Software Dev Tutor Woodend, QLD
The most important thing a tutor can do isn't just to lead them to the right answers but help them build confidence and self-motivation. As a tutor, I aim to help students develop independence. For me, a successful teacher is someone who can guide students to no longer needing one. I am quick to identify the strengths and weaknesses of students…

Software Dev Tutor Churchill, QLD
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to remember their position when they were at their student's age, the difficulties they faced while learning and sharing their experiences with passion to their students so they do not have to face such difficulties while learning. My strengths which may be beneficial as a tutor are…

Inside KarrabinTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Emily worked through PSMT assessment tasks, focusing on interpreting overtime pay and penalty rates, as well as reviewing order of operations with a focus on visualizing multi-step calculations.

In Year 10, Alex practiced simultaneous equations and box-and-whisker plots before tackling bearings and compound interest problems using real-world examples.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Sienna concentrated on bivariate statistics for her PSMT project by analyzing scatter plots and least squares regression lines, utilizing Excel to support her data predictions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8, a missed opportunity stood out when Emily left her notebook in class—notes couldn't be checked and vital revision material was lost.

A Year 11 session revealed that, after an exam, she "needed to take time to reflect on the test," but struggled to review errors independently without guidance.

In Year 10 algebra lessons, skipped or incomplete notes made it harder for her to recall formulas and apply them under pressure.

During PSMT assessments in senior years, reliance on verbal explanation rather than written working meant ideas weren't always fully captured—leading to confusion during revision.

Recent Achievements

One Karrabin tutoring session saw a Year 11 student, after months of finding algebra intimidating, begin to tackle problems independently and even express curiosity about more advanced concepts.

Another high schooler has shifted from silently guessing answers to confidently talking through tricky math questions out loud, using correct terminology—something she previously avoided.

In the primary years, one student who used to rush and make frequent errors now double-checks her work for mistakes before moving on.

Most recently, a Year 11 student solved compound interest questions without prompts and explained each step clearly to the tutor.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are extremely happy with Estephanie.   She has managed to hit exactly the right note.   We are just looking for Isabel to understand some basic principles and Estaphie is managing this with patience and skill.    I cannot speak highly enough of Estaphanie.

I am happy with the way things have started up.  Peter has already had an improvement in his Maths test result and I am hoping that this will also be the case with his recent SAC.

Thank you for your follow up email. Yes it all seems to be going along fine with Ben. I think Cassie is finding helpful and slowly building her confidence again. She was quite a bit behind and struggling so I understand it will probably take a little while. She had a maths test last week which Ben appeared to provide a thorough preparation for her.

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 Ipswich Libraries—or at your child's school (with permission), like West Moreton Anglican College.
