I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to build their confidence, adapt to their learning style, and create a supportive environment where they feel comfortable asking questions. A tutor should not only help students understand the material but also teach them how to approach problems independently, developing…

One of the most important things for me would be the tutor's ability to listen and understand a student's query patiently, as it influences how the same content can be tailored differently for a better understanding of the individual. Also, the ability to adequately motivate a topic helps students develop a higher interest and enjoy what they…

In my perspective mathematics is all about practice, understanding concepts and master them. Tutor's job is to make students understand the concepts but at the same time, they should not spoon feed them by constraining them to certain important questions only! Student should be able to do all types of questions and apply the concepts in daily life…

Without empathy, the student will not feel like the tutor understands their struggles and is truly trying to help them. Apart from showing them that understanding and kindly communicating…

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.

The tutor must be able to eliminate every question or doubt a student has on a subject or concept and enable the student to comprehend the information not just for scoring grades, but, for understanding and using the information in any scenario which requires it.

The most important thing a tutor can do is create an environment in which the student feels comfortable asking questions and encouraging them to work hard and commit to learning.

As a tutor, I believe that the most important thing I can bring to a student is a different perspective on the subject matter they are studying. While teachers and textbooks can be great resources, they often present the material in a standardized and one-size-fits-all way that may not resonate with every student. By providing a different voice…

Inside GarranTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Jamie worked on simplifying fractions and ratios, focusing on finding common factors and dividing across, and also practiced BODMAS for the correct order of operations.

In Year 10, Lily reviewed factorising and expanding quadratics, then explored graphing parabolas using Desmos to visualise their shapes.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Arjun continued differentiation techniques, including implicit differentiation and applying these skills to basic kinematics problems.

Recent Challenges

Time management was a significant challenge during exams for the Year 11 student; she spent too much effort on questions that she felt less confident in, which left less time for other sections.

In Year 9 algebra, skipping steps during equation solving hid sign errors and made it harder to spot where things went wrong.

A Year 6 student's homework was often incomplete or mostly incorrect but improved when completed with guidance. Distraction and talking sometimes interrupted focus during lessons, and in these moments, important methods were mixed up or forgotten under pressure.

Recent Achievements

One Garran tutor noticed a Year 9 student who had previously hesitated to attempt more challenging quadratics now choosing to work through them independently, even rearranging formulas and solving for unknowns without prompting.

In a senior session, another high schooler who once mixed up the steps in graphing parabolas was able to clearly plot graphs and accurately label all coordinates after some targeted practice.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student—who used to count on their fingers for every addition—recently completed several complex sums mentally and corrected their own mistakes without being asked.

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 Garran Primary School.
