I feel that a tutor can basically change a student's perception to a particular subject. A tutor has the power to build the foundations of a subject in a simplified and innovative way such that it is comprehended easily by the students. When it comes to teaching new concepts, I seldom go by the book. I think it is more important to give a…

Biology Tutor Braddon, ACT
I think the most important things a tutor can do is to make the content understandable rather than just helping to memorise it. But also to normalise mistakes and to assert the importance of educated guessing. Any student can learn faster by giving something a go rather than waiting until they are certain. I believe I can explain and break down…

Inside BruceTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Ethan worked through NAPLAN past paper questions 1–25 and reviewed key concepts on circumference basics.

Year 11 student Priya focused on mastering the laws of indices and revised surds, with some work on rationalising denominators using step-by-step examples.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Daniel practiced applying differentiation to exam-style questions and tackled problems involving tangents and normals to curves.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student left multiple homework sets unfinished in algebra and fractions ("Homework - 9A, 9B, 9C - All Questions"), making it harder to reinforce new skills.

In VCE Methods, one student tackled complex differentiation but didn't complete assigned past exam papers—notes read: "Needs to complete the 2009 Paper for Homework."

Another in Year 11 focused revision on familiar problems, shying away from application questions that would boost understanding.

As a tutor observed about a senior: "Need to get more organised then will be able to succeed"—misplaced notes and incomplete practice meant extra time spent catching up before tests.

Recent Achievements

A Bruce tutor noticed a big change in one Year 10 student who previously hesitated to use her calculator and often guessed, but now double-checks her answers confidently during sessions.

In Year 11 maths, a student who used to skip tough surds questions is now attempting them without prompting—last week, he even set his own goal of full marks for the next exam.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who would only answer with help is starting to tackle basic problems independently and asks follow-up questions when unsure. This time, he finished all ten problems on his own.

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 Belconnen Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like University of Canberra Senior Secondary College Lake Ginninderra.
