I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is create a safe, supportive environment where students feel comfortable, respected, and free from judgment. Learning thrives when students are not afraid to make mistakes or ask questions. My role is to meet each student where they are academically, to listen carefully to their needs, and to…

Legal Studies Tutor Acton, ACT
I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to support them without judgement. Whether that support comes in smaller forms of teaching students concepts they may struggle with or encouraging students to not give up. As a tutor I think my greatest strengths are bringing in a passion and enjoyment for the subjects I tutor and…

A tutor is not there to do a student's homework for them but rather to help them think and problem solve in new ways so that they can complete their work more effectively and be a more independent learner. Thus, a tutor can help by bringing with themselves a large amount of knowledge in the subject area(s) and by having a patient and understanding…

I believe tutor should make learning as simplistic as possible by relating the learning into real life on their applicability and usefulness to appreciate and making learning interesting and enjoyable. As a tutor, I relate philosophical aspects to the subject of teaching and in the process build strong psychology of the life and the subject I…

Legal Studies Tutor Canberra, ACT
I think the most important thing is to inspire students to learn more and improve in their own respective ways, as it is crucial that we teach them methods of how to learn instead of just force-feeding knowledge. Tutors should teach strategies that are easily implementable for a variety of situations so that students can confidently adapt their…

Local Reviews

Our daughter Daisy is in grade four and has been struggling with Maths. She started tutoring with Kathleen only three weeks ago and we are already seeing growth in her confidence with maths. Daisy looks forward to her sessions with Kathleen and is enjoying practicing between sessions. We are excited to witness Daisy's confidence in math develop over the coming months. Thank you, Kathleen, for the way you have developed a trusted relationship with Daisy over these first weeks of tutoring. We appreciate you and what you are teaching Daisy :)

Inside ChifleyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Michael focused on simplifying fractions and ratios by finding common factors, along with using BODMAS to work through the correct order of operations.

In Year 8, Sarah practised graphing linear equations from both formulas and plotted points, then moved on to finding gradients directly from equations and graphs.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Lucas tackled solving monic and non-monic quadratic equations as well as identifying the turning point of a parabola and representing these on graphs.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 algebra, most of the homework was done incorrectly, but when done in person he did them flawlessly, highlighting a reliance on tutor presence rather than independent practice.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student tackling parabolas needed reminders for key properties and often mixed up positive and negative numbers, which slowed progress during graphing exercises.

For a Year 4 learner, unfinished or incorrect homework—especially with subtraction—meant relearning basics each session instead of building on past work.

In senior trigonometry, one student repeatedly tried to apply unrelated formulas, which led to confusion and wasted revision time.

Recent Achievements

One Chifley tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 9 student who, after weeks of hesitating to ask for help, finally started speaking up whenever stuck—making it much easier to tackle challenging algebra problems together.

In Year 10 maths, another student who previously struggled with monic quadratics began solving them accurately without prompts and even found the axis of symmetry independently during their session.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who used to rely on finger counting managed to finish a set of complicated addition questions entirely from memory, working under a timer and correcting mistakes on their 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 Woden Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Marist College Canberra.
