I consider empathy, support, and patience to be core qualities tutors can offer students. With empathy, an english tutor can help students feel comfortable in being honest, distressed by external factors, and other obstacles they may have to overcome in their learning journey. Patience and support go hand-in-hand with one another as by showing…

I believe two of the most important things an english tutor can do for a student are help them gain some new insight and understanding into a subject, as well as try to inspire a genuine passion for the topic. As a tutor, I believe my one of my strengnths would definitely be my intense love of English. I'm also extremely time efficeint and…

English Tutor Bannockburn, QLD
The most important thing would be to keep the student engaged - the mere delivery of information means nothing if the student is not interested, or given a chance to apply it. Providing activities is paramount in this case, as it allows students to apply concepts at a pace they are comfortable with and become familiar with them through 'learning…

English Tutor Ormeau, QLD
It is very important that a student has trust in their tutor and whilst learning can also have fun. A student needs to feel like they are in a safe environment before learning can occur. I will bring out the best in every student in their own unique ways. I will show them that they can do anything they put their mind to it and help guide them onto…

I think the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to listen to them and understand their learning style as to understand how to best approach content and exercises. As a tutor, my strengths are that I'm patient and flexible, and I am open to trying as many different approaches and strategies as necessary to help get the…

Inside WolffdeneTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Jake practised simplifying fractions and finding the lowest common multiple, then applied these skills to addition and subtraction of fractions using visual aids.

For Year 8, Emily worked through algebraic expressions—expanding brackets and reviewing homework questions on combining like terms—to build fluency in manipulation of equations.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Noah focused on trigonometry basics, including calculating unknown sides using sine and cosine rules, and solved several angle of elevation problems with step-by-step diagram support.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student was unable to complete a practice test under timed conditions, showing a reliance on tutor guidance for each question—knows the content quite well but is a bit unsure in his own abilities.

In Year 11, forgetting to use formula sheets and not reviewing feedback after errors led to repeated mistakes in trigonometry applications.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student did not attempt assigned maths homework and struggled to remember times tables without constant reference.

During long division exercises in Year 4, mixing up step order caused confusion, slowing progress when working independently.

Recent Achievements

One Wolffdene tutor noticed a Year 9 student who had struggled with multi-step algebraic equations is now independently solving sheets of bracket problems after just a few sessions—he's even begun to double-check his own work, which he rarely attempted before.

A recent high school session saw another student tackle percentages and rounding: previously hesitant, she aced every quiz question thrown at her and started using visual analogies on her own initiative.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who often rushed through math exercises has begun carefully verbalising each step aloud and highlighting keywords in word problems before attempting answers.

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