Geography Tutor Downer, ACT
I believe it is essential to understand your student, and adapt your teaching and communication style to benefit their learning style, age, personality, and knowledge. It is important for a tutor to really believe in their student, and do all they can to help them excel. I believe I have excellent communication skills as I am able to adapt to each…

Geography Tutor Phillip, ACT
A tutor influences a student in many ways. He or she contributes a lot to the personality of a student. The most important thing a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, is to build confidence. And I believe confidence is something that is essential throughout a persons life. It's the confidence that makes one believe that they could do things…

Inside PialligoTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Josh worked on reading comprehension and vocabulary using short texts, followed by writing brief summaries.

In Year 8, Ari tackled statistics topics including mean, median, mode, and constructing box-and-whisker plots, along with exercises on theoretical probability.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Noah focused on developing cohesive paragraphs in English—practicing topic sentences and concluding statements—while also reading and answering comprehension questions for 'The Boy in the Striped Pajamas.'

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 English, a student left homework incomplete and attempted only one paragraph after feeling unsure about the writing prompt; he felt bad as he did not quite get the task.

For a Year 11 English essay, deleted drafts and reluctance to share work meant feedback wasn't used before submission, resulting in missed editing opportunities.

In Year 7 Mathematics, skipping written steps—especially with algebra—made it harder to spot errors and slowed progress during tests.

A Year 9 student often forgot to bring homework or needed reminders to present work more neatly, especially for graphing tasks.

Missed planning led to last-minute changes or lost confidence under pressure.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Pialligo noticed one high school student, previously hesitant to share his struggles, now openly asking questions about essay structure and proactively emailing materials for feedback—an important shift from passive learning.

Another secondary student, who found graphic linear equations daunting, made progress by trying multiple solution strategies and is now independently tackling practice tests with step-by-step plans.

Among younger students, a Year 3 learner who used to avoid grammar tasks has begun correcting most errors himself after a targeted editing exercise, finishing the latest worksheet with only minimal hints needed.

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 Kingston Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Campbell Primary School.
