Science Tutor Sandy Bay, TAS
A tutor needs to help the students understand the concepts and the "why" behind the problem. This allows them to be able to solve problems on their own and increase their confidence. Creating a judgment-free and supportive environment, where students can ask questions and mistakes are not punished, is essential for a tutor to help a student…

Science Tutor Lenah Valley, TAS
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to make the subject matter they are teaching enjoyable to learn. This is important because learning should be something we actively engage in and if a tutor can make it so the students seek out learning more readily then they have already succeeded in some sense. As a tutor my strengths are…

Ensure they meet there every need and ensure a student is enjoying their learning, because if there not enjoying they won’t do well.

Inside GlebeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Cameron worked on identifying adverbs and improving simple sentence structure, then applied these skills by writing a short creative piece.

In Year 11 Chemistry, Aimee revised stoichiometry with a focus on mole-mass and mass-mole conversions, and also tackled exam-style questions covering combustion reactions and specific heat concepts.

Meanwhile, Charli in Year 12 Biology reviewed the innate and adaptive immune systems through multiple choice questions, and practised applying knowledge to short answer responses from recent class topics.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Chemistry, Aimee often hesitated to apply strategies independently and tended to overcomplicate questions instead of breaking them down, which slowed her progress—she seemed overwhelmed by convoluted detail.

In Year 10 English, Scarlett sometimes rushed to answer comprehension or writing prompts without pausing to process, resulting in immediate recognition of errors after submitting responses.

For a Year 7 punctuation task, Cameron's written drafts were marked by several overlooked grammatical mistakes; attention to detail was lacking until prompted.

These patterns meant time was lost revisiting basics or correcting preventable errors rather than building new skills.

Recent Achievements

One Glebe tutor noticed Aimee now openly highlights her uncertainties during chemistry sessions—where previously she'd hesitate, she's started flagging specific questions and even tackled unfamiliar SAC topics independently.

Charli has begun actively drawing diagrams to map out biology concepts and asks for targeted clarification instead of guessing when stuck.

In primary sessions, Scarlett showed a new independence by completing the research phase of her biography project solo and brought insightful facts to draft discussions. Last week, she read her article aloud with strong expression and tone.

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 State Library of Tasmania—or at your child's school (with permission), like Campbell Street Primary School.
