Make them comfortable enough to absorb knowledge by making them strong in the basics inside and outside the tutoring session. My understanding of the balance between efficiency and patience. I would want to educate my students to the best of my ability but also do so knowing that all topics need to be covered as…

Science Tutor Hamilton, QLD
The most important thing to teach as a tutor is self-autonomy, so the student isn't dependent on you to help solve each equation but can instead use frameworks. These frameworks are the thought process that can be applied to any question and after enough time patterns will form so more problems can be solved. I think my strength as a tutor is my…

I think the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to eliminate anxiety surrounding the subject, and create positive learning experiences through the use of praise and purposeful learning. It is important to acknowledge every achievement, no matter how big or minor, to increase confidence and self-worth. It is important that a tutor…

Promote confidence in students to solve problems. Since I was once a student I understand it can be frustrating or not always worth the effort. I will be there to inspire the student why there is any value to what they are learning and cater for their needs the best I can. Breaking down harder concepts. I prefer making thing simple and allowing…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is create a positive learning environment. Students need to feel safe and they should be excited to learn. If tutors create a happy, welcoming and productive teaching space, the student will be more willing to listen and participate. This includes always staying calm and never becoming…

For me, making sure the student does not feel intimidated is vital, especially if they are working with a private tutor. If a student feels scared or intimidated towards their tutor, it will refrain them from clearing their doubt or asking questions. Hence, it is important that tutors make sure the students feel like they are in a comfortable…

Creating a comfortable environment in which the student can ask any questions without fear of judgement. There's many tutors that I've gone through myself who don't do this and it became a difficult environment to learn in. Actually teach concepts. This especially applies to maths. Most maths tutors sit there and watch the student work through…

Grayson has been a wonderful influence on Harrison. They work hard the whole time and Grayson is able to meet Harrison’s learning style. Harrison has said he has never liked tutoring as much as he does now.

Inside Wynnum WestTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Sam practised multi-digit multiplication and addition in word problems, and used diagrams to draw nets for prisms and pyramids.

In Year 9, Ethan worked through calculating compound interest with the standard formula and revised index laws.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Grace focused on applying quadratic equations to solve for roots of polynomials and began simple differentiation as it relates to physics motion questions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student often left homework incomplete and relied heavily on prompts during sessions, with the tutor noting, "he prefers I go through questions with him right away instead of attempting them solo."

In Year 11 Physics, difficulty plotting neat graphs online made it hard to interpret results—messy formatting blurred his thinking for both himself and the marker.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student rarely planned written tasks, leading to half-finished paragraphs and unclear ideas in English assignments.

During a senior session, one learner's uncharged laptop meant lost lesson time; forgotten materials and disorganization regularly interrupted progress.

Recent Achievements

In a Wynnum West tutoring session, one high school student began to check his answers independently, moving away from relying on the tutor's prompts. He now double-checks by substituting solutions back into equations before moving forward.

Another older student, who previously hesitated to speak up when confused, is now actively asking questions mid-lesson and clarifying difficult concepts out loud instead of shutting down.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student recently started to do basic arithmetic unaided; after learning a new concept once, she could practise it independently with no need for repeated explanation.

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 Wynnum West State School.
