Firstly, the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to listen to what the student believes they need to work on and aid them with that. The student needs are the highest priority and it is important they feel heard and listened to. Additionally, I believe that it’s important that we as tutors take the time to acquire extra…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is be there for them and listen. It is important for students to know that mistakes are supposed to be made, and as tutors we are here to guide them through their mistakes. Furthermore, our role as tutors is to help children do the work, not do the work for them. Sometimes all students need is…

I believe patience, resilience, and the ability to think fast to generate alternate ways to regain the student's focus, particularly if they are on the younger side. Aside from paying attention to the student's attention span, more importantly, a tutor should be prepared on going about different routes to ensure understanding of course content and…

Similar to my response to the last question, I believe a tutor exists to personalise the teaching experience. What this means is understanding exactly what it is the student that gets the student stuck on a certain topic. It may be the whole topic in general or it may be that one small concept is throwing them off, but the most important thing a…

Encouragement is the most important thing that a tutor can do for a student, lack of confident may cause to bad condition when doing tests and assignments. Helping students to know how well they improve will give them courage and confident to face more challenges and difficulties. Not only provide academic help bust also a positive attitude toward…

We're very happy with how the tutoring has been going with Axel. He and my son seem to have found a good rhythm and my son is feeling more confident with his learning alread.

Inside SunnybankTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Mason focused on subtraction with numbers under 20 and explored foundational addition strategies through reading-based questions.

Year 10 student Alex revised quadratic equations by solving algebraically (using factorisation, the quadratic formula, and completing the square) and analysed features of parabolas, including turning points and axes of symmetry.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Mia worked through advanced logarithms, specifically examining domains and ranges using graphs to reinforce conceptual understanding.

Recent Challenges

A Year 7 student hesitated to attempt quiz questions without notes, as noted: "expect to do the quiz without looking back at the notes," highlighting reliance on written aids rather than independent recall.

In Year 10 algebra, a student sometimes mistook one formula for another when rearranging equations, leading to incorrect steps and lost time clarifying which method applied.

For senior years, messy bookwork appeared in graphing tasks—one tutor observed "I would like to see some organising in book work," making it difficult to track corrections or spot patterns in errors. This meant reworking problems that could have been avoided with clearer layout.

Recent Achievements

One Sunnybank tutor noted a Year 11 student who previously hesitated to ask for help now prepares thoughtful questions before each lesson, leading to clearer assignment planning and fewer mistakes.

In a recent session with a Year 9 student, the tutor observed her using strategies taught weeks earlier—she independently set out her long division steps and only needed support for minor miscalculations.

Meanwhile, a younger student who used to struggle with addition is now quick to spot unit digit patterns in calculations and confidently explains how she arrives at answers without prompting.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

All is going really well with tutor Sam , he is excellent and very good with my son Dominic.

We believe if it wasn't for Stuart; Paige would not have achieved her most recent result.

We are so happy with Dylan, he has really helped Brayden so much in the short time he has been coming to visit us and Brayden is certainly engaging well with him and as Dylan has stated in his report Brayden has been able to take what he has learnt from Dylan with him into his classroom and is now helping his friends which is great for his self confidence. Very happy overall.

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 Coopers Plains Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Sunnybank State School.
