I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is obviously helping them in their studies, both in terms of improving their grades, but also their critical thinking skills for future learning. I think the key with this in a tutoring context, rather than classroom teaching, is catering to a student’s needs, and making sure that…

Engineering Studies Tutor Hughes, ACT
Through my time at university, I have found the ability to be patient is what separates my current tutors apart. A willingness to stop and answer questions, that some may be too scared to ask, has certainly improved my learning opportunities. The notion of ‘no stupid questions’ in my Power Electronics course this semester has been a great…

Make his fear of any particular topic or subject disappear and make his weak areas strong. No student is weak, it's just the way the teacher is teaching him which is making him not understand something. A teacher can build a solid base of knowledge for any student for his/her upcoming challenges. I'm patient, tolerant, and flexible. Can adapt to…

Beyond just improving grades, the most important thing is building confidence. In my experience, most students struggle with Maths not because they aren't smart enough, but because they are afraid of making mistakes. A tutor needs to create a safe space where it is okay to get the answer wrong while we figure it out. Secondly, a tutor should…

In my opinion, the most importing things that a tutor can do is to make the students feel engaged and welcomed. In particular, learning should be a joyful experience for students instead of a burden. This means the student not only perform the tasks which the tutor instruct them to, but to be more open and curious to ask any questions outside the…

I believe that patience is definitely a major aspect of tutoring. There is nothing worse than being expected to understand something and being unable to go back and revisit it, simply because the tutor is impatient or not understanding/empathetic enough. Another important aspect I would say would have to be teaching slowly where needed and not…

Inside ActonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Zoe focused on converting between decimals, fractions, and percentages using diagrams for visual support, and practised adding and subtracting decimals.

In Year 8, Sam tackled simplifying fractions as well as identifying equivalent fractions through targeted exercises.

For Year 10, Emily completed a topic test covering algebraic equations—particularly those involving multiplication and division—and then reviewed how to solve linear equations step by step.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student struggled with exam planning, as he needed to write a bit quicker in order to make sure he can complete the exam—and also properly pace himself during the exam and not spend too long on a confusing question.

In Year 8 English, skipping over assignment instructions meant one student missed key requirements and jumped ahead, leading to confusion about what was actually expected.

For a Year 6 maths learner, foundational times tables knowledge remained shaky; this slowed her down even on simple problems.

After missing class content, a senior student felt lost in algebra until revisiting basics restored some confidence.

Recent Achievements

One Acton tutor noticed a Year 10 student now regularly back-checks her maths, which has led to fewer careless mistakes—a big shift from earlier sessions when she'd rush through problems.

A high school English student recently began giving creative writing questions a proper go rather than hesitating; he's started catching repetitive sentence starters on his own after targeted feedback.

Meanwhile, a younger student who was initially quiet now tells the tutor exactly what's confusing during lessons and asks for help right away instead of guessing.

In one session, she tackled tricky decimal operations after just a brief 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 Kingston Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Yarralumla Primary School.
