Biology Tutor Drayton, QLD
A tutor can help a student develop the necessary skills,by which he can learn and understand by himself. Also, he can help identify the students weaknesses and provide alternatives by which the student can easily learn. I have patience and understanding. I also have excellent writing skills. Moreover, I like challenges and I love it when I can…

Biology Tutor East Toowoomba, QLD
I believe a biology tutor should take teaching very passionately when doing her/his job as these early days in students life will play important role in their later life. At the same time, I think a tutor should be emotionally intelligent enough to build a good relationship with student so that student enjoys learning. I try explain the science…

Local Reviews

Life-changing for my son, even from the first lesson we could tell the tutor hit the nail on the head. So many problems to deal with besides the actual maths, like note taking, paying attention in class, managing your own time... these are the kind of things my son would refuse to learn from me, but coming from his tutor it's received so well and has been truly an incredible improvement for all of our lives! Seriously recommend.

Inside HarristownTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Kagan focused on area calculations of compound shapes and solving problems involving triangles and trapezoids using worksheets.

In Year 11, Tom worked through questions on financial maths—specifically annuities and compound interest—and practised applying network theory concepts to real-world scenarios.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Bonnie tackled balancing redox reactions in Chemistry by identifying oxidised and reduced species, as well as practising logarithmic functions in Mathematics for her exam preparation.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Chemistry, technical issues with Zoom sound and a 40-minute dropout interrupted focus, leaving some clarification on E₀ values and log manipulations unresolved—"solutions for induction examples given post-lesson," but feedback wasn't immediately acted on.

A senior student tackling their first major assignment needed help structuring it and understanding the ISMG marking guide; without clear organization, progress slowed.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student did not complete assigned homework and struggled to stay focused during multiplication practice, often zoning out mid-problem. In one session, "he had not done any of the homework assigned either"—making in-lesson time less productive as new material had to be delayed.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Harristown noticed that one Year 12 student, who previously hesitated to adapt his answers when faced with tricky data in Chemistry, is now confidently modifying his approach based on the evidence presented—a big shift from just sticking to "expected" answers.

Another high schooler has started working through complex integration questions methodically and now recognises the intent behind feedback, actively incorporating suggestions into final responses instead of overlooking them.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who struggled to stay focused at first is now completing her homework before sessions and rapidly recalling multiplication tables without prompting.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

She is one of the finest tutors I have seen. Her consistency and persistent attitude towards the children growth makes her exceptional. Because of her, my niece developed confidence in all phases of education.

Stephanie our tutor for Loki has been great. Loki is enjoying the sessions and in the short time we have seen him becoming more confident. Truly appreciate your assistance in getting Loki up to speed. Rest assured if I hear of anyone looking for a tutor I will send them your way!

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.

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 Highfields Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Concordia Lutheran College - Concordia Primary Campus.
