Chinese Tutor Red Hill, ACT
The most important thing is to prepare fully for each lesson. I believe that both the student's and the tutor's time are precious. If a session is not well planned and structured, students are likely to walk away confused but unlikely to seek further clarification. Although the teacher might have saved planning time, they have restrained students…

Inside ChisholmTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 8 student Talia focused on mastering simultaneous equations through substitution and spent time factorising and expanding binomials for algebraic fluency.
For Year 10, Lucas worked on solving quadratic equations using both the quadratic formula and by factorising with the null law, also applying these methods to sketch related graphs.
Meanwhile, Year 12 student James reviewed index laws for multiplication and division as well as scientific notation—practicing conversions and calculations with large and small numbers.
Recent Challenges
A Year 11 student had not completed any extra revision before a recent exam, showing that building independent study habits remains an issue.
In another senior case, the lack of advance planning for sessions—such as not identifying which maths topic to focus on—meant lesson time was used less efficiently; "we still need to get better at lesson preparation and planning."
Meanwhile, a Year 8 student consistently submitted homework with significant errors but performed well when tasks were done together, indicating difficulty in transferring learning independently. This gap led to confusion during assessments and missed opportunities for targeted feedback.
Recent Achievements
One Chisholm tutor noticed a Year 10 student who had previously hesitated to ask for clarification now confidently stopped the lesson to say when something didn't make sense, making sure she fully understood simultaneous equations before moving on.
In a recent session with a senior high schooler, writing down each step of exam problems onto cards made it easier for him to remember processes—he started using these notes independently while practicing.
Meanwhile, a younger primary student who once relied heavily on finger counting managed several complicated addition problems in her head and even fixed her own mistakes without prompting.
