A tutor can help a student develop the necessary skills,by which he can learn and understand by himself. Also, he can help identify the students weaknesses and provide alternatives by which the student can easily learn. I have patience and understanding. I also have excellent writing skills. Moreover, I like challenges and I love it when I can…

English Tutor Kearneys Spring, QLD
Not only is knowing the content extremely important, but the way tutors teach the content is more important. Every student has their own needs, and an english tutor must recognise that some teaching strategies might work for some but not work for others. My strengths is my teaching style. I believe my ability to connect with the student allows the…

English Tutor Drayton, QLD
The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to teach and help them to learn. The tutor should help the student develop their own skills by setting a good example. I have lots of patience when it comes to teaching. I never stop until the students got what the topic is all…

Local Reviews

Orrin was not really keen on the idea in the beginning but I believe Terence is a great fit for Orrin and their first session ( from what I can tell ) went really well - Orrin really enjoyed it and he said even though it was like schoolwork because it was Math, Terence made it sort of fun and he feels more confident already on the work they did on Monday - He mentioned that even his math teacher made a comment about his work in class this week being more productive!

Inside WestbrookTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Tom reviewed balancing redox reactions in Chemistry, focusing on identifying **oxidised and reduced species** and correctly balancing electrons, and also tackled tricky logarithmic functions in Maths.

For Year 12 student Sam, lessons addressed **integration techniques** in Maths Methods using a worksheet of varied questions, along with feedback and guidance on his Specialist Maths assignment draft.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Bonnie worked through financial maths concepts like **annuities and compound interest**, as well as time zone calculations within Earth Geometry.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 Chemistry student faced a setback when a computer crash resulted in significant lost assignment work; this disruption made it difficult to organise and reassemble key experiment details before the next deadline.

In Year 10 Mathematics, as noted, "needs to put the pieces together to develop the final strategy for the assignment"—uncertainty about structuring longer responses slowed progress on complex function questions.

For a Year 4 learner, homework was frequently incomplete or missing, which meant less practice with multiplication tables and delayed improvement in word problems.

When tired after school, a Year 6 student struggled to maintain focus, so key steps were often skipped or written unclearly.

Recent Achievements

One Westbrook tutor noticed a real shift with a Year 12 student: after previously struggling to interpret inconsistent data in Chemistry, he now adapts his approach mid-question, modifying answers based on what the evidence actually shows rather than forcing an expected result.

In another high school session, a Year 10 student who used to rely heavily on hints is now independently working through integration problems and even recognising where positive and negative areas come into play.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner—who once avoided reading aloud—is now volunteering to read new passages during sessions, showing much more willingness to try without prompting.

What they say about our tutoring

I think that things are going well- we only had one session so far but Jake seems great and does a great job of explaining things to her. I will definitely comment further once we get a bit further down the line, but happy so far!

We are very happy with Amanat. My son enjoys his sessions with him and that is a huge indicator for me as a parent. Amanat is so lovely and approachable with any questions I have and I like his commitment to my sons learning even though he is busy himself, nothing is ever an issue. I would recommend your business to other people and especially Amanat.

I am extremely happy with Nicky's tutoring. She instantly developed a lovely rapport with my daughter Bonnie. Nicky is very patient and great at explaining maths concepts in a way that is easy for Bonnie to understand. I am already seeing a much more positive attitude to maths in Bonnie and she feels more confident to do maths lessons at school. We got a good one!

Local Spots for Tutoring

If you'd prefer not to have lessons at home, tutoring can also take place at a local library or at your child's school (with permission), like Ming-De International School Toowoomba.
