Ancient History Tutor Coombs, ACT
As a reliable and motivational tutor, I lead by example demonstrating initiative to commence and finish projects. I set clear expectations and monitor performance against agreed plans with key performance indicators. As trust, confidence and good performance is further demonstrated, I encourage initiative and reward students with more autonomy. I…

Ancient History Tutor Acton, ACT
I think one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to give them confidence in themselves and their understanding of the subject. I find that from confidence can come a wealth of improvement in performance, as a student's willingness to take risks and belief themselves can go a long way. In terms of specific strengths, I…

Ancient History Tutor Acton, ACT
A tutor is not there to do a student's homework for them but rather to help them think and problem solve in new ways so that they can complete their work more effectively and be a more independent learner. Thus, a tutor can help by bringing with themselves a large amount of knowledge in the subject area(s) and by having a patient and understanding…

Gurjit

Ancient History Tutor Acton, ACT
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is to help students develop critical thinking skills. It’s not just about giving them the right answers, but guiding them to ask the right questions, break down problems, and reason through solutions on their own. This way, they become independent learners who can tackle new challenges with…

Hugo

Ancient History Tutor Acton, ACT
I think to be dependable and reliable is the best thing for a student, so that they can feel safe with asking for help from their tutor. A student must first feel safe around their teacher so that they can more openly accept guidance and assistance. I consider myself a very friendly and approachable person. As someone who experienced academic…

Michael

Ancient History Tutor Acton, ACT
I think the most important facet is personalising lesson plans and taking time to understand the main shortcomings of each individual student. Being able to have open conversations and earn students trust to offer constructive feedback that extends outside the lesson - e.g dealing with mental stress and study regimes - can be far more important to…

Local Reviews

We are very impressed by Rish already. Her communication and thoroughness with the first session has been terrific. My son was beaming afterwards from the renewed sense of confidence Rish helped him discover. We're looking forward to the positive outcomes her tutoring will eventuate in.

Inside CoombsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Sami focused on factorising by grouping and calculating the volume of prisms and cylinders, practicing with step-by-step examples.

In Year 10, Maddy worked through solving linear equations and reviewed applications of trigonometric ratios using diagrams to reinforce understanding.

For Year 11 Specialist Maths, Alex explored vectors—covering vector addition, scalar multiplication, and components—as well as permutations and combinations through practical problem sets.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8, a student relied on their calculator for basic operations—"requires calculator for simple multiplying (x 3 etc.), and squared numbers"—which slowed problem-solving during more complex test questions.

For a Year 11 Modern History task, late work was flagged: the report draft and bibliography were not submitted before the deadline, leading to last-minute stress.

Another senior student struggled with organization in English, often forgetting to bring required materials or copies of recent tests to sessions.

When composing an oral presentation in Year 10, perfectionism delayed drafting, as "notes weren't transformed into a speech" until just before practice was due.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Coombs noticed Sami, a high school student, took the initiative to create his own maths questions after struggling with parabolas, which helped him improve from a C to a 71% on his recent exam—well above his target.

Rory, also in high school, showed real perseverance by writing continuously for almost an hour during an English session and later received positive feedback from his teacher for thoroughly covering assessment requirements.

In Year 6, Bea went from hesitating over difficult maths problems to finishing three complex exercises independently and proudly shared, "I'm proud of myself."

What they say about our tutoring

Hi Erica, Thanks for your email - we are very happy with Keith.  Both Caleb and Elijah have settled well with him.

Everything is going well so far. The tutoring has been working well. Jamie seems to connect with Kevin. We are away next week but hopefully I can keep the momentum up with Jamie!

I have been extremely pleased with our ezymath tutor, Lawrence.  Apparently "he knows everything about maths".  He has worked diligently and patiently with my daughter and has managed to keep her focused throughout each lesson.  I also found the reports he provided about her progress detailed and considered and very helpful in providing feedback about her strengths, gaps and progress. I found ezymath tutoring very professional and easy to deal with.  There were no contracts, which makes it very flexible, the price was reasonable and the tutor came to our house. They provided a tutor who was current with the HSC curriculum and very knowledgeable about his subject.   The feedback reports that were provided at the end of each term were very detailed about all areas of the learning - both the positive and the areas she needed to work on. I would definitely recommend ezymath tutoring to other parents - it has been a very positive experience....

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.
