In my experience there are parts of courses that a student can not or would not understand on their own, however through my assistance to understand road blocks in course content and as a result help resolve and navigate them to me is the most important aspect of the job. I can explain course content in a manner students would find engaging and…

I also believe it's very important for tutors to be patient and considerate when students are learning. I believe that I can teach in a fun, enjoyable and visual manner…

Teaching minds, touching hearts, transforming lives. Aside from the mastery of the subject being taught, developing a genuine bond between tutor and student, helping them apply or understand the gravity or importance of their study and why they should not take it for granted. In other words, helping them not only in the four corners of the…

I think a lot of the more important parts of tutoring is involved in the study technique and supporting students to find the motivation in themselves to study and do the work. Being the person that has got their back. Although of course the specific content they are learning is important as well. In addition a lot of students struggle with…

Offer another way of learning that teachers aren't able to. Teachers have to teach a multitude of students so if a single student in lagging behind the class, they aren't able to help. That is where tutors come in, tutors help students with specific areas of study and also prepares the student for exams and assignments in order for the student to…

A tutor must always ask the student if they understand what they have been learning and make sure to give them exercises to know for a fact they do understand what they are learning.

Everyone has different needs, and a tutor helps accommodate those needs in an efficient way. Inspiration can go a long way, and improving their enjoyment of a subject may set them up for a future they love. When I tutored my friends in…

According to me, a tutor must collaborate with his students to set realistic goals for them in the short as well as long term. Apart from that, a tutor should definitely empower students with effective study methods, time management strategies, and organizational techniques as it encourages them to develop independence in their learning journey.…

In my opinion, the most important thing will be to give the child my time and attention.

Strengths: - strict and firm (not fierce) - emphasize on…

Inside KahibahTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Chloe focused on algebra skills by working through equations she found challenging in homework, then applied the Pythagorean theorem to solve practical geometry problems.

Year 11 student Olivia tackled probability concepts, using Venn diagrams and two-way tables to interpret worded questions and calculate relative frequencies.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Jack concentrated on financial mathematics—solving compound interest and depreciation problems by interpreting multi-step scenarios and rearranging relevant formulas for exam preparation.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11, one student repeatedly left sections of assigned maths homework incomplete—"not completed part of the homework which was given on year 11 content"—resulting in gaps when attempting non-right angle trigonometry questions.

For a Year 12 student, notes showed that limited independent revision ("only about an hour weekly") and undated study notes meant key financial maths concepts and bivariate data interpretation were still weak as exams approached.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 learner's algebra work was hard to follow due to missing steps; as observed, "really need to focus on writing down steps & showing working." This led to confusion and slower progress during lessons.

Recent Achievements

A Kahibah tutor recently noticed a Year 11 student who used to skip steps is now writing out every stage of complex worded maths questions, which has made interpreting problems much smoother for him.

In Year 10, Jackson—who previously needed regular help with exam-style questions—is now tackling higher-level financial maths and normal distribution tasks almost entirely independently after focusing on memory techniques and self-review.

Meanwhile, a younger student in Year 3 went from struggling with terminology at the start of sessions to confidently naming all main 3D shapes and even scoring full marks when working with more challenging numbers during practice.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Afra has met with Jasmine once so far as we have had the holidays. I think it went really well and Jasmine is actually looking froward to her next lesson this Saturday.

Lazarus is very happy with Joseph. I think Joseph will be a good fit for Lazarus' learning needs.

Charley has warmed to Charissa. It is great that she is young, female, confident and friendly. We have had two sessions so far and taken a break over the holidays. When Charissa returns from her holiday we will continue with regular weekly sessions and hopefully during the coming weeks/months Charissa can help Charley understand how to plan and do her homework regularly rather than with panic the morning that it is due!

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 Charlestown Library, walyamayi—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kahibah Public School.
