The most important thing is to understand the students misconceptions and how to correct the cause of that misconception. To ensure that their fundamental knowledge is corrected before pursuing more complex tasks. It is also essentially to show empathy and respect so they may respect you back and try their best for you. I am empathetic and…

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 believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them in becoming more confident in their ability to do the work in the subjects they need help in. I think my strengths as a tutor are such things as: my patience, my ability to understand what it’s like to struggle in class, my ability to explain things multiple ways, my…

I believe a tutor's duty is not to necessarily improve the intellectual capability of their client, but rather, guide them in a way that allows them to harness their own learning potential through customised, carefully tailored programs specific to the individual. Whilst this may not necessarily be viable for every circumstance, it is the role of…

I think it's important to inspire, encourage and boost student's confidence. Sometimes a change in attitude can be enough to increase understanding. I personally believe I am a good learner, given that i've been able to score highly in high school as well in university. This has allowed to me to transfer my knowledge and skills to my…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student, is to explain concepts, theories and course content in an easy to understand, and easy to recall way.

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them achieve their goal(s). One student wants to get through a difficult subject, another wants to top the class.

I think being positive and encouraging is the best thing a tutor can do. With previous students I have tutored, I found that many of them lacked the confidence in themselves, making them less interested in the work and anxious about assessments. But breaking the question/concept down, encouraging them to try, suggesting different methods to…

I believe that learning should be a fun process. When students are engaged in learning, they can actually retain what they have learnt during the lesson. Being encouraging helps students gain confidence in their abilities and increases their willingness to learn. It is also important for a tutor to guide the student in the right direction so that…

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.
