Science Tutor Cook, ACT
I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is obviously helping them in their studies, both in terms of improving their grades, but also their critical thinking skills for future learning. I think the key with this in a tutoring context, rather than classroom teaching, is catering to a student’s needs, and making sure that…

Science Tutor Chifley, ACT
A tutor influences a student in many ways. He or she contributes a lot to the personality of a student. The most important thing a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, is to build confidence. And I believe confidence is something that is essential throughout a persons life. It's the confidence that makes one believe that they could do things…

Help the student build confidence, a lot of the time when they might be struggling with a concept lack of confidence can be a big part of the problem, i think creating a safe and understanding learning environment where the student is able to try freely is the most important thing a tutor can do. I think that being able to explain and understand a…

Science Tutor Hughes, ACT
Through my time at university, I have found the ability to be patient is what separates my current tutors apart. A willingness to stop and answer questions, that some may be too scared to ask, has certainly improved my learning opportunities. The notion of ‘no stupid questions’ in my Power Electronics course this semester has been a great…

Science Tutor Higgins, ACT
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…

Inside StromloTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Sam worked on proving triangle congruence and similarity using SSS and RHS tests, then calculated scale factors for similar triangles.

In Year 10, Chloe practised forming formulae for advanced chemical compounds by considering ion charges and balanced complex chemical equations from written prompts.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Priya focused on applying the chain, product, and quotient rules to solve derivative problems in calculus and identified stationary points through differentiation.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student struggled with time management during exams, leaving questions unanswered and missing marks—"careless mistakes like missing terms cost points," noted one tutor.

In Year 10 calculus, skipping steps to save time led to confusion about which symbols represented what in derivatives, especially when several formulas appeared at once.

For a Year 7 student, not reading the question thoroughly in algebra resulted in missed objectives and incomplete solutions.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner's spelling issues persisted even after practice: "spelling test result is 40%," requiring more focused revision and daily writing.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Stromlo noted a real shift with one Year 10 student who previously rushed through chemistry equations but now takes the time to identify polyatomic ions and balance equations accurately—she even completed her last set twice as fast without missing any charges.

Another high schooler, usually hesitant to ask for help, started openly questioning tricky steps during maths sessions, then used these clarifications to solve area and volume problems on his own.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who'd struggled with long division began finishing quizzes with over 90% accuracy after consistently practicing new strategies.

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 Woden Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Evelyn Scott School.
