Grayson

Science Tutor Wynnum West, QLD
I feel it is a priority of the tutor to pass on their passion for learning and knowledge to their students. Once this has been accomplished, however long it takes, teaching content and having the student learn it quickly and confidently is simple. Equally important is for the student to feel safe and respected around the tutor. If they do not…

Science Tutor Wynnum, QLD
A tutor needs to be able to quickly pick up on a students strengths and weaknesses so that they can focus on the correct areas of study. They also need to be able to create an optimal learning environment specialized to that specific student. Importantly a tutor needs to make the learning a fun experience for the student as this is what allows the…

Inside Wynnum WestTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Sam practised multi-digit multiplication and addition in word problems, and used diagrams to draw nets for prisms and pyramids.

In Year 9, Ethan worked through calculating compound interest with the standard formula and revised index laws.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Grace focused on applying quadratic equations to solve for roots of polynomials and began simple differentiation as it relates to physics motion questions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student often left homework incomplete and relied heavily on prompts during sessions, with the tutor noting, "he prefers I go through questions with him right away instead of attempting them solo."

In Year 11 Physics, difficulty plotting neat graphs online made it hard to interpret results—messy formatting blurred his thinking for both himself and the marker.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student rarely planned written tasks, leading to half-finished paragraphs and unclear ideas in English assignments.

During a senior session, one learner's uncharged laptop meant lost lesson time; forgotten materials and disorganization regularly interrupted progress.

Recent Achievements

In a Wynnum West tutoring session, one high school student began to check his answers independently, moving away from relying on the tutor's prompts. He now double-checks by substituting solutions back into equations before moving forward.

Another older student, who previously hesitated to speak up when confused, is now actively asking questions mid-lesson and clarifying difficult concepts out loud instead of shutting down.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student recently started to do basic arithmetic unaided; after learning a new concept once, she could practise it independently with no need for repeated explanation.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Jack and Justin are getting along well. Jack seems to have to continued to improve since Justin started tutoring.

David did come over yesterday for a lesson with Kyle. Like you mentioned, he is a diligent and competent tutor with experience in teaching. He did put in a lot of effort even before he arrived to make sure he knew what he was dealing with. I am very happy and impressed with his teaching. Just wish we had found him earlier!

Carolina likes Deeba, whom she says is a gifted teacher, & continues to learn at what is to me an amazing rate.

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 Wynnum West State School.
