In my opinion, patience can be a critical factor. Students who struggle to solve a particular problem or comprehend a concept may experience negative feelings and potential disappointment. I think listening to what's in a student's mind and being able to encourage is necessary. Secondly, constructing multiple-way approaches based on learning…

The most important thing I can do for a student is fill in the gaps that the teacher can't. Teachers aren't able to modify the way they teach for every individual student, as a tutor I can do that. I am good at helping people understand concepts that are difficult to understand. I love learning and like to share my enthusiasm with other people.…

I would consider the most important thing a tutor could do, would be to teach their student more than they knew to begin with. It's a very simple statement, but it gets to the heart of the matter I feel. All the methods a tutor uses should be geared towards helping the student learn something, and have them understand and remember what they've…

The most important thing a tutor can do is teach students *how* to learn. By helping them develop strategies and habits that build confidence in their own abilities, we give them the tools to succeed independently - beyond our own sessions. It's about long term growth over short term fixes. One of my strengths is clear communication - both in…

In my view, teacher is the most important person for a student after their parents. School level students spend more time with their teachers than with their parents.

Inside ThrosbyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Sam worked on writing improvement by focusing on clear sentence formation and reviewing the course outline.

For Year 9, Emily practiced solving simultaneous equations and completed revision on quadratics using worked examples.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Daniel covered the basics of differentiation—including power rule and first principles—and tackled applications of the sine and cosine rules in trigonometry problems.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8, a student often arrived without their maths notebook or past test papers, which made it difficult to review errors and build on feedback—one tutor noted, "student forgot to take notes for half the lesson."

Meanwhile, in Year 10, another completed homework at 3am and struggled to understand working out until hints were given.

A senior student found remembering key terms under pressure challenging during quizzes and spent triple the target time on tasks due to organization issues.

When mock tests weren't finished beforehand in Year 11, class time was used catching up instead of clarifying sticking points.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Throsby recently noticed a Year 11 student who used to freeze up under test pressure now talking herself through tough problems aloud and checking her answers, which has helped her stay calm and finish practice quizzes with fewer mistakes.

In Year 10 maths, another student who once hesitated to try unfamiliar worded questions now explains each step out loud before solving them and managed to complete an entire non-calculator past paper almost entirely on her own.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student completed all their homework problems for the first time without reminders or extra help.

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