The most important thing for tutor to do is to teach their students how to better understand subject better and how that can apply in their everyday lives I think I am a very patient person and that I can take the time to help people understand better in subjects that they are not very knowledgeable…

Ancient History Tutor Acton, ACT
A tutor is not there to do a student's homework for them but rather to help them think and problem solve in new ways so that they can complete their work more effectively and be a more independent learner. Thus, a tutor can help by bringing with themselves a large amount of knowledge in the subject area(s) and by having a patient and understanding…

A tutor can instil the love of learning and academic achievement to a student. This is the MOST important things a tutor can do for a student as it will equip them for the 'real' world ahead where their capacity to think will be tested outside the academic environment.

Being understanding, compassionate, and encouraging. Having someone in your corner who fully believes in you makes an absolute world of difference. But having someone who is compassionate as well, I think that is most important. There are many variables that can influence a students' educational experience, and having someone who is understanding…

A tutor should accept the student's skill level and understanding capacity and should always keep them encouraged towards positivity. He or she needs to boost the student's confidence to thrive for success without creating a sense of fear or pressure. A tutor also needs to create lessons that can make the learning process interesting and not…

I believe the best tutors are more mentors than teachers. A tutor should make sure every student is comfortable to participate in the learning experience. Students and parents expect a tutor to deliver personalised attention and guidance. A tutor should be able to deliver such service. A good tutor would make learning easier by involving the class…

As tutors, we can teach the kids the knowledge that they're learning in class, or help them with their assignments.

I think the most important facet is personalising lesson plans and taking time to understand the main shortcomings of each individual student.

I think that a tutor's job is more than teaching content; just as important is ensuring that the student remains engaged and feels comfortable and confident. A tutor should endeavour to make the content fun to learn and easier to understand, and most importantly the tutor should always encourage and support the student through any setbacks,…

I think to be dependable and reliable is the best thing for a student, so that they can feel safe with asking for help from their tutor.

I think one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to give them confidence in themselves and their understanding of the subject.

Inside ScullinTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Ruby focused on converting rates using the unitary method and practiced solving real-world word problems involving percentages and ratios.

Year 9 student Tom worked through linear inequalities and graphed straight lines, then extended to finding midpoints and distances between points on the Cartesian plane using diagrams.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student James tackled differentiation techniques, including applying the chain rule and practicing with questions involving tangents to curves.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student hesitated to ask for help during algebra sessions, a pattern also noted in his regular classroom—this reluctance left errors unaddressed and slowed progress on solving equations.

In Year 10, another student tended to skip labeling triangle sides in geometry, making it harder to identify orientation and leading to repeated confusion; as the tutor described, "he finds himself getting stuck because the layout isn't clear."

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner relied heavily on visual flashcards for times tables but struggled with oral recall without them, meaning instant fact retrieval was much weaker when tested verbally.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Scullin noticed a real shift with Jensen (Year 9), who previously hesitated to seek clarification but now consistently asks for help and even prepares questions ahead of sessions—something he never did before.

In senior maths, Callan (Year 12) had struggled to confidently apply index laws, but recently began using the power rule accurately and built on his understanding of limits.

Meanwhile, Evie (Year 4) used to rely heavily on her fingers for basic calculations; after practising verbal math games and using flashcards, she answered all her six times table problems perfectly without finger counting.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Isabella likes the fact that Mina will give her Maths problems to work on to reinforce what she has learnt , rather than just explain concepts and move on. She feels that Mina makes sure that she UNDERSTANDS the concepts.

Chloe is fantastic. Jasmine enjoys the maths time in the way chloe has set it out. Jas has already made progress and chloe helps building her confidence. She is wonderful thank you so much.

Blake seems to enjoy his tutoring so far, as you said it can take a few lessons to really get settled.

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 Southern Cross Early Childhood School.
