Being supportive. Every student is different and has a different way of catching and understanding things, you just have to be patient and supportive. I feel like growing up most teachers were boring, and could not deliver the concept or usefulness of the things that were being taught. So when I teach I make sure I deliver not only the concepts…

I believe the most important things a tutor can provide are motivation and discipline. I might not be the smartest tutor, but I’m there to accompany my students, help them trust themselves, remind them of their goals, and keep them disciplined in their studies whenever they feel lost. It’s not about how fast they progress but about the…

I think the best tutors teach at a speed that the student requires. If a tutor is impatient, not only does it reduce what the student learns but also discourages them from asking for help. Tutors need to accommodate each specific student, as each one is different. I have been studying for a Bachelor of Law/Arts for the past four years. This study…

Communication and trust. Where one may be very knowledgable about the subject, if there is no communication, then there would be no point in tutoring if the student does not understand. Trust is also important because the student needs to trust the tutor and listen to them. In this vein, the tutor must also trust the student to focus and work…

Inside Mount NathanTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student India worked on two and three times tables, telling time on an analogue clock, and using money for practical calculations.

Year 10 student Jade focused on algebraic techniques, including solving equations and applying Pythagoras' theorem to right-angled triangles.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Lisa tackled Biology concepts such as calculating Simpson's Diversity Index for biodiversity studies and constructing punnet squares to predict genetic outcomes.

Recent Challenges

The Year 12 biology student was hesitant to use scientific resources beyond websites for assignments and often needed to double-check unfamiliar methods or terminology with her teacher—"Lisa needed to confirm the results with her teacher as there were things that she hadn't covered in class."

In Year 10 maths, one student's graph work suffered from formatting issues; adjusting how data was graphed took up valuable session time.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 algebra student doubted herself when tackling new types of problems, which slowed progress during practice: this meant more energy spent seeking reassurance than building fluency in key skills.

Recent Achievements

One Mount Nathan tutor noticed a big shift in Ella's approach to maths: after struggling with worded problems and trigonometry, she now draws her own diagrams and breaks down the questions independently before solving them—something she avoided before.

In biology, Lisa began reviewing teacher feedback unprompted on her report and made adjustments during the session instead of waiting for guidance.

Meanwhile, in Year 3, India moved from hesitating with addition games to racing through them faster than ever—she even solved every card correctly using new strategies picked up last week.

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 Helensvale Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Silkwood School.
