Psychology Tutor Lawson, ACT
Improving a student's results is obviously the goal for tutoring, but improving a student's confidence in themselves and their abilities is just as important. Watching a student start to believe in themselves and take the reins is a marker of success. I work well with kids and teens, as I am enthusiastic and make an effort to get to know them and…

Psychology Tutor Watson, ACT
A tutor can notice the student's strength and nourish it through a structured set of activities that the student can do in class as well as independently. A tutor can also notice the areas of student's weaknesses and supply the student with a learning program that can tackle these weaknesses gradually and methodically. Additionally, a tutor is a…

Psychology Tutor Acton, ACT
To be a supportive but at the same time critical tutor is important, as not only to accompany students general well being, but also to ensure they are learning efficiently and effectively in excell in any subject. Student's want to improve, but also enjoy and have fun while learning, so I think a tutoring experience that accomodates that is the…

Psychology Tutor Acton, ACT
I believe that a tutor shouldn't be perceived as a strictly authoritative figure - keeping the student engaged and building a strong relationship is a vital component in the effectiveness of the tutoring. Students - myself included - gain much more knowledge when lessons are more flexible. It usually takes me a few sessions to understand a…

Psychology Tutor Gungahlin, ACT
The responsibilities of a tutor involve not only cultivating subject knowledge but also developing a passion for learning. Building a strong connection with the student, identifying their unique learning style, and adapting teaching strategies accordingly are crucial. Moreover, a tutor plays a pivotal role in instilling confidence, critical…

Inside McKellarTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Atiana worked on subtraction and practiced simple addition, focusing on building foundational number skills.

In Year 9, Sam tackled algebra by collecting like terms and solving equations, as well as reviewing indices using examples from his school booklet.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Amy concentrated on solving exponential and logarithmic functions and learned how to sketch their graphs for different transformations.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student repeatedly skipped writing working for algebra and fractions, making it hard to catch calculation errors—"he jumped to the answer but struggled to explain his steps," a tutor observed.

In Year 10, not planning answers before starting probability tree diagrams led to confusion in interpreting multi-step problems.

For a Year 4 student, incomplete homework meant new fraction concepts weren't reinforced between lessons.

A Year 11 student lost confidence after small mistakes in calculus; this hesitation made her reluctant to attempt harder questions, leaving challenging derivative problems unpractised by session's end.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Mckellar noticed some encouraging shifts across a range of students recently. Charlotte (Year 12) had struggled with the chain rule in calculus but now applies it accurately and with clear reasoning during sessions.

In Year 9, Sam used to make frequent mistakes on long multiplication, but after steady practice he recently completed all his homework questions correctly—something he couldn't manage just a few weeks ago.

Meanwhile, Amy (Year 11) used to hesitate asking for help when stuck; this week, she openly asked questions whenever a physics concept felt unclear and worked through challenging rate-of-change problems with greater persistence.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Jordan seems to be doing a great job with Ruby after 2 lessons. I am happy for him to continue and hope that Ruby continues to improve.

Tommi is learning so much every week he is with ramzy and his grades at school in math class have improved dramatically. We have previously hired other maths tutors, but none other have helped like Ramzy has. Tommi has said that maths is now an enjoyable subject and looks forward to his tutoring when needed. 5 star rating and will be recommending to others.

We are very Happy with Pareise. Zoe looks forward to her lessons with her. Pareise is always on time and speaks o Zoe in a well-mannered and appropriate way.

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 Miles Franklin Primary School.
