Modern History Tutor Mawson, 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…

I think the most important things a tutor can do for a student is build their confidence and give them tools to succeed. I think I am kind and passionate, and have an ability to connect with students and adapt my tutoring to what they individually…

Helping them understand the subject (as opposed to simply giving the answer and leaving no way for them to work their own way to it) (very) recent experience with doing these subjects at school, and apparently I'm good with kids, but it has been a while since I have had to…

Inside JerrabomberraTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Josh completed an English and Maths assessment covering reading comprehension and basic numeracy, along with a mini NAPLAN-style maths test.

In Year 8, Ari focused on statistics topics such as mean, median, mode, and creating box-and-whisker plots, then moved on to pie graphs and theoretical probability using real-world data examples.

Meanwhile, Noah in Year 9 practised analysing war poetry for literary techniques and essay planning before switching to algebra work on surds and indices problems.

Recent Challenges

Several students across Years 7–12 are not consistently completing homework, which impacts their ability to consolidate key skills—one Year 10 student "did not complete the homework" for an English writing task and felt discouraged, only managing one paragraph.

In Year 8 mathematics, forgetting materials and unfinished assigned questions meant missed opportunities for vital practice with quadratic equations.

Messy or incomplete written work was noted in Year 7 statistics: "Ari needs to be neater in his presentation of work," as unclear steps made it harder to find outliers.

These habits left gaps that reappeared when tackling new or more complex tasks.

Recent Achievements

One Jerrabomberra tutoring session saw a Year 10 student who previously found linear equations confusing work through his whole test, using step-by-step strategies for graphing and elimination—he finished feeling much more capable and even requested extra practice questions before his next exam.

In Year 8 English, a student who used to hesitate with essay planning has begun asking specific questions about structure and now sends drafts for feedback without prompting, showing clear initiative.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner tackled grammar tasks he once avoided and corrected most errors himself during an editing exercise.

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 Public School.
