample data sets in preparation for his upcoming exam.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Sam focused on external exam prep by practicing short response questions involving derivatives and integrals (including trig and natural logs), as well as tackling growth/decay problem-solving with laws of logarithms.

Recent Challenges

In Year 12 Specialist Maths, one student repeatedly skipped lines in algebraic working, which led to mistakes that "hid sign errors and caused incorrect answers."

Another senior student delayed seeking help when overwhelmed by extended chemistry questions, resulting in rushed editing and tangential writing instead of meeting criteria.

In Year 8 maths, a student struggled to lay out work neatly and often felt lost when facing terminology-heavy problems—guidance on task order was needed for progress.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner's tendency to rush through money word problems without checking the actual question led her to answer with total cost rather than change given.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Doolandella noticed that one Year 11 student, Gianna, has shifted from needing step-by-step support to now leading chemistry lessons by asking targeted questions and connecting ideas from previous assignments. She's even unpacking multi-mark questions independently and checking her own work for key requirements.

Meanwhile, Rohan (Year 10) is now consistently showing his full maths working with correct algebraic formatting—something he struggled with before. He has begun using precise terminology without prompting.

In primary, Mikaela recently counted out change and solved real-world money problems on her own after previously relying on reminders for each step.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

My tutoring is going great, Rory is awesome and I'm very happy with the way things are going. Feeling so much better about my maths already.

We are very happy with the tutoring and our tutor is very good with my children. They are really enjoying it and this speaks volumes as they were both very opposed to the idea!

Sahm has been an excellent teacher and we are very happy as to the way he works with our daughter.

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 Inala Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Serviceton South State School.
