Ysabel
Modern History Tutor Pearce, ACT
I understand the struggles of high school students - the anxiety of asking questions and the lack motivation to learn. A tutor should be able to create a safe space for communication to tackle problems and provide useful solutions to such issues. Also, an important characteristic a tutor should have is to help motivate students with a positive…

Inside FisherTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 5 student Christian focused on mastering long division and practiced applying function notation to simple algebra problems.
For Year 9, Sophia tackled quadratic equations without a calculator and worked through finding the equation of a parabola given three points using simultaneous equations.
Meanwhile, Year 10 student Christian concentrated on trigonometry, specifically using sine rules for general triangles and solving right-angled triangle problems involving unknown sides and angles.
Recent Challenges
A Year 10 student repeatedly arrived without their maths notes, making it difficult to refer back to previous work or clarify points in sessions; as a tutor noted, "No book again today. First part of problem was done in class and the original copy of this work was unavailable."
In Year 8 algebra, another student struggled with keeping their written solutions tidy and consistent—when steps weren't spaced out clearly, errors crept in during multi-step problems.
Meanwhile, a Year 4 student hesitated to answer questions without immediate approval, which slowed her progress on number line tasks and made independent practice harder.
Recent Achievements
A Fisher tutor recently noticed a high school student who'd struggled with algebra now confidently talks through problems out loud and asks clarifying questions, instead of staying quiet when stuck.
Another high schooler made a clear leap in narrative writing—his paragraphs are more focused on the story's theme, and he's begun using emotive language effectively after previously writing quite flatly.
In primary sessions, one Year 4 student who used to hesitate with multiplication now solves these problems quickly and even explains her steps 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 Woden Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Mount Stromlo High School.
