English Tutor Kirwan, QLD
One of the most important things an english tutor can do for a student is to not only teach content but to be there as a mentor. Exam periods, life and post-school options can all be stressful for students and it is vital that a tutor can mentor students throughout this through stress mechanisms. This, coupled with effective teaching methods and…

English Tutor Douglas, QLD
One of the most important things an english tutor can do is motivate the student and help build their love for the subject. Helping the student let go of their fear of the subject can not only help them in the present but also aid them in their future endeavours. I personally am aware of the feeling of fearing a subject but also conquering this…

English Tutor Annandale, QLD
I believe that a tutor should be able to assist in building confidence in their students' abilities and should encourage learning from both mistakes and criticism, as well as taking these aspects in a positive manner. I think that a tutor's job is to both work on their students' educational needs but also build strong soft skills in terms of…

English Tutor Wulguru, QLD
Be able to explain concepts simply and in different ways until the student is able to understand. Also be calm and patient and understand that students can struggle to grasp certain concepts and may take time to understand them. I'm patient and understanding. I've only been out of education for a few months so can easily remember how difficult it…

Inside ThuringowaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Sophia focused on simplifying index laws and working with integers, also practising order of operations using real test questions from school.

For Year 9, Eve worked through all the trigonometry problems and tackled similarity and congruence questions from her past exam, with targeted explanations for errors.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Isaac concentrated on chemistry by identifying ionic and covalent bonds in compounds and determining their chemical formulas through guided practice questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 mathematics, a student repeatedly left homework unfinished and missed practice with sign rules—she made several silly mistakes with positive and negative signs when numbers were moved from RHS to LHS, noted one tutor.

In Year 11 chemistry, confusion arose during gas law problems because resources weren't prepared; the session slowed while searching for a textbook instead of practicing equations.

Meanwhile, in Year 7 English, incomplete organization meant a student couldn't locate her most updated assessment draft for feedback. Each instance led to lost time or repeated errors rather than building confidence or deepening understanding.

Recent Achievements

A Thuringowa tutoring session saw Jacinta, a high school student, bring in a revised essay draft that showed clear improvement after feedback—something she'd hesitated with before.

Another high school win came from Lauren, who started asking questions when stuck on the Pythagorean theorem rather than guessing or staying silent, showing new independence compared to her first lesson.

Meanwhile, Sophia in Year 6 began solving division problems unaided for the first time and finished all her homework without help, marking a real step forward from needing frequent guidance.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Hi this is Jim & Kathy Chloe's parents we are happy how everything is progressing and couldn't be more delighted.

My son Liam smith is very happy with his tutor Bethan, he seems to have learnt quite quickly up to now. Everything is going well .. Thank you

So far we are very happy with Daniel. He has a good rapport with Minyu and she has a much more positive attitude towards Maths already which was one of my concerns.

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 Citylibraries Riverway—or at your child's school (with permission), like Indie School, Logan - Thuringowa Central Campus.
