Aleksandar
Physics Tutor Chifley, ACT
I believe that the one of the most important things a tutor can do is to help a student truly realise their academic potential, especially since the needs of one student may be overlooked in a classroom setting. It is also important, however, to help inspire confidence in the subject, and hopefully a passion, so that they continue to succeed…

Erin Maria
Physics Tutor Chifley, ACT
A tutor influences a student in many ways. He or she contributes a lot to the personality of a student. The most important thing a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, is to build confidence. And I believe confidence is something that is essential throughout a persons life. It's the confidence that makes one believe that they could do things…

Physics Tutor Hughes, ACT
A tutor, first and foremost, must ensure that a student is improving their grades, that is why people look for tutors in the first place. However, as well as this, a really good tutor can instil a genuine love of a given subject. This will also greatly assist in improving the student's performance. Thus the most important thing a tutor can do is…

Peter
Physics Tutor Hughes, ACT
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…

Hugo
Physics Tutor Cook, ACT
I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is obviously helping them in their studies, both in terms of improving their grades, but also their critical thinking skills for future learning. I think the key with this in a tutoring context, rather than classroom teaching, is catering to a student’s needs, and making sure that…

Inside Australian Capital TerritoryTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
In primary, tutoring often targets core arithmetic—addition, subtraction, times tables, fractions, and building number sense—while also pushing for deeper comprehension, not just rote rules. High school sessions shift to algebraic thinking, graphing, interpreting questions, and developing strong exam strategies. There’s a big emphasis on breaking down word problems, revisiting tricky homework, and test prep for NAPLAN or semester exams, always tailored to what each student finds hardest right now.
Recent Challenges
Some primary students rush through comprehension or maths tasks without fully reading instructions, leading to incomplete or off-target answers. In high school, it’s common for students to have scattered or unclear working, which makes multi-step problems harder to check and fix. Other frequent hurdles include forgetting materials, leaving homework unfinished, or spending revision time catching up on missed basics instead of moving forward—all of which can hold back progress and lead to confusion.
Recent Achievements
Tutors are noticing students becoming more proactive during lessons—regularly checking their own work, spotting errors, and making corrections without being asked. There’s a clear shift toward students verbalising their steps in maths and explaining their reasoning aloud, rather than rushing through problems. Tutors also report that learners are reviewing their test results with more care and taking the initiative to improve, showing greater confidence and ownership of their progress.
