The most important thing a tutor can do in my opinion is be patient with a student and try and understand the problem from their perspective. By doing this, you are able to see more clearly the issue that they might be having. I also believe that finding the best learning method for a student is a key part of the role as a tutor, and this will…

In my opinion, the tutor's responsibility is to reaffirm the knowledge the student has already gained in school or help those who are behind. Considering this, I would say the most important thing is to understand and be patient with the student and help them to progress step by step. I am able to communicate with a wide range of age groups. My…

The tutor should act like a robust bridge between the student and knowledge. He/she should guide the student in achieving erudition by showing the correct path. Tutors should also try to develop interest in students for subjects and it should not be confined to the prescribed curriculum. On the other hand it is prerogative for the tutor to realize…

On top of efficiently solving problems, a tutor should be able to explain to the students why it is that they are doing what they are doing. A tutor should explain why are they studying a particular topic in mathematics and what is its application. Finally, a tutor should be able to make the student enjoy what they are doing and make students look…

Beyond the learning of a specific subject, which may appear to be the main goal of tutoring to some, the most important things I believe a tutor can do for a student is to offer an enjoyable experience of learning. The school system can be difficult and it can be easy for students to lose motivation and interest in learning. A tutor can provide…

Creating an environment where students feel comfortable making mistakes and exploring ideas they may be unsure about is one of the most important things a tutor can do.

Be interactive by continuously observing where they are at. Show don't tell. Keep challenging them by pushing the boundaries of their knowledge, but be mindful of their confidence level.

Local Reviews

We are very happy with Thilac. He is very good with Zac and knows his stuff.
Kathryn, Teneriffe

Inside TeneriffeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Emily worked through adding, multiplying, and dividing fractions as well as converting between decimals and fractions for fluency.

In Year 10, Zoe focused on solving compound interest problems and practiced using the power law to simplify indices.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Jack revised calculus skills including finding derivatives of exponential functions with the chain rule and applied these methods to solve optimisation questions involving maximum and minimum values.

Recent Challenges

Homework completion was a recurring issue for both Year 8 and Year 11 students, with "amount of homework done due to assignments is still lacking," leading to gaps in practice—especially in algebra and statistics.

In a Year 10 English assignment, referencing errors and overloaded body paragraphs signaled difficulty organizing ideas under time pressure.

A Year 12 student working on calculus repeatedly hesitated to start complex problems: "did not know where to start… need to push for more engagement."

One tutor noted a Year 9 student's tendency to avoid writing out steps in logarithms, which meant calculation slips were hard to trace later.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Teneriffe noticed a Year 11 student who previously hesitated to show her reasoning for problem-solving questions is now confidently writing out her approach, moving beyond just thinking through the steps silently.

In another high school session, a student who struggled with identifying errors during revision began recognising when to apply the chain rule while working through sin and cos calculations—something that had tripped them up before.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who often made mistakes with fractions started independently applying addition and multiplication of fractions correctly during their last session.

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