I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to build their confidence and foster a positive attitude toward learning. One of my key strengths as a tutor is my ability to explain complex concepts in a clear and relatable way. With years of experience teaching undergraduate engineering students and mentoring research projects,…

I think tutoring is so much more than just helping a student improve their maths or science skills. It’s about building up motivation and self-confidence, and teaching students valuable skills they can apply to their learning later in life. For example: identifying what they are struggling to understand, asking questions confidently, and coming…

A tutor, first and foremost, must ensure that a student is improving their grades, that is why people look for tutors in the first place. However, as well as this, a really good tutor can instil a genuine love of a given subject. This will also greatly assist in improving the student's performance. Thus the most important thing a tutor can do is…

I believe a tutor must have an enthusiastic attitude when they teach, and hopefully inspire the student to enjoy what they’re learning, and inspire them to want to learn more. To make a student enjoy what they learn, as well as make them learn, as a tutor I think it’s important to give encouragement but also ignite the student’s ambition by…

Provide a stable and consistent source of support in their education, while simultaneously being a person they are under no pressure to impress. Since tutors have no influence over their lives outside of tutoring, students often feel comfortable asking us questions they would feel embarrassed or "dumb" for asking a parent or teacher. Tutors…

I believe the way a concept is framed is one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student. My Year 11 and 12 Maths Teacher, Mr Rocks, would always explain to our class how different people's brains work in different ways (e.g. geometrically, analytically) so while one concept might make a lot of sense to the tutor/teacher, the way…

A tutor , according to me should be available to the student at all times. They have to respond to the student's enquiries without much lag. Additionally, teachers have to be truly dedicated especially in terms of correction of homework and assignments. I have had students giving me feedback like I am really patient in clarifying the concepts.…

Listening to their needs and their struggles is vital to finding a way for them to enjoy school and the subject. You need to be able to push the student but in a way that helps them to achieve something they're proud of. Pushing them for results is usually only going to increase their frustration and dislike for school/learning. Tutors are in a…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to develop their ability to learn and think independently. One of my favourite quotes is "If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. If you teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime." Teaching students how to learn not only helps them to do well in their exams, but…

Being a recent high school graduate and current university student I understand…

Inside JerrabomberraTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Ari focused on statistics by practicing mean, median, mode, and range calculations as well as creating box-and-whisker plots and interpreting outliers.

In Year 9, Noah worked through essay planning for English, including developing thesis statements and topic sentences for an analytical essay on Tim O'Brien's novel 'The Things They Carried', and also practiced writing vignettes inspired by the text.

For Year 3, Josh completed basic addition exercises using number lines and jump counting, then moved to addition with counters to reinforce mental arithmetic strategies.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 English, one student deleted an entire essay after a teacher requested a new format but did not respond to feedback emails or submit drafts for review—this reluctance to share work limited editing opportunities before the extended due date.

A Year 9 student "forgot to bring his homework" for two consecutive lessons, meaning time was lost revisiting previous tasks rather than progressing with new content.

In primary maths, a Year 4 student's written work remained messy and steps were skipped when solving problems involving area and perimeter; as one tutor observed, "he needs to be neater in his presentation of work."

Recent Achievements

One Jerrabomberra tutor noticed a Year 11 student who previously struggled with essay structure now taking the initiative to email their thesis drafts and questions between lessons, leading to much clearer arguments in their writing.

In Year 8 maths, another student, after hesitating to ask for help before, has started openly discussing confusing problems—he's now working through linear equations step by step rather than skipping tricky parts.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who once rushed reading tasks is now pausing to make predictions about story outcomes before moving on, showing more thoughtful engagement with texts.

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 Jerrabomberra High School.
