Ultimately, the most important things a tutor can do for a student are provide academic guidance, human connection, and consistency, and the combination of these factors can potentially reinvent a class, subject, or school more broadly for a young learner. Some qualities of a good tutor include skills in communication, listening, collaboration,…

I believe tutoring helps students develop a genuine love for learning. There are 2 characteristics a tutor needs to achieve this. Firstly, the tutor should have an open and friendly personality. Learning is inherently effortful, and having someone friendly to guide the process makes it more enjoyable and productive. Additionally, tutors need to…

Inspire them to be better. I'm great when it comes to learning about a student and getting them to be comfortable with the way I teach. This builds a sense of confidence where the student can slowly open to what help they really require. Although it is hard talking about my weaknesses as a tutor, its one way to learn. As we all know a good…

Being respectful is one of the best ways to connect with a student, and allows students room to speak up about any issues they are having. Having good management skills will ensure students are taught with well prepared content, and also be heared with appropriate after class learning material to prepare for the next lesson. Very good…

One of the most important things I believe a tutor can do is to make their student confident in themselves. I don’t think simply teaching the material in a subject is enough - it is the tutor's job to make sure the student really understands what they are learning, and to make sure the student not only thrives academically but becomes more…

According to me, the most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is wake up their curiosity. Getting good grades are important, but equally important is to make sure that the student is enjoying and understanding the subject being taught. As this helps make the student pursue the subjects further. These are the future of the humanity,…

I think a tutor can give a student confidence, that a student doesn't need to be intimidated by a STEM class. The general attitude that these subject are 'too hard' or that a student 'will never use these skills again' sets up bright students for failure before they even set foot in a classroom. The most important thing a tutor can do is boost a…

Educators play an important role in how students minds are shaped and how they approach problems in their studies. Believing in students that they can achieve their goal is one of the most important aspects of teaching them so it encourages them to strive towards their goal rather than realise they aren't capable enough. Watching them set out a…

The maths tutor, Promit has been excellent. His tutoring has assisted my son to increase his capacity at mathematics at school and he is now doing well. Promit is thorough, patient and detailed in his approach to teaching.

Inside AlgesterTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Ed worked on long division and converting between improper and mixed fractions, using step-by-step examples to boost accuracy.

In Year 9, Ruby focused on financial mathematics, including budgeting tasks and solving real-life word problems with ratios.

For Year 11, Grace tackled network concepts such as drawing networks and determining latest start/earliest start times, plus practiced questions from her revision sheets ahead of exams.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student repeatedly tried to solve equations in his head rather than writing steps, which led to "mistakes due to rushing," as one tutor observed; this habit persisted even after reminders and caused confusion especially during algebra and mental maths.

In Year 11, a student arrived at her assignment unsure of what was required or how to plan her approach—she struggled with breaking tasks into smaller steps, delaying meaningful progress on the project.

Another senior student tackling bearings questions often created unclear diagrams, making it difficult to label angles or directions accurately and causing avoidable calculation errors.

Recent Achievements

One Algester tutor noticed a big change in a Year 10 student who used to skip writing out maths working; now, he carefully shows each step and even caught his own errors during long division without prompting.

Another high school student, Ruby, has begun revising independently and completed her revision sheet multiple times at around 75% accuracy—a major shift from relying on reminders before tests.

In a recent Year 5 session, the student worked through tricky two-digit multiplication problems unaided after struggling last term, finishing all practice questions without asking for help.

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 Sunnybank Hills Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Algester State School.
