Tutor Mawson, ACT
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…

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.

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.
