In my perspective mathematics is all about practice, understanding concepts and master them. Tutor's job is to make students understand the concepts but at the same time, they should not spoon feed them by constraining them to certain important questions only! Student should be able to do all types of questions and apply the concepts in daily life…

As I said before, the most important things a tutor can do for a student is first of all get them excited about education or going to school or a specific subject, whatever their situation may be, as well as give them the tools, independence and knowledge to be able to achieve what they want out of school. I believe I am well-versed in a wide…

The most important thing is to understand how the student learns the best i.e. whether they are a visual leaner, audio learner etc and using those tools to help them improve in areas they lack and help them out overall. I have a lot of international experience working with different types of students and different age groups therefore I will be…

The tutor must be able to eliminate every question or doubt a student has on a subject or concept and enable the student to comprehend the information not just for scoring grades, but, for understanding and using the information in any scenario which requires it. Hence, the tutor must be able to inculcate this idea in the student and facilitate…

The most important thing for a tutor is to understand their student.

For example, one of my students in the past learnt best…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is not only boost their confidence in a subject, but also their enthusiasm for the subject. Giving students who are bored with the content as they find it too easy more difficult problems peaks their interest, as I have seen in the past. Students who are struggling and as a result lose interest…

I feel that a tutor can basically change a student's perception to a particular subject. A tutor has the power to build the foundations of a subject in a simplified and innovative way such that it is comprehended easily by the students. When it comes to teaching new concepts, I seldom go by the book. I think it is more important to give a…

I think the most important things a tutor can do is to make the content understandable rather than just helping to memorise it. But also to normalise mistakes and to assert the importance of educated guessing. Any student can learn faster by giving something a go rather than waiting until they are certain. I believe I can explain and break down…

Inside GiralangTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Sam worked on converting measurements between units like metres and litres, then practiced algebra skills such as using pronumerals and indices.

In Year 9, Angus revised factorising quadratic equations with the sum-product method and began solving quadratics using both substitution and elimination techniques.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Atiana focused on exponential and logarithmic functions, including graphing these functions to deepen her understanding of their properties.

Recent Challenges

Homework completion has been an ongoing issue for a Year 6 student; recent notes repeatedly highlight that work is not being submitted, which is starting to impact retention of maths and English skills.

In a senior secondary setting, one Year 11 student was observed "rushing through" trigonometry test questions—leading to repeated careless errors that would have been caught with slower, more methodical checking.

Another high school student hesitated to write down algebra steps, jumping straight to answers but struggling to explain reasoning when asked. This left gaps in working that made reviewing mistakes harder during sessions.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Giralang recently saw a Year 10 student move from struggling with non-monic quadratics to confidently factorising them after some patient review, even building a personalised cheat sheet for revision.

Another high schooler, who used to rush through algebra questions and miss steps, is now back-checking each solution and catching small mistakes on her own—something she rarely did before.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student has begun using the "thinking aloud" technique while tackling tricky geometry problems, which helped her independently spot where she'd made an error and correct it without prompting.

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