Modern History Tutor Reid, ACT
The most important thing for a tutor is to understand their student. All students have different strengths and weaknesses, and it is the responsibility of the tutor to understand their student as an individual in order to tutor in a way that is the most effective for a student to improve. For example, one of my students in the past learnt best…

Inside Oaks EstateTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Ari focused on statistics topics including calculating mean, median, mode, and range as well as constructing and interpreting box-and-whisker plots and identifying outliers.

For Year 8 English, Muhammad worked through reading comprehension and vocabulary exercises for "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas" and began planning a creative crime fiction podcast by outlining scenes and character profiles.

Year 12 student Noah reviewed Ancient History source analysis skills by unpacking compare-and-contrast short answer questions and practiced OPCVL (Origin, Purpose, Content, Value, Limitation) responses using historical sources.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 English, one student deleted his entire essay after the teacher changed the required format but didn't send a new draft for feedback, likely due to time pressure or reluctance—this left him unprepared for editing.

For Year 7 Mathematics, as a tutor noted, "he needs to show his thinking on the page when solving problems," especially with linear graphs; working only mentally made errors hard to spot.

A Year 9 student forgot homework two weeks running and struggled with organizing materials, which limited lesson progress and led to rushed sessions as library hours ended abruptly.

Recent Achievements

One Oaks Estate tutor noticed a Year 11 student who previously struggled with graphical linear equations now confidently working through these problems using multiple methods, even asking for extra practice before his next exam.

In Year 8 English, a student who often submitted vague thesis statements revised his essay plan mid-lesson, making his main idea much clearer and more concise than in past attempts.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who used to quietly guess at answers began openly asking for help when stuck on reading tasks—showing real initiative by requesting clarification before moving on.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Natalie is really good and reliable. Cheryl is actually enjoying her tutor lessons with Natalie and looks forward to them. I actually was watching them for a bit during one lesson and I have to say, the way Natalie tutors is quite impressive. I have no negative feedback about her. Really appreciate your help in finding a good tutor for my sister :)

Jacqueline is really enjoying having Denise as her tutor.  She finds Denise's manner and approach to tutoring very good.  Jacqueline said it has made a great difference in her knowledge, understanding and confidence.

Vik is doing very well, my daughter is very happy. She would like to continue with him.

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 Queanbeyan-Palerang Library Service—or at your child's school (with permission), like Queanbeyan West Public School.
