Engineering Studies Tutor Charnwood, ACT
I think the most important things are: Always being positive, look for the good points and don't only dwell on the negative. Be clear with the student, make sure they understand it takes time and effort to get better. Share your own shortcoming/mistakes you have made (in regards to the content), to help make you more relatable and…

Engineering Studies Tutor Acton, ACT
A tutor can make a student love the subject he/she hates. The most important thing for a tutor is to understand the student, his/her interests, aptitude, and what he/she is inclined towards. If you have a basic idea of the student mindset you can develop techniques to make them understand the subject in a way they don't find it hard. Gamification…

Saara is so lovely and our daughter is really enjoying her sessions.

Inside NichollsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Olivia focused on simplifying linear equations and practiced converting fractions to decimals using real-world word problems.

For Year 9, Ethan worked through solving simultaneous equations with both substitution and elimination methods, reinforcing these skills with targeted examples.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Mia covered compound interest calculations and reviewed the application of Pythagoras' Theorem in geometry questions, using step-by-step diagrams to aid understanding.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student regularly relied on a calculator for basic times tables, as noted: "needs to work on fundamentals—times tables for year 9—the more he can guestimate the answer the more likely he can eliminate any extreme errors."

In a Year 7 algebra session, skipping written steps led to confusion when isolating unknowns, resulting in extra time spent correcting sign errors.

At primary level, several students avoided completing homework or forgot materials needed for revision, which slowed progress and left gaps before new topics.

One senior student's tendency to overthink subtraction meant test time was wasted second-guessing instead of answering.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Nicholls recently noticed a Year 9 student finally cracked simultaneous equations using both substitution and elimination—something they'd avoided before because it felt overwhelming.

In a Year 7 maths session, another student began to independently spot when subtraction was needed in word problems, catching their own mistakes instead of waiting for hints.

Meanwhile, one of the younger students who used to freeze during reading now volunteers to read aloud and even pauses to sound out tricky words without prompting. At the end of her last lesson, she confidently finished a whole page by herself.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are really happy with Jarryd, we realise it is going to take time and we are prepared to do that for Thomas. Thomas is really comfortable with Jarryd and this helps. Wish we had done this earlier. Thanks for the enquiry.

Hi, Ruhail has been great and his flexibility has helped enormously. He spent 3.5 hours with Casey last weekend as she had a test she was very concerned about. Casey did much better in her test than she would have done and we are already over the moon. Please pass on our thanks.

Yes, we are very pleased that Sophia likes Rebecca and the tutoring seems to be going well. Rebecca obviously has patience and takes the time to explain things so Sophia can follow them and work through the maths, which is exactly what we wanted. The problem with the school is they move along so fast that there is not enough practice time, and we (the parents) are not familiar with what they teach so we can't just help out quickly; we have to re-learn it ourselves first, and then we're probably not good at explaining clearly. That's why it is great having Rebecca who can obviously explain things in a way Sophia understands. The main thing is that Sophia sees herself as 'Ëśno good at maths', but when something is explained so she understands it, she is very pleased when she can get the right answers. A lot of it is a confidence thing I think, and also her school maths teacher has been quite negative about her work; so hopefully the tutoring will rebuild some of Sophia's general confidence over time, which would be great. Sophia will never be a star at maths, but if she can just get passes instead of always negative marks and comments from school, we will be quite happy with that. Sophia is very good at English/Hums and art; maths is her weak area, and we are very pleased (and actually surprised) that she is sitting through an hour of maths tutoring each week without complaint. We did not know how it would go; we tried one other tutor a few months ago , a retired male maths teacher - and she hated it. So this time we are very happy.

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 Gungahlin Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Gold Creek School.
