Economics Tutor Braddon, ACT
Providing adequate feedback is the most important trait of a tutor. A tutor must identify key areas of weakness especially for maths. They must also show a method that can be replicated to produce the best results. I am very good at using visual aids to demonstrate new concepts to the students. I am great at boosting the student's confidence as I…

I think the most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is be supportive and caring of a student's particular needs or circumstances.

Often, more so than rigorous academic…

I believe the most important thing a 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 exams, but…

Inside WatsonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Mia worked on converting between units of measurement (including kilometres, metres, and hectares) and practiced division alongside introducing index notation.

In Year 9, Ethan focused on applying index laws for multiplication and division of powers with the same base, as well as simplifying expressions using these rules.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Alex revised conditional probability with Venn diagrams and tree diagrams, practicing how to calculate probabilities of combined events and complementary outcomes.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often relied heavily on notes and formula sheets when solving algebra problems, rarely writing out full working—"Needs to write working out down," as one tutor observed. This habit led to confusion between addition and multiplication in expressions like 3x versus 3 + x, causing repeated errors.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student frequently left multiplication table homework incomplete or forgot books at school; only half of assigned work was submitted for several weeks. As a result, important foundational skills remained patchy and test revision sessions were spent relearning basics instead of consolidating new material.

Recent Achievements

One Watson tutor noticed a big change in a Year 10 student who had previously needed reminders for algebraic expansion—this week, after just one prompt, he expanded several bracketed expressions almost independently.

A high school student working on probability was able to use a double table effectively to solve intersection problems without any help, showing new self-reliance compared to past sessions.

In primary years, another student who once hesitated to work alone completed all multiplication and subtraction problems with only minimal assistance and even started tackling simple fractions on her 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 Dickson Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Majura Primary School.
