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…

The most important thing is for the tutor to facilitate the learning experience for the student, rather than telling the student what to do.

Acoording to me the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is make a positive impact on his life by not forcing the society standards for learning and growing as every child has a different mind and way of approach to things around them. A tutor is one of the best person who can analyse this and make learning a creative activity instead…

I strongly believe that these 3 are the most important things a tutor can do for their student. 1. Guidance: This is the first reason why parents send their kids to tutor, not just to have good grades but to have proper guidance and a system when it comes to dealing with their studies. 2. Connection: There is no greater way to help these kids…

Inside NorthgateTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Vivaan focused on letter formation and early numeracy skills, including writing letters and numbers with attention to correct shape.

In Year 9, Olivia tackled the surface area and volume of composite shapes as well as applying index laws to simplify algebraic expressions, using diagrams for clarity where helpful.

For Year 11 Math Methods, Liam worked through completing the square for quadratics and practiced graphing parabolas by finding their turning points.

Recent Challenges

A Year 3 student found it hard to settle and stay focused during basic multiplication tasks—one tutor noted, "we didn't really do anything; wouldn't settle down." This meant less time on practice and slower progress with core skills.

In Year 11 Maths, another student relied heavily on the calculator for mean and standard deviation questions, often missing key formula details when entering data.

For a Year 8 algebra session, skipping steps in rearranging equations led to confusion over negative signs and order of operations.

When written work was messy or disorganized, as seen in double-line notebook exercises, mistakes were harder to catch and fix.

Recent Achievements

A Northgate tutor noticed Samantha, a Year 11 student, went from hesitating with trigonometry to asking insightful questions and working through problems on her own.

Another high schooler who previously struggled with completing the square is now solving all related questions accurately and finishing tasks on time without help.

In a recent primary session, Vivaan began openly accepting guidance to improve his handwriting—a shift from earlier reluctance—and now participates confidently in social interactions.

Last week, one student completed every simultaneous equation problem independently after needing step-by-step support just two sessions ago.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Thanks for the past 4 years of tutoring first Kendra and then Graeme. We were very happy with Tamara indeed. She made a huge difference for Kendra's Maths results. She achieved what she required for entry to her course, and we are very thankful to Tamara for that. Not only was she an excellent tutor, but a lovely person too and the kids found her very easy to understand and got on very well with her. She made a good start with Graeme, he also has improved in his Maths, fortunately we started early with Graeme.

Thank you all for your professionalism, patience and humor when engaging with our daughter! Who can make Maths more fun? Frank can! Cassie has blossomed!

Our daughter Marleen has finished her tutoring as she finished her HSC with great results: well above her predicted ATAR. A big thank you to Gordon who did a fabulous job tutoring chemistry!

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