I would consider the most important thing a tutor could do, would be to teach their student more than they knew to begin with.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is to improve a student's confidence with the subject they are tutoring. Once a student has the confidence that they can in fact figure it out they will be far more willing to put in the hard work to improve in the subject. A tutor must encourage their students to ask as many questions as they'd like…

Inside NgunnawalTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Eliza worked on telling time using the minute and hour hands, as well as distinguishing between am and pm.

Year 7 student Noah revised linear equations and focused on graphing inequalities while preparing for a test.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Lucas tackled compound interest calculations and explored applications in real-world financial scenarios.

Recent Challenges

Too much reliance on a calculator during fraction and algebra work—"the more he can guestimate the answer the more likely he can eliminate any extreme errors," as noted after test prep. This habit made it harder to spot mistakes early.

In Year 3, inconsistent recall of times tables meant that basic addition and subtraction with larger numbers took extra time; a tutor observed, "gets in her own way, it's too hard even though it's the same method."

For one senior student, incomplete homework reduced confidence before assessments, leading to missed opportunities for targeted feedback.

Recent Achievements

A Ngunnawal tutor recently noticed a Year 10 student who had been struggling with tax brackets finally start to grasp converting annual figures into weekly amounts—she asked clarifying questions and corrected herself without prompting.

In another session, a high schooler who used to rush through subtraction is now consistently slowing down and double-checking her answers, catching mistakes before the tutor points them out.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student who found telling time difficult can now plot times on an analogue clock and explain them back, even asking for extra practice sheets to take home after lessons.

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 Gungahlin Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St John Paul II College.
