I think the main role of a tutor is encouraging confidence in their students. I have found that most of the time my students know the answer, they're just too afraid to say it. Or they may be on the right track and need a little guidance to fully understand a concept, making problem solving skills another thing that I try to pass on to my…

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 would say that tutors should be able to teach each student differently as everyone has different cognitive abilities. Being able to understand where their misconceptions and thorough explanations benefit students tremendously. Tutors should also like the subjects they teach in order to impart knowledge to the students. I am patient and always…

Support their learning without giving away the answers easily so that the student can actually practice while supervised. This not only and proves their understanding, but also allows them to go through all of the processes in problem solving so that they form their own framework to comprehend the subject matter. It is important to do this while…

The best thing a tutor can do for a student is to be there to support them in their wins and losses. They need to be available to answer their questions, no matter how silly. My strengths lie in my method of explaining things. Even though its a very minor thing, I've found in my own teachers that even if they are the best in the world, if they…

I think the most important things a tutor can do are: understanding the student's current level of knowledge, guiding them through a challenging level of work, which isn't too easy or too hard, just enough so they can learn. And also helping students understand different concepts through a few different perspectives and ways of teaching. I think…

In my opinion, one of the most important thing a tutor can do is adapt to each student’s unique learning style in order to ensure that lessons are productive and effective. Moreover, tutors should also pay close attention to details and take the time to understand a student’s thought process. By doing so, they can provide the right guidance,…

Inside Ferny HillsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Cohen practised division and multiplication, focusing on problems with single-digit factors and divisors.

In Year 10, Madelyn reviewed her maths assignment by interpreting teacher feedback and revising her written responses for improvement.

For Year 11, Maddy explored scalar projections and dot products in vectors, applying these properties to solve questions involving magnitude and angles.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11, leaving maths assignments until the weekend before they're due led to rushed edits and missed opportunities for deeper feedback—"he hadn't made any progress since our last session even though the task was due in 2 days."

A Year 9 student sometimes avoided showing working in Desmos equations, making it hard to spot where errors crept in.

In Year 7, forgetting materials meant an entire lesson lost to organization rather than learning.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student struggled with multiplication fluency, which slowed progress when tackling new problem types.

Each of these moments cost valuable practice or insight right when it mattered most.

Recent Achievements

One Ferny Hills tutor noted a big shift with a Year 11 student who arrived to sessions with her own set of targeted questions after previously being hesitant to speak up in class; now she takes the lead, pinpointing exactly what needs clarification.

Another high schooler made a breakthrough by not only applying teacher feedback to his assignment but also independently deciding which sections to strengthen—a step up from waiting for direction.

Meanwhile, a Year 2 student who used to skip tricky words is now sounding out each letter and going back to fix mistakes as soon as they're spotted.

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 Patricks Road State School.
