Through my time at university, I have found the ability to be patient is what separates my current tutors apart. A willingness to stop and answer questions, that some may be too scared to ask, has certainly improved my learning opportunities. The notion of ‘no stupid questions’ in my Power Electronics course this semester has been a great…

Science Tutor Wanniassa, ACT
Provide a stable and consistent source of support in their education, while simultaneously being a person they are under no pressure to impress. Since tutors have no influence over their lives outside of tutoring, students often feel comfortable asking us questions they would feel embarrassed or "dumb" for asking a parent or teacher. Tutors…

Allowing my tutees to make mistakes and learn from them, results in better mathematical thinkers. I think that maths is best learned through a trial and error of methods, to find the best one. While this is an individual pursuit, guidance to understanding concepts and learning why or why not certain methods work, is key. Instead of saying "this…

A tutor must find out about a student's personal learning requirements, such as where and why they struggle with concepts, and then figure out how best the student learns, then teach the student according to their own needs, that they may gain fluency in the particular academic area.

A tutor can help the student overcome the fear of not asking questions as there are no "dumb" questions.

A tutor should also motivate the students and serve as a guiding light to their students in studies and for the future. I have high interpersonal…

Local Reviews

Danielle has been excellent: very patient and understanding and explains things well.
Catherine

Inside WaramangaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Christian focused on multiplication and algorithms, working through step-by-step examples to strengthen his understanding.

In Year 8, Sophia practised solving quadratic equations without a calculator and explored functions by substituting values into expressions.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Christian tackled finding the equation of a parabola that passes through three given points using simultaneous equations and applied the quadratic formula during exam revision.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student frequently left maths notes at school, which made it difficult to reference past lessons or bring completed work to tutoring. As one tutor noted, "No book again today," meaning parts of worded and graphical problems were missing for review.

In Year 9, messy or cramped working in trigonometry led to confusion about matching angles and sides in the sine rule—there was little space left for substitutions, making errors harder to spot.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student lost concentration towards the end of multiplication drills; this meant forgotten steps when revisiting times tables without regular practice at home.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Waramanga noticed a big shift with one Year 10 student: after weeks of struggling to set out working clearly, he's now formatting his maths solutions step-by-step and even made his own "cheat sheet" for future problems.

In a recent high school session, another student who used to guess at answers began openly asking clarifying questions about trig ratios—he followed along explanations and pushed himself to understand how and when to use each function.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 learner who once hesitated during narrative writing is now talking through her ideas confidently while drafting introductions.

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 Arawang Primary School.
