Psychology Tutor Fadden, ACT
Help them overcome challenges, sometimes if something makes no sense it needs to be explained in a different way. A tutor can understand the personal needs of the child as well as understanding the material and use this to approach learning in a way which will be most helpful for the student. I also study psychology so in that we do learn about…

Inside EnvironaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Noah focused on quadratic equations, using the quadratic formula and graphing to solve problems, and also worked through sequences and series questions.

For Year 8, Ari reviewed statistics topics including boxplots, dot plots, and probability—especially interpreting data displays and describing chance.

Meanwhile, Josh in Year 3 practiced reading comprehension by answering questions about short texts and identifying unfamiliar vocabulary, then completed a mini NAPLAN-style maths quiz covering number patterns.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student left homework unfinished in both algebra and English, feeling "bad" after not understanding the task—he attempted only one paragraph.

In a senior English session, deleting an entire essay draft after a teacher's late feedback left another student reluctant to share further work or respond to follow-up emails; editing was skipped as a result.

A Year 8 maths learner often forgot homework and struggled to keep classwork up-to-date, with messy written solutions noted for statistics tasks ("needs to be neater in his presentation of work").

Independent revision habits remain weak ahead of exams, especially in Years 10–12.

Recent Achievements

One Environa tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 9 student who, after struggling with graphic linear equations, worked through his whole test and could now solve them by elimination and substitution without giving up at the first hurdle.

A Year 11 student, previously hesitant to ask questions about essay structure, took real initiative—emailing assignment materials ahead of time and actively seeking advice on thesis statements and referencing for an upcoming English exam.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student began showing new independence by attempting all his maths homework before lessons and even tackled extra "describing chance" probability tasks that weren't assigned.

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 Queanbeyan-Palerang Library Service—or at your child's school (with permission), like Jerrabomberra High School.
