There are various skills and attitudes that a tutor should have inorder for the student to enjoy and learn during lesson time. Being able to build rapport was one of the skills that a tutor should have its a way for the student to be comfortable. Moreover, being attentive to the student is a way of making the lesson flow smoothly. For instance…

Science Tutor Annandale, QLD
I believe that a tutor should be able to assist in building confidence in their students' abilities and should encourage learning from both mistakes and criticism, as well as taking these aspects in a positive manner. I think that a tutor's job is to both work on their students' educational needs but also build strong soft skills in terms of…

Science Tutor Cranbrook, QLD
As a tutor it is vital that we make sure the student doesn't resent learning and to achieve this we must be open to how the student responds to different teaching styles and adjust our approach to make it individualised to each student. I believe my strengths include my patience and communication skills. I always found reading a textbook over and…

Science Tutor Wulguru, QLD
Be able to explain concepts simply and in different ways until the student is able to understand. Also be calm and patient and understand that students can struggle to grasp certain concepts and may take time to understand them. I'm patient and understanding. I've only been out of education for a few months so can easily remember how difficult it…

Science Tutor Douglas, QLD
Not just give the student answers but help them understand how they got to the answer that way even when you are not there, they can still complete their assignments at a satisfactory level. I'm patient, I cannot move on until I'm sure my student has understood. I'm also pretty thorough, going from the basics to the level that the child is trying…

Local Reviews

Duane is friendly, excellent at communicating with his student, and he is also punctual. Most of all, Duane has a lot of knowledge about Math. He was really able to help Arabella with her Maths questions. Also, Duane is patient with Arabella, he is able to adjust his explanation according to how Arabella will be able understand the Math problems. Nevertheless, Duane is the right tutor for Arabella. He is one of the gems in your company. In his second time coming back to tutor Arabella, we can say that we're satisfied and very happy, and he is highly recommended.

Inside North WardTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Isaac focused on writing and naming ionic and covalent compounds in Chemistry, as well as balancing chemical equations.

For Year 10, Eve worked through all her recent trigonometry questions—clarifying errors from a past exam—and also tackled problems involving similarity and congruence in triangles.

Meanwhile, Year 5 student Sophia practised converting decimals to fractions (and vice versa) alongside basic division skills, using visual aids for clearer understanding.

Recent Challenges

Repeatedly missed homework deadlines in mathematics led to extra time spent catching up on basics like division and factorising instead of progressing with new topics.

In Year 11 Chemistry, a student struggled to locate the most updated version of an assessment during a lesson—this organisation lapse delayed meaningful feedback and limited revision.

A Year 10 English learner focused on cosmetic changes but did not respond to advice about connecting body paragraphs to their thesis: Sentences weren't cohesive or linked back, as noted after a draft review. This left ideas feeling disconnected despite multiple drafts.

Recent Achievements

One North Ward tutor noticed that a Year 10 student, Eve, shifted from being unsure about trigonometry to independently identifying where she went wrong on her last test and correcting those mistakes during the session.

In Year 11 English, Jacinta arrived with all her body paragraphs drafted and brought feedback from both her teacher and previous tutoring sessions, then used that input to revise and present an improved draft without prompting.

Meanwhile, in a primary maths lesson, Sophia—who previously needed step-by-step help—tackled division problems solo for the first time and asked for more practice at the end of the session.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I would like to say that Sultan was a fantastic tutor for Daniel and I feel sad to have to end the tutoring with him. In the short time that he was tutoring Daniel, Daniel learnt a lot in maths. Could you please let Sultan know and please let him know how happy I was with him as a tutor for Daniel.

Vibhuti has been good so far, very nice and punctual. My daughter seems to get along with her well and I imagine they will get more productive as the time passes.

So far, so good with Jie tutoring Charlie. Jie is professional, organised, and has warm and friendly nature.

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 Citylibraries Flinders Street—or at your child's school (with permission), like Townsville Grammar School.
