I think there is more than just schooling that is important in a tutor/student relationship. Each student is unique and has their own way of visualising and understanding. For me to become a successful tutor I always do my best to understand the student. This correlates to personal life too and making sure their well-being is sound. From the…

Not only help them with understanding the concepts they are struggling with, but to also teach them problem solving methods so that they can be independent in the future. I've always struggled with conventional learning techniques utilised by teachers (and even my lecturers now), and I've had to develop my own intuitions to the concepts that they…

I believe the biggest thing a tutor can do is show the student how to study, meaning how to break down concepts and how to analyze. That way you will always have the tools should you decide to learn something later on in life. I believe I am very patient and take my time to explain things to students. I also like for them to take their time to…

A tutor needs to provide encouragement and support to guide students to a point where they can thoroughly understand the material. It is vital that a tutor also has an extensive understanding of the subject matter to guide the student. I believe that I am able to explain difficult concepts easily and in an understandable way. I tend to be patient…

Making sure the student actually understands the content being taught. A lot of students have been in that situation where a teacher may ask the student whether they understood the topic presented, and even if they didn't, they would say they did to not slow the class down or bring attention to themselves. This is what tutoring in my belief should…

It's important for a tutor to be able to provide a positive and safe learning environment for their students, where the focus is upon developing useful skills and knowledge rather than being limited by specific content.

Tutors should work to instil the confidence in their students so that they know they can achieve their goals, giving them motivation to study and be in charge of their learning. Tutoring is a great way for students to gain this confidence by creating the time for them to work alongside someone else one-on-one and with the same goal for them. Good…

It is very easy for students to feel disheartened if initial targets are not achieved, and hence as a tutor it is important for me to continue motivating students to reach their goals. In addition, no person is the same so every student tutored will have different strengths and weaknesses. As the tutor I would cater for the differences of each…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is to equip a student with critical thinking skills relating to HOW to approach a problem. If a student can frame a problem, or recognize which tools are appropriate, then the rest becomes much more manageable. - I have a good knowledge of subjects, and their applications. - I can often recommend…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is first get comfortable with the student, this will allow the student to be able to freely ask any questions that they may have to the tutor.

Tayden's lesson with Janelle went quite well. They got along pretty well and Janelle is quite an experienced tutor with a lot of patience.
Olivia, Underwood

Inside KurabyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7, Ella focused on decimal addition and subtraction as well as practicing both 2 x 2 digit and 3 x 2 digit multiplication; meanwhile, Year 8, Marcus worked through order of operations in word problems and solved volume questions involving measurement conversions.

In senior Biology, Year 11 student Lily reviewed karyotype interpretation and discussed the roles of different RNAs in protein synthesis alongside constructing energy flow diagrams for ecosystems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student's maths work showed a tendency to skip setting out full working for complex equations, making it difficult to catch errors—"his thinking for these questions was correct, but layout needs work."

In Year 11 Biology, another student did not spend enough time reading studies in detail before analysis, which slowed progress on the research investigation.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner often guessed answers rather than using drawings or calculations when tackling multiplication and word problems.

In each case, rushed or incomplete processes led to confusion or repeated mistakes during practice and revision.

Recent Achievements

A Kuraby tutor recently noticed a Year 10 student who used to avoid exam-style biology questions now confidently summarising the process of nondisjunction in her own words when prompted, showing real ownership of complex genetics content.

In Year 8 maths, another student who previously struggled with setting out calculations is now consistently writing complete expressions for worded problems and double-checking unit conversions independently.

Meanwhile, a younger learner who would guess times tables answers has begun using anchor facts and visual patterns to solve unfamiliar multiplication questions, choosing strategies herself without prompting from the tutor.

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 Logan North Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kuraby State School.
