Modern History Tutor Acton, ACT
The two most important things a tutor can do for a student in my view are (1) adapt to that particular student and (2) encourage and motivate the student along the way. Indeed, without motivation, tutoring is a fairly pointless exercise. My strengths as a student are (1) my ability to make complex concepts, especially in maths, tangible to…

Modern History Tutor Acton, ACT
I think listening to the student is the most important thing a tutor can do. Whether it is simply listening to troubles they are having with a class or with life, listening to the student is very important. As someone who has studied a wide range of topics throughout high school and college, I feel like I have a wide range of expertise.…

Modern History Tutor Acton, ACT
I think it is important that a tutor be able to explain a concept in a way that the student can understand, internalise and remember, while tapping into their passion for the subject, rather than strictly and laboriously forcing them to rote-learn concepts (with the exception of fairly simple ideas like times tables of course) I think my strengths…

Modern History Tutor Lyneham, ACT
I believe it is essential to understand your student, and adapt your teaching and communication style to benefit their learning style, age, personality, and knowledge. It is important for a tutor to really believe in their student, and do all they can to help them excel. I believe I have excellent communication skills as I am able to adapt to each…

Inside BelconnenTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Hayley practised turning mixed numbers into improper fractions and completed mental addition, subtraction, and multiplication with small numbers.

For Year 9, Lewis worked on linear inequalities and straight line graphing, then extended to finding midpoints and distances between points.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Alex focused on applying the chain rule for differentiation and tackled derivatives of exponential functions using worked examples.

Recent Challenges

In Year 7 mathematics, one student hesitated to label sides and angles when tackling triangle problems; as a tutor observed, "he should begin to build the habit of labeling" to make orientation clearer.

In Year 10 algebra, skipping written steps and relying on mental calculations led to missed sign errors—this meant time was spent backtracking rather than progressing.

A senior student in calculus struggled with remembering which formula step came next; speaking each stage aloud exposed errors early but required practice.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student rarely asked questions during sessions, echoing classroom reticence and limiting opportunities for clarification.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Belconnen noticed Jarrah, a high school student, now consistently substitutes the correct values when converting rates and confidently applies the unitary method—something he hesitated with before.

In another session, Jensen made a notable shift by coming prepared with his own question to discuss at the start, showing new initiative instead of waiting passively for guidance.

For younger learners, Evie has moved from relying on her fingers for calculations to recalling multiplication facts more independently; after several sessions using flashcards and games, she answered all her 6 times table questions perfectly without prompting.

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 Kippax Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Southern Cross Early Childhood School.
