A good tutor can make a student more confident in problem solving, help them to identify their own problem. A good tutor can cooperate and support students to boost up their brains. I am a good listener which can help me to understand their problem effectively and make a proper and specific solution. I have ability to provide accurate result of…

Science Tutor Red Hill, ACT
I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to create a comfortable environment where they feel safe asking any question, no matter how small, and to make learning an enjoyable experience. It’s also essential to build their confidence by helping them understand their strengths and develop the skills they need to succeed.…

Science Tutor Garran, 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…

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…

I think tutoring is so much more than just helping a student improve their maths or science skills. It’s about building up motivation and self-confidence, and teaching students valuable skills they can apply to their learning later in life. For example: identifying what they are struggling to understand, asking questions confidently, and coming…

Help them to grow in their strengths and to encourage them to reach their potential in the subject. To teach them to be teachable and to teach others. I like the phrase that “each one teaches oneâ€. I may start to teach them but one day I hope the student is able to teach another the same skill. I am patient and am good at breaking down a…

Mitch has been a helpful and friendly tutor. He has been able to offer specific and structured ways to improve performance in assessments and answering questions. This has improved both understanding of concepts and the ability to approach maths as a whole.

Inside GilmoreTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Liam focused on solving linear equations and simultaneous equations using substitution, with extra practice on expanding binomials.

Year 10 student Ava tackled boxplots and scatter plots to interpret data visually, then worked through writing and solving inequalities from worded problems.

For a Year 7 session, Ethan practiced simplifying ratios by finding common factors and revisited the BODMAS order of operations using step-by-step written examples.

Recent Challenges

Jay hadn't done any extra revision for her exam since the last session. This led to difficulty recalling older material under pressure.

In Year 12, another student often arrived without clear goals or prepared materials, making it hard to target weak areas in advanced pattern tests.

Messy formatting and incomplete working in senior algebra were also observed—one tutor wrote, "Needs to format her questions and answers a little better," which caused errors to go unnoticed until feedback was given during lessons.

Recent Achievements

One Gilmore tutor noted a big shift in a Year 10 student who started writing out steps for solving problems on cards—something she hadn't tried before—which helped her tackle tricky exam questions with less hesitation.

In another session, a Year 11 student who'd previously stayed quiet began to ask for clarification when something didn't make sense, making it easier to address gaps right away.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student, after struggling with addition last term, surprised his tutor by finishing all ten mental addition problems without using his fingers or needing reminders.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Sarah is finding the tutoring with Shabana very helpful. Sarah has has three tutoring sessions and Shabana has been explaining concepts or questions which Sarah found confusing. I really like the way Shabana interacts with Sarah and how she keeps reminding her about the importance of practising.

I am very pleased to provide feedback. Matthew has been outstanding, polite, punctual and an excellent tutor. He is an asset to your business and please pass on our commendation.

We have had a few lessons with Deanna and She seems to be very enthusiastic and keen to teach Catherine.

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 Erindale Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Gilmore Primary School.
