Ancient History Tutor Wakerley, QLD
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is to help the child grow and learn through assistance, rather than just providing the answers, as they need to understand what they are learning, and need to be able to develop the skills learned and apply them to their studies. The most important thing for a tutor is to help them become…

Making sure that the learning content is tailored to the needs of the child. Children with special needs require extra support and compassion. I would also say that it’s important for the tutor to be patient and listen to the child. I have some background in teaching and dealing with children, and I’m quite easy to get along with. I have only…

The most important thing a tutor can do for their student is never let them lose their confidence and motivation. Before assessments most students are their worst enemy, stressing themselves out to the point in which they forget everything they have learned. I too have done this and know it comes from a lack of confidence. Therefore, it is…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to take the time to understand what aspect of their learning is causing them difficulty, and to address it.

Make them interested in the content. The students won't want to learn unless they care about the content and while grades are good motivators, pure enjoyment and interest in a subject make it easier to learn.

The most important thing for a tutor to do is inspire self-believe and uncover topics that may become a passion for children. From this, tutors should foster a willingness to develop the child's skills and even potentially find a career path or tertiary education option within a specific area.

Inside WakerleyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ben practised addition and subtraction with money, focusing on real-life examples like shopping scenarios.

In Year 9, Chloe tackled linear equations and reviewed core concepts from the curriculum to strengthen her algebra skills.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Olivia worked through log laws and applications as well as starting differentiation and integration using practice questions for deeper understanding.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 Maths, interpreting complex worded questions often caused hesitation—one note captured it: "struggled to decide which formula applied in perimeter and area problems."

A Year 11 student working on logarithms tended to rely heavily on calculator shortcuts when stuck with base conversions, sometimes missing the underlying method.

In Legal Studies (Year 12), difficulty structuring research for a domestic violence email meant extra time was spent searching for relevant agencies instead of drafting content.

For a younger student in Year 4, confusion over long division remainders led to incomplete answers and visible frustration mid-task.

Recent Achievements

One Wakerley tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to hesitate on worded maths problems now reads them aloud and underlines key info before tackling each step independently.

In a recent session with a Year 12 student, there was clear progress when she solved integration questions without needing hints—a big shift from relying on the tutor for every stage last term.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who previously mixed up "b" and "d" in spelling quizzes wrote out her entire list with zero reversals this week and finished her times tables worksheet without corrections.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

My daughter Jasmine has been tutored by Thomas Ban in maths for the past few years. She recently was accepted into the gifted and talented class for year 7 at Stella Maris and also received an "Outstanding" grade (highest grade possible) for Maths this year. We just wanted to thank Thomas Ban for the wonderful work he has done with Jasmine this year. We feel that she has received these grades due to Thomas tutoring. He has challenged and pushed her to work harder and improve her maths. He is also extremely professional and courteous.

Aryo is very happy with Brittany and looking forward to see her which is a good start !

I am confident that Mandeep's approach is just what Hugo and Havier need to lift their confidence and capabilities to be the best they can be.

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 Wynnum Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Moreton Bay Boys' College.
