Modern History Tutor Heathwood, QLD
While results may be important, I believe the most important part is instilling knowledge in a way that builds a students confidence so that they can become self-reliant and effective learners. As a tutor, i believe my strengths are my patience and my ability to effectively communicate with students to beat support each one individually. This has…

Help them feel better about themselves and hopefully convince them that a bad grade does not define them.

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to adapt to their learning style and to be supportive. Not every student can be taught using the same plan, and it is necessary to change when needed so that a student can be successful. If a student needs a range of scenarios so that they can clearly understand the topic, it should be…

A tutor's responsibility I believe is to not only help out the students with their homework, assignments and exams preparation but also be a mentor for them helping them overcome the difficulties faced by them in school, help them to not only make use of their strengths but also accept their weaknesses and make a positive outcome of it. A tutor…

It is highly important for a tutor to listen and more specifically identify gaps and concerns that a student is having in a particular area.

One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to provide understanding and gentle encouragement. It has been my experience that, if a student feels like the work is overwhelming and the teacher isn't listening, then the student will simply cease to care or give up. Listening to a student and helping them to work through what…

The most important thing a tutor can give to his/her student is confidence. The confidence to know that whatever the problem is. There is no point trying to avoid it when if you work hard enough and practice enough with the right help, you will be able to solve problems on your own. Eventually the student does not need the tutor as a crutch if the…

Hamish is great and Jackson feels confident after receiving his help.
Natalie, Heathwood

Inside HeathwoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Aryan worked on single- and double-digit addition and subtraction, as well as punctuation basics like full stops and question marks.

For Year 10, Zoe focused on algebraic methods for solving equations and practised factorising perfect squares and the difference of two squares using step-by-step examples.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Lucas tackled exponential and logarithmic functions, then extended to taking derivatives of these along with trigonometric functions in preparation for upcoming topics.

Recent Challenges

In Year 12 Physics, a student struggled with formatting and pacing their scientific report—"needs more evidence"—which led to rushed conclusions and weaker claims.

A Year 11 Maths student showed over-reliance on calculators, often rounding answers prematurely instead of using exact forms when creating functions.

During Year 8 homework on graphing questions, one learner left work incomplete; as the tutor observed, "was unable to complete homework regarding graphing questions."

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student hesitated to attempt challenging addition problems independently and required prompting to check her answers aloud. This sometimes meant correct methods weren't practiced until guided step-by-step.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Heathwood noticed a Year 11 student who used to rely heavily on step-by-step guidance now tackling optimization questions solo—she picks out relevant information from complex problems and confidently applies the right techniques.

In a recent session with a Year 9 student, there was a shift: instead of guessing through index law questions, he paused to backtrack and find mistakes when prompted, showing real engagement with the process.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student surprised her tutor by adapting easily to the number-line strategy for addition and even tried harder problems independently before reading the time on an analogue clock for the first time.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Thanks for following up. The tutoring is going well with Patrick. He is a nice polite young man, and professional, and Nick has responded positively. I can already see a bit more confidence with his Maths work.

Thanks for your email. I am happy to let you know that Jessica has settled down very well with Patrick. She is actually enjoying her tutoring sessions and has already felt a bit stronger and more confident. I have taken some time to listen to them and they get on well and Jessica does not feel uncomfortable to ask questions. Both Jess and I are so far, very happy with Patrick's tutoring.

Nicola likes being tutored by Avi who she finds very patient and has a great ability to explain concepts so that they are easily understood.  We have had a great start and are really looking forward to some good results. As a parent I find Avi mature, responsible and reliable.  She is a good role model for Nicola.

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 Pallara State School.
