Patience and an emphatic approach to teaching are essential for a tutor. Students may lack confidence, be overwhelmed with material, and be stressed. Therefore, it's important to be considerate and patient. This approach can also help understand students' misconceptions and errors by being patient, and listening to students can reveal what areas…

Modern History Tutor Curtin, ACT
Listening to their needs and their struggles is vital to finding a way for them to enjoy school and the subject. You need to be able to push the student but in a way that helps them to achieve something they're proud of. Pushing them for results is usually only going to increase their frustration and dislike for school/learning. Tutors are in a…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to make the student interested in whatever subject they are learning. The best way to learn anything is to show genuine interest in that topic. Tutors should not only assist students in specific areas, they should also engage with the student in a manner that makes the student interested in…

I believe the two most important things a tutor can do for a student are to aid them in the learning gaps they may have and to help them in building a positive relationship with academics. It is common that if students may have a negative relationship with subjects they are not very confident in. Building confidence in these subjects is one of the…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to support them without judgement. Whether that support comes in smaller forms of teaching students concepts they may struggle with or encouraging students to not give up. As a tutor I think my greatest strengths are bringing in a passion and enjoyment for the subjects I tutor and…

Inside BraddonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Rhys worked on calculating the surface area and volume of 3D shapes, then started addressing gaps in fraction skills using electronic flashcards.

In Year 8, Lara focused on solving algebraic equations and simplifying expressions by collecting like terms.

For Year 9, Amity practiced applying ratios to real-world problems and converting between map distances using scale, reinforcing her understanding with practical examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student sometimes forgot to memorise formulae and, as noted, "the difficulty is in reasoning through how to calculate the surface area of the prism"—this meant extra time spent hunting for steps rather than applying knowledge.

In Year 10 algebra, a reluctance to write out the full working led to confusion with sign errors and missed simplification opportunities.

For a primary student tackling fractions, mixing up when to add versus multiply resulted in hesitation during problem-solving.

One senior student's tendency to approach worded questions only by "memorising" methods left her unsure when new twists appeared on exams.

Recent Achievements

One Braddon tutor noticed a big change in Juan, a high schooler who had previously struggled to keep up—he's now taking the lead on tricky questions and working through problems independently after revising at home between sessions.

In Year 10 maths, Becky has shifted from quietly following along to actively choosing which word problems she wants to tackle, showing she can now internalise how to solve them rather than waiting for step-by-step help.

Meanwhile, Evie (Year 3) used to guess at multiplication tables but is now breaking down harder ones herself and explaining her thinking out loud during lessons.

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 Dickson Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Merici College.
