The most important thing a chemistry tutor can do for a student is not only boost their confidence in a subject, but also their enthusiasm for the subject. Giving students who are bored with the content as they find it too easy more difficult problems peaks their interest, as I have seen in the past. Students who are struggling and as a result…

I feel that a chemistry 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…

As I said before, the most important things a chemistry tutor can do for a student is first of all get them excited about education or going to school or a specific subject, whatever their situation may be, as well as give them the tools, independence and knowledge to be able to achieve what they want out of school. I believe I am well-versed in a…

For example, one of my students in the past…

I believe the most important thing a chemistry tutor can do for a student is to develop their ability to learn and think independently.

Teaching students how to learn not only helps them to do well in their…

I think the most important things a chemistry 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.

In my perspective mathematics is all about practice, understanding concepts and master them. Tutor's job is to make students understand the concepts but at the same time, they should not spoon feed them by constraining them to certain important questions only! Student should be able to do all types of questions and apply the concepts in daily life…

Inside ReidTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student James worked on analysing the domain of complex functions and reviewed his homework for linear equations, clarifying any misconceptions.

For Year 8, Emma focused on expanding brackets and solving linear systems of equations, including visualising binomials using geometric representations.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student revised fractions with exponents and practiced solving linear systems of equations, building confidence through targeted practice questions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student hesitated when translating worded problems into equations in Maths Methods, often needing reassurance before starting—"once prompted, he finished the question," a tutor observed.

In Year 10, test planning and time management emerged as an obstacle: timing each question wasn't tracked, so slower sections remained hidden until revision.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student left key exercises unfinished between lessons, meaning fewer questions could be brought up for feedback during tutoring. This led to missed opportunities for targeted explanation and deeper understanding in algebraic methods.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Reid noticed Juan, a high school student, returning to earlier algebra content and quickly recalling everything after previous struggles with certain questions—this time he could answer them independently without hesitation.

Thea, also in high school, now openly admits when she doesn't understand a concept rather than staying quiet; she's begun drawing on prior lessons to solve new problems and can now expand equations without any help.

In primary sessions, one student who previously mixed up improper fractions now confidently converts them into whole numbers during practice questions.

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 Canberra Grammar School - Northside Infants Campus.
