The most important things a tutor can do for a student are to build their confidence, develop their problem-solving skills, and foster a genuine understanding of the subject. While improving grades is often a key goal, I believe true learning happens when a student feels empowered to think critically and tackle challenges independently. One of my…

I think the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to be honest about the amount of time and effort it will take to improve and to be able to meet the student where he or she is. I always make sure to understand how the student is processing the information before moving on. The most important thing is that we move at the student's…

Local Reviews

William is fantastic for our daughter. He has already taught her a lot (filling in some gaps that she had missed as well as preparing her for exams) and she is feeling very positive about the progress they have made. Will is very patient with her but also confident enough to help her. Couldn't be happier.
Beth

Inside GungahlinTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Josh focused on applying the sine and cosine rule to solve non-right-angled triangle problems, then practised using bearings in trigonometry contexts.

Year 11 student Mia worked through differentiation basics, tackling both the power rule and first principles for finding derivatives with step-by-step examples.

For Year 12, Liam covered projectile motion by analysing trajectories and initial velocities, and also explored momentum conservation during collisions using diagrams to clarify each scenario.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student struggled to bring their maths notebook and repeatedly left homework incomplete; "past test papers have been said to be damaged and cannot be brought back," which made it difficult to review past mistakes or build on previous learning.

In Year 10, one student finished their homework at 3am and admitted not understanding the working until prompted with hints, highlighting weak study routines and late-night cramming.

Another senior student forgot to take notes for half the lesson, missing important steps—this left gaps that resurfaced during revision.

During a timed quiz in Year 9, time management issues led to a 30-minute task dragging out for an hour, leaving less room for content practice.

Recent Achievements

In Gungahlin, a Year 11 student who used to freeze up under timed conditions began using positive self-talk and now finishes on-the-spot questions more quickly during test prep.

Another high schooler, after struggling with the fundamentals of circular motion last term, was able to clearly explain the topic back to the tutor and confidently solve B-level problems without hesitation.

A younger student who had been hesitant to check their answers independently now routinely backchecks their work when unsure—something they'd avoided before—and guided the tutor through several practice questions step by step.

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 Gungahlin Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Gungahlin College.
