Being supportive and bonding with students while keeping the needed formality are essential. This makes students more comfortable expressing their opinions and feelings during study sessions. Thus, tutors can cater the class more to their needs and accelerate their progress. I am confident in my communication skills. I have a long history of…

Science Tutor Woodend, QLD
The most important thing a tutor can do isn't just to lead them to the right answers but help them build confidence and self-motivation. As a tutor, I aim to help students develop independence. For me, a successful teacher is someone who can guide students to no longer needing one. I am quick to identify the strengths and weaknesses of students…

Science Tutor Pine Mountain, QLD
As above, affirming their limitations JUST AS MUCH as their strengths - affirm, affirm, affirm! I believe the most fundamental truth is found in admitting and celebrating weakness. I would prioritise my strengths as: - enthusiasm - pedantic attention to detail - strong synthesising skills and understanding across a wide range of…

Science Tutor One Mile, QLD
The most important thing is approaching the task not simply as a series of questions to be answered, but instead as a dive into the nature of what is being learned and its applications to the world, which fosters a much greater depth of understanding and encourages curiosity above all else. I do not have a standard technique for learning that…

Thanks to our tutor, Daniel, I have seen a dramatic improvement in my son's confidence and ability in maths! Very reliable tutor and company has been very easy to deal with.

Inside WalloonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Emily worked on overtime pay and penalty rates, alongside strengthening her understanding of order of operations through visualisation strategies.

Year 8 student Mia focused on reviewing classwork around triangles, angles, bearings, and algorithms, as well as simplifying fractions and practicing linear equations.

For Year 11 student Josh, the session centred on bivariate data analysis—specifically interpreting scatter plots and distinguishing between dependent and independent variables for his class investigation task.

Recent Challenges

In recent senior lessons (Years 10–12), incomplete or missing notes have been a recurring issue; for example, "notes needed to be made where Emily forgot the formula," and in another case, her notebook was left at school, making it impossible to check her classwork.

In Year 11 mathematics, skipping written summaries led to confusion with algebraic methods during revision.

At the junior high level (Year 8), struggles with organizing material meant that she often relied on memory instead of structured notes—this created extra difficulty recalling steps when tackling equations.

In a Year 5 grammar session, messy work habits also slowed feedback and improvement.

Recent Achievements

One Walloon tutor noted a big shift for a Year 11 student who, after struggling with algebraic equations for months, now solves linear problems more independently and has begun double-checking her answers—something she previously avoided.

Another high schooler showed new initiative by tackling her PSMT maths project with detailed self-written explanations, instead of relying on copied notes as before.

In primary years, a younger student who used to guess during division questions is now pausing to ask clarifying questions before answering. Last week, she finished all ten division problems without needing hints.

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 Ipswich Libraries—or at your child's school (with permission), like Walloon State School.
