Chemistry Tutor Eatons Hill, QLD
Tutoring one-on-one as opposed to teaching to a group allows a much more tailored approach to an indivudal student. Not everyone learns in the same way, so finding the perfect way for an individual student to understand a topic is the most important thing a tutor can do for a student. I'm told by my ex-students that I am very patient and willing…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to listen to their needs for their subject and pinpoint the exact cause for their frustration/ troubles. By first realizing the area of improvement time is used more efficiently for studying. Next the tutor should be able to connect and communicate with the student to understand their…

A tutor must be patient and listen to how the student feels and explains their material. Without this we can't understand where the gaps are in the students knowledge OR whether they really do understand, but just in a different way. I have infinite patience, I can adjust my communication style, and I when faced with something unfamiliar I have…

I think a common misconception about a tutor's job is that their whole purpose is to get their tutee an A+. While this is obviously a wonderful side-effect of tutoring, the most important thing a tutor can do is to develop and improve a student's ability to problem-solve, learn, and work effectively to complete their academic goals. The difference…

In the teaching phase, student-focused teaching would be my method of teaching, which is to discover what the students need instead of dumping knowledge, whilst showing respect and understanding. When a student raises concerns about a question, which I assume in maths and sciences usually composites of concepts from multiple areas of study, I…

Acoording to me the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is make a positive impact on his life by not forcing the society standards for learning and growing as every child has a different mind and way of approach to things around them. A tutor is one of the best person who can analyse this and make learning a creative activity instead…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is inspiring them to keep learning, by giving them "aha" moments when they understand something new.

Being a figure that the students can trust and rely on is extremely important.

The most important thing is for the tutor to facilitate the learning experience for the student, rather than telling the student what to do.

For starters, a student needs to be comfortable around their tutor, so if they feel that they are not understanding something or for some reason feel odd they dare to let us know. Another thing is the tutor's capability to adapt to their students learning needs and styles. I believe that one of my greatest strengths as a tutor has to be my ability…

Inside Ferny GroveTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Lily focused on division and multiplication using single-digit numbers, practicing with a mix of word problems and number sentences.

In Year 10, Jack worked through trigonometric identities to solve equations and also completed exercises involving basic matrix operations.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Emily explored vectors by calculating scalar projections and dot products, applying these to questions about magnitude and angles.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student often arrived without books or materials, so the session started with searching for resources instead of learning.

In Year 12 Specialist Maths, notes lacked detail and context—one tutor observed, "despite having significantly more notes than before, these notes lacked context and detail," making revision confusing before tests.

A younger student (Year 3) repeatedly counted on fingers for basic addition and became frustrated during division tasks; this slowed progress and reduced confidence mid-lesson.

For one senior assignment, no new work had been completed a week out from deadline, leaving little time to seek feedback or refine responses.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Ferny Grove recently noticed some genuine shifts: a Year 11 student who previously avoided speaking up began actively asking questions and even brought a notebook filled with detailed notes—something he'd never done before.

In a Year 7 session, the student arrived prepared with specific class questions and tackled her assignment independently, where she used to wait for step-by-step guidance.

Meanwhile, one primary student who had always counted on fingers is now solving base-10 addition problems mentally without prompting. Last week, that same student finished all ten problems without needing to stop for help.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I am very happy with my son's tutor so far. We have only had 2 sessions & already my son is doing his homework after school everyday, without being asked. He also is impressing his tutor with his knowledge. They both relate with each other & I can see good things for my son's future.

I think Molly is really getting a lot out of the sessions and a lot of support. I think that she is also a good role model for Molly.

Michelle is awesome and has taught me so much in a short amount of time. She never doubts my level of ability and is always encouraging me to go above and beyond. Her knowledge of specific maths topics is just out of this world. You guys have one awesome lady on your hands!

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 Arana Hills Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Ferny Grove State School.
