The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is grow their confidence in the subject matter so that they know, with work, they will understand what their teacher is telling them and succeed rather than constantly feeling defeated. I believe my main strength as a tutor will be my ability to communicate with students. It is important not to…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to take the time to understand what aspect of their learning is causing them difficulty, and to address it.

The tutor should act like a robust bridge between the student and knowledge. He/she should guide the student in achieving erudition by showing the correct path. Tutors should also try to develop interest in students for subjects and it should not be confined to the prescribed curriculum. On the other hand it is prerogative for the tutor to realize…

Inside MorningsideTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Rebecca focused on long division of polynomials and applications of derivatives to functions.

In Year 11, Daniel worked through solving quadratic equations using the quadratic formula and revisited area properties for right-angled triangles.

For Year 12, Michael concentrated on bivariate data analysis and time series analysis, including calculating moving averages, as part of his exam preparation.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Maths Methods, a student who transitioned from General Maths struggled to attempt questions independently; as one tutor noted, "she needed more guidance than expected with exam-style problems."

In another senior case, feedback provided on a PSMT draft was not fully addressed before final submission, meaning missed opportunities for improvement.

Meanwhile, in Year 8, messy written work during linear equations tasks made it hard to spot errors and slowed revision.

In primary years, unfinished homework remained an ongoing issue—especially with assigned worksheets—which meant less class time could be devoted to new concepts.

Recent Achievements

One Morningside tutor noticed Dyllan, a high school student, has started to tackle long division of polynomials independently after needing significant prompting in earlier sessions—he now checks his own work by expanding brackets without reminders.

Meanwhile, Phoenix, also in high school, made real strides using Excel for statistical analysis; he not only created scatter plots and regression lines but began interpreting relationships between variables on his own.

At the primary level, Mikayla shifted from waiting passively for help to actively asking questions when stuck during homework—something she hadn't done before this term.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I know it is only early days but Harley and Owen seem to have '˜clicked'.  They are working really well and not only is Harley's confidence growing but also his understanding of the maths chapters they have been studying has improved.   I no longer have to hassle him to do his homework - always a bonus!

Henry has had 3 sessions with Justin so far, and it is going very well. His current topic is algebra and he feels that he is benefitting from the additional assistance. Justin is punctual, helpful (even stayed back an extra 10-15 minutes last week to help Henry with a problem-solving sheet) and is very pleasant to have around.

Thank you for your email.  I am really enjoying working with David, he makes the study fun and very interesting. We're working through some gaps in my knowledge and then I am greatly looking forward to getting into the much more complicated and exciting math.

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 Bulimba Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Morningside State School.
