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…

Tutor Yarralumla, ACT
I consider the transference of inspiration to the student to be the most important and fulfilling thing a tutor can achieve. From inspiration births a work ethic, an attitude and an independence within the student that carries through their whole life. I believe that as an individual, you are your own CEO, CMO, CFO etc. As such, by teaching the…

Teach them how to think independently, and provide them with a way of thinking efficiently. Math is not a discipline in which someone does enough problems and can solve all the problems, but a discipline that requires people to constantly think about questions. So if one only knows to let students do lots of problems then he might not be a good…

The most important thing is to prepare fully for each lesson. I believe that both the student's and the tutor's time are precious. If a session is not well planned and structured, students are likely to walk away confused but unlikely to seek further clarification. Although the teacher might have saved planning time, they have restrained students…

Local Reviews

Dineth told us that when he was a boy he aspired to be a teacher at a university, and I believe him. He is respectful, engaging and provides very clear explanations. He has a knack for working out how the student thinks and tailoring his reasoning appropriately. Our son learned a great deal from Dineth about maths and also about how to be a good student.

Inside StirlingTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Christian worked on **solving simultaneous equations using the elimination method** and practiced finding the area of a circle and parallelogram, as well as calculating volumes for cylinders and prisms.

In Year 10, Sophia focused on **writing and balancing chemical equations—including net ionic forms**—and learned to name polyatomic ions while exploring solubility concepts.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Alex applied **molar ratios from balanced chemical equations to calculate mass**, reviewed scientific notation and significant figures in chemistry calculations, and reflected on quiz performance to identify next steps.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student repeatedly left their maths notes at school, making it hard to review covered concepts or check prior feedback before new sessions ("No book again today. First part of problem was done in class and the original copy of this work was unavailable").

In Year 11, another relied on a calculator for simple multiplication and square numbers during test prep, slowing down more complex problem-solving.

A Year 8 student's algebra work showed cramped formatting, which made multi-step equations harder to follow.

For one Year 4 learner, not listening fully to explanations led to repeated confusion with area problems.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Stirling noticed Qais, a high schooler, moving from hesitantly working through chemistry equations to quickly applying his understanding by tackling extra practice questions and actively asking for help whenever stuck.

Another win came from a senior student who used to overlook details in maths proofs but now independently spots and corrects gaps before finalising her answers.

In Year 5, Samuel—who struggled with long division earlier this term—recently completed a multiplication tables quiz with 97% accuracy and then solved all his long division problems without needing any hints.

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 St John Vianney's Primary School.
