Engineering Studies Tutor East Toowoomba, QLD
Building a deep connection with the student. Solving a problem together and clearly explaining why they went wrong and how it can be improved. This way the student can answer any problem with ease. I build a deep connection with the student and create custom analogies to make them clearly understadn the concept. I use active recall in my teaching…

Engineering Studies Tutor Darling Heights, QLD
In my opinion, the most important thing about tutoring is creating rapport with the student. Because when the student likes you, he/she begins to trust you. And when you gain their trust, they would listen to what you are saying then they would learn what you are tutoring. As a tutor, my strength is I have a really deep foundation of Mathematics…

Inside Mount LoftyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Tom reviewed annuities and compound interest calculations in financial maths, then briefly explored key concepts in network theory.

For Year 12, Bonnie practised balancing redox reactions in Chemistry—identifying oxidised and reduced species and ensuring electron balance—and also tackled logarithmic functions in Maths Methods.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student worked through area calculations for compound shapes such as triangles and trapezoids using worksheets to consolidate problem-solving skills.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student struggled with integrating functions because "he hadn't written out all parts of the function before starting," making it harder to spot missing terms and leading to lost marks.

For a Year 12 Chemistry assignment, another needed clearer structure—without guidance on layout, the main points were buried, affecting clarity and assessment against criteria.

In Year 5 maths, homework was left incomplete; as noted, "he had not done any of the homework assigned either," so gaps in basic multiplication skills persisted. These lapses meant more lesson time spent revisiting basics instead of building new understanding.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Mount Lofty recently noticed a real shift with a Year 11 student who, after previously struggling to interpret data when answers didn't match expectations, began adjusting his approach independently by analysing inconsistencies and modifying solutions rather than second-guessing himself.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student who often skipped over teacher feedback now recognises the intent behind comments and purposefully implements them in final responses.

On the primary side, one younger student—who used to avoid homework—turned up having practised her times tables unprompted and finished all assigned problems for the week.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We had one lesson with Taruka, she is lovely and Isabella enjoyed it. With school holiday and long weekend we haven't managed another but will definitely be starting up next week again.

Both of the tutors that you have sent have been fantastic - very knowledgeable, great with Ollie, could not be happier

I am very pleased with Gabrielle and so is Thomas, so a great start. Just having a  mentor has boasted Thomas's confidence enormously and I listen to how Gabrielle communicates with Thomas and I am amazed. Thomas is very happy.

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 Highfields Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Toowoomba State High School.
