The most important thing I think a tutor can do for a student is to instil in them a good approach to learning through teaching them practical techniques to work smarter and get more out of the effort that they put into the subject. Demystifying task sheets for a student and teaching them how to manage their time and develop a good working…

I have a wide range of knowledge in many areas, not just in my speciality areas.I can relate to my students and empathise with their difficulties. I'm also very…

I think that being able to just help a student with whatever they ask and helping them to improve is the most important thing. Even if their not doing super well, I think that as a tutor if you can help them with just improving and if they can see that improvement, then I've done my job as a tutor. Furthermore, I think its important for a tutor to…

Tutor Morningside, QLD
A good tutor, in my opinion, is the one who can make students interested in topics. I believe that people can be excited or exhausted about the same topic depending on the tutor's teaching attitude. If a tutor is successful in making students interested in their courses, students can then be more likely to be hard-working and successful. I can…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to make them passionate about the subject. I wholeheartedly believe that a student must not cram information purely for grades, but to generate a genuine interest for the subject with the assistance of the tutor. I am very familiar with working with children from a large variety of ages. I…

Inside WakerleyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ben practised addition and subtraction with money, focusing on real-life examples like shopping scenarios.

In Year 9, Chloe tackled linear equations and reviewed core concepts from the curriculum to strengthen her algebra skills.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Olivia worked through log laws and applications as well as starting differentiation and integration using practice questions for deeper understanding.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 Maths, interpreting complex worded questions often caused hesitation—one note captured it: "struggled to decide which formula applied in perimeter and area problems."

A Year 11 student working on logarithms tended to rely heavily on calculator shortcuts when stuck with base conversions, sometimes missing the underlying method.

In Legal Studies (Year 12), difficulty structuring research for a domestic violence email meant extra time was spent searching for relevant agencies instead of drafting content.

For a younger student in Year 4, confusion over long division remainders led to incomplete answers and visible frustration mid-task.

Recent Achievements

One Wakerley tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to hesitate on worded maths problems now reads them aloud and underlines key info before tackling each step independently.

In a recent session with a Year 12 student, there was clear progress when she solved integration questions without needing hints—a big shift from relying on the tutor for every stage last term.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who previously mixed up "b" and "d" in spelling quizzes wrote out her entire list with zero reversals this week and finished her times tables worksheet without corrections.

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 Moreton Bay Boys' College.
