Physics Tutor Harrison, ACT
Being able to teach to a student's pace is a very important skill for a tutor - moving too quickly means the student won't be able to understand the content, while moving too slowly will bore the student, meaning they won't put in an effort to learn. I also believe that the teaching style employed has to fit the student - I am able to assess the…

The most important aspect about tutoring is to be able to assess the ability of the students and tune the tutoring method accordingly. While some students can understand pretty quickly, there are students who require repeated teaching. The ultimate objective is to meet the expectations of students and parents. 1.

The most important thing a tutor can do is to give a student the necessary tools and confidence required to pursue their own learning.

This will be even more effective if the tutor…

Inside O'ConnorTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Evie practised times tables she found challenging and completed class worksheets on fractions, perimeters, and multiplication.

Year 8 student Lara focused on converting between percentages, decimals, and fractions, as well as tackling algebraic equations from her recent assignments.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Owen worked through textbook problems involving probability and index laws (including surds), ensuring a strong grasp of both foundational skills and more advanced topics.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11, one student missed key marks on a maths exam due to "test/exam sitting skills," such as not allocating enough time per question. As a tutor noted, "he solved problems he'd already gotten wrong in the test, but timing cost him."

In Year 8 algebra, skipping written steps led to confusion with negatives and sign errors—this was especially clear when simplifying or rearranging equations.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 learner doubted her answers even when correct; hesitation meant she rarely shared her thinking aloud.

During a challenging worded problem in Year 4, pausing out of overwhelm caused her to lose track of strategy mid-solution.

Recent Achievements

One O'Connor tutor noticed a big shift with Lara in Year 10, who used to freeze on multi-step worded percentage problems but now works through them methodically and even scored 13 out of 14 on her exam.

Owen, just starting Year 11, previously struggled to link experimental results to mathematical analysis in physics; after some focused sessions, he's confidently deriving the data needed for his lab report without extra prompting.

Meanwhile, Mackenzie in Year 7 made a noticeable leap with index laws—despite never learning them before, she picked up each rule quickly and started solving questions independently by the end of the lesson.

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 Dickson Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Turner School.
