The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them reach their full potential. I believe that each student has an individual learning style, and a tutor's role is to understand their students and tailor tutoring sessions around this idea to help their comprehension of a particular topic and make learning a more exciting…

I think communication with your student is important. As a tutor, you can not force a student to do things your way, so it's important to be able to compromise and help them with what they think is important so they don't lose interest in a subject, whether it is a struggling student or one that wants to excel. By involving them in the process you…

The most important things a tutor could do for a tutor is to not do their work for them but show them how to do it. Through different methods and picking up on certain factors of equations, etc. I believe my strengths are that I am quite relatable and I can explain things in simpler terms rather than spitting textbook facts at the…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student are to build their confidence, develop their problem-solving skills, and foster a genuine understanding of the subject. While improving grades is often a key goal, I believe true learning happens when a student feels empowered to think critically and tackle challenges independently. One of my…

There are a couple of things which I think a tutor can do for their students (1) Understand their way of thinking and interact in a way which is more familiar to them. A tutor must have different ways to put across the same concept to different students. A single way may not fit everyone. (2) A tutor must be available for the students at any…

Amal is great. She clearly knows and understands Maths extensively and has a nice relaxed way in teaching our daughter.

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.
