Software Dev Tutor Highgate Hill, QLD
The most important thing is to understand where the issue lies, giving the student an atmosphere where he/she can open up and is not worried about being judged! I am patient and understanding. I have been through tough times too, so I take my time and try to understand the issues a student has with a specific…

Software Dev Tutor Highgate Hill, QLD
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is teach a student how to teach themselves and be self sufficient. Once the student knows how to learn, they can take on tougher and tougher concepts and still succeed. I believe my greatest strength is my perspective that my time as a uni student has given me. When tutoring I believe my experience…

Firstly, I think being a positive and supportive tutor is invaluable to the student as it will help them stay motivated and believe in themselves. Secondly, it is essential to be clear and concise when explaining subject matter. This makes the students job much easier. Lastly, the tutor should show enthusiasm towards the subject, as in my…

I feel the most common issue holding students back is a lack of confidence on their own ability to complete their work to a level they would find satisfactory. I feel then as a tutor it is most important that I help to develop a sense of proficiency within the student, at which point they will be better able to learn new content and apply it. I…

Software Dev Tutor Hamilton, QLD
The most important thing to teach as a tutor is self-autonomy, so the student isn't dependent on you to help solve each equation but can instead use frameworks. These frameworks are the thought process that can be applied to any question and after enough time patterns will form so more problems can be solved. I think my strength as a tutor is my…

The most important thing is to probably instead of spoonfeeding the information to the student, communicate the importance of practice, discipline and routine.

Treat the student in a nonthreatening, calm manner. Respect the student and their thought processes and engage them in the material. Do not be hyper-critical. It is the tutors responsibility to ensure the student fully understands a concept, i.e. they are able to apply knowledge by themselves especially in areas such as mathematics and physics. I…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is to get a proper understanding of the level of mathematical 'maturity' of a specific student, rather than just assuming a certain background knowledge. Once this is established, it's possible to get the core of what exactly a student is struggling with (usually a particular fundamental concept) and…

I think it is to listen and understand a student, and try their best to indentify what is best for them. A tutor should be emotionally supportive, and help students believe in their potential. It may be that I understand what it feels like to not be able to do or not understand something. I can empathise with students about how difficult learning…

Personalising the learning: Every student is different and it is not a one-size-fits-all approach. Catering to the individual student's needs is so important as a tutor, especially as they are looking for help outside of class.

To me, two critical aspects stand out. Firstly, it is crucial to grasp the concepts being taught and discern their relevance to the contemporary industry. Students must understand how the skills they acquire can be applied in the current world scenario. Secondly, recognizing that students are the future, it is essential to lay a solid…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student besides teaching the content, is to instill confidence in the students and make them know that whatever the challenges are that lay ahead, it can be conquered with will, hard work and determination.

Go at a pace in which the student feels comfortable, as going too quickly may be the reason they didn't understand it when their teachers taught them. Following this a tutor needs to have done some work on the subject before seeing the student as if the tutor doesn't understand what he/she is saying, the student has no chance. Also going through…

I think the most important thing I can do is to maintain patience, gain experience in communication skills, and give students a sense of accomplishment and a way to learn and, ideally, enjoy the subject, which means more than getting them to pass just one exam. One of my strengths is that I have a good foundation in mathematics and given a little…

While one of the important roles a tutor plays is to help students in their understanding, I believe the most important role is to incentivise and motivate hard work, especially by setting a good example. Tutors can only be with their students for a few hours a week, so the onus is on the student themselves to get the hard work done. The…

Tutor should have empathy with student. If tutor understands the problem of student then he/she can easily deal with it.

I have got patience which helps me to deal with all type of students.…

Local Reviews

We have been very happy with Thilac.
Kathryn, Teneriffe

Inside New FarmTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ben practised identifying and writing sentences with metaphors, similes, and personification to boost creative language skills.

For Year 11, Ella worked through her Maths Essentials assignment—focusing on completing the conclusion section—and reviewed feedback for her English IA2 task.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Jack explored chemical stoichiometry by balancing equations and briefly reviewed a recent maths assignment for clarity.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often arrived unprepared, with forgotten materials and assignments, which made it difficult to settle quickly into lessons.

In Year 10 Maths, he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors, resulting in more time spent retracing calculations than progressing.

A senior Chemistry student became sidetracked by unrelated physics content during revision, leading to incomplete review of essential topics before an upcoming assessment.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 English draft was overloaded with information but lacked clear referencing—feedback given wasn't fully addressed in the final submission, leaving assignment requirements unmet and creating last-minute stress.

Recent Achievements

One New Farm tutor noted that a Year 11 student who had previously hesitated to ask for help is now openly seeking clarification during sessions, making it much easier to target her learning needs.

In a recent Year 9 session, a student who struggled with focus earlier in the term stayed engaged through the whole lesson and completed his assignment draft with only minor corrections needed.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student showed new independence by attempting every question unprompted in his maths test—something he avoided before—and finished the series pattern problems entirely on his own.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

All is well. We agree it can take some time to settle in, but having Meg has already improved the children's routine and helped up with homework. The plan is to increase the time that she comes to 1 and a half hours. We are looking at then continuing that through next year.

We are very happy with Jacob. Brendan has developed a good relationship with him and is happy to have tutoring. His exams are next week so I am hoping he will show an improvement and be more confident going into the test.

I just want to say that Daniel has finished his HSC and he received absolutely wonderful help from Andrew. I have recommended Ezy Math Tutoring to a friend of mine who will be in touch with you. Also, Lucy has been lovely and very helpful for Julia. Julia has finished her exams for the year and she is sure that without Lucy's help she would have really struggled with her maths.

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 New Farm Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Holy Spirit School.
