English Tutor Upper Caboolture, QLD
I think the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to show the student that they can have fun while they learn. I am a very patient person and I am able to explain things in a variety of different ways, a skill, that I believe, of vital importance to a tutor. I also love coming up with different ways to make sessions as fun…

Listen to feedback. Make sure they understand what they are being taught and determine if a new approach is needed. Sometimes the same information can be summarised and presented in a different way that is just easier for some people to understand. My own capacity for learning. Information retention and comprehensive analysis. Communication…

English Tutor Bellmere, QLD
For me its the concept of instilling confidence. So often children are discouraged by a challenging question and then feel incapable and worthless. This is wrong on so many levels and child should ever feel this way. The most important things an english tutor can do is instill confidence in children through patiently encouraging them to never give…

English Tutor Morayfield, QLD
Not just simple topic understanding but also inspiring the individual to continue to pursue an understanding in their studies in a holistic sense. My strength in mathematics by far. I'm currently completing a dual degree in business management and mathematics at UQ. I would also say i am quite personable and come across as very…

Inside RocksbergTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Joshua tackled trigonometry questions, including the sine and cosine rules, and practiced transposing equations from his textbook.

Year 8 student Rebecca focused on simplifying ratios and worked through homework problems involving multiplying and dividing like terms.

Meanwhile, Summer in Year 3 practiced addition and subtraction using number lines and built confidence with telling time on analogue clocks.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student's notes in Maths remain inconsistent; "writing things down is better to cement ideas," but he still relies heavily on verbal prompts and rarely backchecks his working, leading to repeated mistakes in percentage questions.

In Year 8, a student skipped key steps when tackling probability problems—this meant errors crept in unnoticed until the answer didn't make sense.

A Year 5 student often avoided talking aloud or taking written notes, making it hard for her to spot where reasoning went astray.

Missed note-taking habits and reluctance to work through problems on paper left gaps that grew between lessons.

Recent Achievements

One Rocksberg tutor noticed Joshua, a high school student, now rates his confidence with discounts at 4/5 after starting at 2/5 and has begun studying on his own outside of class—a big change from relying solely on guided sessions.

Rebecca, also in high school, recently picked up the basics of cartesian planes quickly and managed to answer all textbook questions without needing hints, showing new independence she didn't display before.

In Year 3–4, Summer is now able to work through money problems independently using a step-by-step guide, instead of waiting for prompts or reassurance.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Pat is fantastic !!! Very respectful, conscientious young man and a very good teacher.

We are extremely happy with Thir And Jack is off to a great start and has shown early signs of improvement so we are very thankful for the assistance we have received.

Delila is a delight! She has established a great rapport with Isabella in the two lessons so far; and has expressed a commitment to helping Isabella in the long term. She has a lovely personality; and Isabella really really likes her already. I could not be more pleased.

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 Caboolture Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Mount Mee State School.
