Helping students understand that they are capable of overcoming their difficulties with the subject. Helping them to identify what they need to improve in order to perform better. Teaching them that their efforts are worth it and that they can achieve their goals if they work hard. Many students give up before trying, so I think this is the first…

A tutor must give a student confidence and help them to not be overwhelmed by new topics. Once a student believes they can learn something, it is much easier to actually learn it. Tutors must also be personal and understand what method of teaching is most effective for each individual. As a recently graduated student, I am able to understand how…

I believe it is integral to grasp the individual students learning style and tailor my lessons accordingly. As a part of this, it's also important to learn what doesn't work for them, and avoid these techniques. For example, an English teacher might teach them poetic terms by getting the student to write out definitions. If a students doesn't…

Tutors should be able to convey information in a way that not only makes sense, but engages the student. A tutor should be as eager about the subject they are teaching as they are knowledgeable of the topic, and should strive to convey this excitement and passion through their teaching. The ability to help a student not only understand, but love…

In the teaching phase, student-focused teaching would be my method of teaching, which is to discover what the students need instead of dumping knowledge, whilst showing respect and understanding. When a student raises concerns about a question, which I assume in maths and sciences usually composites of concepts from multiple areas of study, I…

A tutor must be patient and listen to how the student feels and explains their material.

I think the main role of a tutor is encouraging confidence in their students. I have found that most of the time my students know the answer, they're just too afraid to say it.

I think the most important quality to bring to tuition is a sense of drive to motivate students.

High academic achievement can give a student a plethora of pathways in…

Inside NundahTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Liam focused on mastering completing the square for quadratic equations and practiced graphing parabolas by identifying their turning points.

Year 10 student Sarah worked through calculating mean, variance, and standard deviation for simple datasets, as well as tackling introductory probability questions using real-life examples.

For primary support, Year 3 student Vivaan spent time perfecting three-letter word pronunciation and improved penmanship by carefully forming numbers and letters during both English and Mathematics activities.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Maths Methods, a student repeatedly skipped writing working for quadratic problems, which made it hard to spot small errors—"he missed a sign mistake when completing the square," noted one tutor.

Meanwhile, a Year 9 student tackling statistics relied heavily on her calculator but struggled to recall formulas independently during problem-solving.

In Year 5, messy written work and scattered layout meant answers in number patterns weren't always clear, despite correct reasoning.

After a tough physics exam, one senior student's confidence dipped; he hesitated to attempt unfamiliar questions, sometimes leaving them blank under time pressure.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Nundah noticed some great shifts lately: a Year 10 student who used to freeze on "completing the square" questions now answers every one without errors and finishes all tasks within the session.

Meanwhile, a senior student who'd often guess blindly at multiple-choice physics problems has begun methodically eliminating impossible options before deciding—showing real growth in problem-solving.

On the primary side, one young learner who once hesitated to speak up now confidently writes numbers up to 40 and eagerly joins conversations, even asking for guidance when practicing handwriting instead of staying quiet.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Yes, we are very pleased that Sophia likes Rebecca and the tutoring seems to be going well. Rebecca obviously has patience and takes the time to explain things so Sophia can follow them and work through the maths, which is exactly what we wanted. The problem with the school is they move along so fast that there is not enough practice time, and we (the parents) are not familiar with what they teach so we can't just help out quickly; we have to re-learn it ourselves first, and then we're probably not good at explaining clearly. That's why it is great having Rebecca who can obviously explain things in a way Sophia understands. The main thing is that Sophia sees herself as 'Ëśno good at maths', but when something is explained so she understands it, she is very pleased when she can get the right answers. A lot of it is a confidence thing I think, and also her school maths teacher has been quite negative about her work; so hopefully the tutoring will rebuild some of Sophia's general confidence over time, which would be great. Sophia will never be a star at maths, but if she can just get passes instead of always negative marks and comments from school, we will be quite happy with that. Sophia is very good at English/Hums and art; maths is her weak area, and we are very pleased (and actually surprised) that she is sitting through an hour of maths tutoring each week without complaint. We did not know how it would go; we tried one other tutor a few months ago , a retired male maths teacher - and she hated it. So this time we are very happy.

So far so good with Tim. Tim is now tutoring both my kids and both are really happy with him. Results will show in the months to come. It is early days but we are very happy so far.

Michael has really enjoyed having Raj come as his tutor.  In fact he also managed to get 80% on his last algebra test at school.  It has really empowered him to want to do well in maths and he looks forward to his tutoring session each week. We look forward to seeing him continue on his maths journey throughout the year. Many thanks Ps. I have referred a few of my friends onto your website as their kids were having difficulty too!!!

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 Mary MacKillop College.
