A tutor must be able to get the student to their goal without the tutor doing the work however instead mentoring the student to get there. This platform will enable the student to apply for future studies such as uni. Another important thing is time management and work ethic the tutor must teach to the student to enable the greatest amount of…

To not give extra bad pressure to students. A tutor should help make a learning environment and time, where learning a frustrating topic becomes enjoyable, rather than further creating a frustrating learning environment which can lead to more stress in school. The aim as a tutor is to help the student gain courage in their ability to learn the…

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…

I believe that one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to explain the concept behind a problem more thoroughly than do the problem itself with them. This can be achieved by breaking up a complex problem, which may rely on more than one mathematical concept such as trig and calculus. By splitting up the parts of the…

Creating a comfortable environment in which the student can ask any questions without fear of judgement.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is give a student confidence. A lot of academic success is really self-belief and believing you can do the problem before you begin. If you do not have confidence i.e., you do not think you can do it. It becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. That's why I am so passionate about this, since I believe I…

Local Reviews

A very prompt response with my inquiry returned with a friendly a informative phone call.

Inside CapalabaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student James focused on binomial and normal distributions, including how to interpret and extract key information from worded probability questions.

In Year 8, Emma worked through bivariate data analysis by calculating Pearson's correlation coefficient and improving her note-taking for statistics topics.

For primary, Year 3 student Paige practised identifying sentence types—interrogative, imperative, declarative, exclamatory—and converted verbs into past, present, and future tenses while checking grammar as she wrote.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student arrived without the necessary materials, limiting progress on targeted questions; as a tutor noted, "he should have his work ready for next time."

In senior maths, a student's written solutions lacked clear layout and structure, making it harder to spot errors during complex algebra or financial problems.

Another senior student showed over-reliance on notes for remembering formulas instead of committing them to memory—this slowed her response in timed practice.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner avoided asking for help when unsure how to begin a long division problem, leading to repeated missteps and frustration.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Capalaba recently noticed a Year 10 student who used to skip over mistakes now stops and explains what went wrong before correcting her algebra, which has made her homework much more accurate.

In a senior maths session, one student, after struggling with probability distributions last term, can now confidently handle any discrete random variable question in the textbook without hesitation.

Meanwhile, Paige in primary school began sounding out syllables on her own for tricky spelling words and often fixed errors before the tutor pointed them out—last week she spelled eight out of eleven correctly after getting only five right previously.

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 Capalaba Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Capalaba State College.
