Beyond just improving grades, the most important thing is building confidence. In my experience, most students struggle with Maths not because they aren't smart enough, but because they are afraid of making mistakes. A tutor needs to create a safe space where it is okay to get the answer wrong while we figure it out. Secondly, a tutor should…

Structure what needs to be taught in a way that is personalised to the strengths of the student. There isn't a one size fits all way of teaching, so i believe the most important things that a tutor can do for a student is learn their strengths and how they learn best, and then adjust the topic in a way that helps them learn in an easier way. I am…

Listening to their needs and their struggles is vital to finding a way for them to enjoy school and the subject. You need to be able to push the student but in a way that helps them to achieve something they're proud of. Pushing them for results is usually only going to increase their frustration and dislike for school/learning. Tutors are in a…

Inside StromloTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Sam worked on proving triangle congruence and similarity using SSS and RHS tests, then calculated scale factors for similar triangles.

In Year 10, Chloe practised forming formulae for advanced chemical compounds by considering ion charges and balanced complex chemical equations from written prompts.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Priya focused on applying the chain, product, and quotient rules to solve derivative problems in calculus and identified stationary points through differentiation.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student struggled with time management during exams, leaving questions unanswered and missing marks—"careless mistakes like missing terms cost points," noted one tutor.

In Year 10 calculus, skipping steps to save time led to confusion about which symbols represented what in derivatives, especially when several formulas appeared at once.

For a Year 7 student, not reading the question thoroughly in algebra resulted in missed objectives and incomplete solutions.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner's spelling issues persisted even after practice: "spelling test result is 40%," requiring more focused revision and daily writing.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Stromlo noted a real shift with one Year 10 student who previously rushed through chemistry equations but now takes the time to identify polyatomic ions and balance equations accurately—she even completed her last set twice as fast without missing any charges.

Another high schooler, usually hesitant to ask for help, started openly questioning tricky steps during maths sessions, then used these clarifications to solve area and volume problems on his own.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who'd struggled with long division began finishing quizzes with over 90% accuracy after consistently practicing new strategies.

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 Evelyn Scott School.
