I believe that the most important thing to do is to communicate with my student and get an idea of what they know and don't know. It is important to build upon existing knowledge to explain other concepts and to avoid confusing my student. I think my strength is being patient with my student. I also believe I can encourage improvement and work on…

It is always for me to put their thoughts first and give them the importance. It is simply how a student learn and grow. A little bit of channeling of concepts, guidance and being there as a support is what makes it work. It is all about concepts how well you know them and how easy you can make them for students to understand. I always try to…

Tutors are there to motivate a student to achieve greater outcomes in life, principally in the area of academic study. Whether this is confidence, the knowledge that someone believes in them, strategies for studying and/or comprehension, through to developing initiative, self correction skills and the ability to constantly improve, tutoring is a…

To teach a topic is to simplify it, make the students imagine and live in the topic by giving them real life examples and case studies. As a tutor I beleive in understanding student's perspective, I try to put myself in their shoes and consider all the possibilities. While preparing a topic I prepare as if the students know everything (which helps…

As far as my understanding, as a tutor, he/she always needs to motivate their students to think more widely and creatively. It is true, initially, they will fail several times. Allowing them to do it, will build their confidence for their future, which will be eventually worth it for their life. As a tutor, I am always friendly, patiently try to…

I believe the most important thing as a tutor is to be positive and encourage students at all times.

Being open minded and starting somewhere is such an effective way to move forward and…

So far I have found several factors that make for good tutors. Firstly building a strong and personal relationship with the student is very important as the more connected a student feels to his or her tutor, the more the tutor can add essential ingredients for students to learn and grow. Secondly, communication and collaboration with the student,…

I believe that it is incredibly important for a tutor to inspire their student to achieve their very best in terms of their academics. I also believe that a tutor can act as a more relatable source of academic help instead of a teacher; a tutor can provide more in depth help outside the class room. I can sympathise with the students in terms of…

From my point of view, inspiring student motivation for learning and helping the student become an independent learner are the most important things a tutor can do for a student.

Inside GreenslopesTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Caleb explored chance and probability scenarios, along with basic arithmetic calculations.

Year 8 student Paul tackled algebraic expressions, measurement problems, geometry concepts, and probability through school test revision.

For Year 10, Ruby focused on quadratic equations—finding turning points and axes of symmetry by completing the square—and practiced using intercepts to determine the equation of a quadratic from its graph.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often left algebra steps incomplete—skipped showing working when simplifying expressions, as noted—making it difficult to spot and correct sign errors.

In senior maths, one Year 11 student's graph work was held back by unclear layout: axis scales were inconsistently marked, leading to confusion about gradients.

A Year 10 student preparing an essay hesitated to write full sentences for ideas, worried they "weren't perfect yet," which slowed progress and limited drafting practice.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 learner sometimes relied on counting by hand instead of memorizing basic addition facts, making multi-step calculations much slower during class activities.

Recent Achievements

A Greenslopes tutor recently noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who started independently detecting and correcting her own mistakes in algebra, after previously needing step-by-step guidance.

In a senior English session, another high schooler was able to restructure her essay based on feedback—something she'd hesitated to do before—which made her arguments much clearer and stronger.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who had struggled to stay focused managed to complete all his decimal addition questions correctly and worked with much more concentration than usual. The session wrapped up as he answered every problem without prompting.

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 Stones Corner Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Greenslopes State School.
