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…

Tutor Acton, ACT
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…

Tutor Canberra, ACT
I understand that blindly teaching could not help students in understanding, it is necessary to understand or feel their struggles too. As students could be shy or embarrassed to ask questions and the learning progress would stop by there, thus a tutor should show more care and patience to students. Especially for math, it is also important to…

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…

Tutor Red Hill, ACT
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…

I think the most important thing is to inspire students to learn more and improve in their own respective ways, as it is crucial that we teach them methods of how to learn instead of just force-feeding knowledge. Tutors should teach strategies that are easily implementable for a variety of situations so that students can confidently adapt their…

Local Reviews

We recently started tuition with Edison, and I couldn't be happier with how things are going. Edison has been making a big difference, not just in terms of Math skills, but in my son's motivation and confidence. They've built a great rapport and Edison has been showing his solid background in the subject, but more importantly, he is demonstrating a natural ability to make learning feel approachable and enjoyable. If you're looking for someone who not only knows Maths but also knows how to connect with a student, Edison is an absolute gem. We're very happy we found him!

Inside WrightTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 Sam focused on revising long division and practising the addition and subtraction of fractions, also touching on converting decimals to percentages using number line activities.

Year 10 Vamsi worked through probability concepts such as sample space and independence, then applied skills in interpreting exam results and tackling binomial distribution problems with guided exercises.

For Year 11 Alan, lessons concentrated on mastering calculus topics including the chain rule, product rule, quotient rule for derivatives, and applying these to find stationary points using past exam-style questions.

Recent Challenges

When facing lengthy calculus problems, a Year 11 student often skipped steps and panicked over multiple formulas—"he jumped ahead or missed symbols in derivatives," a tutor observed.

In exams, another senior student left questions blank and struggled to manage time effectively, losing marks not for lack of knowledge but from incomplete answers.

A Year 7 learner sometimes misread instructions in algebra or didn't fully answer long division questions.

For one Year 4 writer, spelling errors persisted despite good ideas; the challenge lay in not checking work thoroughly before moving on. This led to frustration when reviewing results.

Recent Achievements

A Wright tutor noticed one high school student who used to skip over tough calculus questions is now listing all relevant formulas and breaking down each step before answering—he even spotted his own mistakes from a recent exam, which he hadn't done previously.

Another Year 10 student, after struggling with polyatomic ions in chemistry, now quickly identifies their charges and completes equation balancing tasks at a faster pace than before.

Meanwhile, in primary years, Sam has moved from confusion about long division to scoring 97% on multiplication quizzes and independently working through BODMAS calculations without prompting.

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 Charles Weston School.
