Biology Tutor
I personally think, the most important things a tutor can do for a student is giving them clear explanations, boost students motivation and engage them in learning and offer constructive and useful feedbacks. Providing a concise and understandable explanations of complex topics and concepts is certainly an important requirement for a tutor,…

Inside Lake MacdonaldTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 Ryan worked on designing a dinner menu for a party as part of a maths assignment, applying percentage and ratio calculations.

In Year 11, one student tackled a payroll report with graphs and calculations, while another focused on modelling car speed before collisions using data analysis.

A Year 12 student revised engineering exam content, addressing bending moments in structures and applying circuit theory and basic nuclear physics through worked examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 Engineering student hesitated to seek teacher feedback or clarify assignment expectations, leading to uncertainty about aligning with QCAA exemplars—"he must actively ask and bombard his teachers with questions."

In a senior maths session, over-reliance on school-provided resources limited independent problem-solving during internal assessments.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student struggled with organizing thoughts for science and maths assignments; the effort often stalled at the planning stage rather than tackling questions directly.

Across Years 3 and 8, messy handwriting and skipped lines in written responses made it difficult to follow reasoning, especially in worded maths problems or sentence structure tasks.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Lake Macdonald recently noticed a Year 11 student who had previously been hesitant with algebra now rearranging equations and graphing lines independently, even finding x- and y-intercepts without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student who used to rush through spelling lists now pauses to pick up their own mistakes and asks clarifying questions when unsure—a big change from guessing quietly.

In primary, one Year 4 learner wrote full sentences using capital letters and full stops throughout the lesson without needing reminders for the first time, ending by reading her story out loud to the tutor.

What they say about our tutoring

Just wanted to let you know that we have been super happy with Ben as a tutor for Callum.

Aisling is great with Roger, she is strict yet fairand keeps him on his toes. Roger's passion for school has improve since having 1 on 1 sessions with Aisling.

Sam has been a fantastic tutor for Annalise, she has improved and was very proud of her end of year results at school.

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 Noosa Library Service—or at your child's school (with permission), like Cooroy State School.
