Local Reviews

Chris is a fantastic tutor. He is well prepared, engaged and doesn't do the work for my son. He asks questions, identifies problem areas, is encouraging and genuinely interested in teaching and building confidence. Chris communicates well, is always on time and I would highly recommend him. My son's maths results have improved from Cs to As....my son calls Chris a walking encyclopedia!

Inside BonnerTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Jayden worked on division and multiplication strategies as well as subtraction and addition practice, focusing on accuracy and using visual aids for tricky questions.

For Year 8, Olivia tackled linear equations and the Cartesian plane, including plotting points and interpreting simple graphs to support her classroom work.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Priya reviewed index and logarithm laws before moving onto exponential growth and decay problems, applying these concepts to real-life scenarios like population change.

Recent Challenges

Homework completion and organization have been inconsistent, especially in Year 9 and above: homework was sometimes left unfinished or completed very late (e.g., "student completed homework at 3am"), with key materials like notebooks and past papers forgotten or damaged.

In Year 11, reliance on hints during Mathspace meant the working-out process wasn't always clear to the tutor. As one note put it, "student NEEDS to show working out and not just show the answer."

During a timed quiz for Year 10, spending triple the intended time revealed ongoing difficulties with test pacing.

At times, distraction from devices also slowed progress—especially when practice was needed for upcoming assessments.

Recent Achievements

One Bonner tutor recently noticed a Year 9 student who used to rush through maths quizzes now slowing down and checking her answers, catching mistakes before submitting—something she'd never done before.

In Year 11, a student who previously struggled with simultaneous equations managed to solve a tricky substitution problem completely on her own without hints for the first time.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student showed new independence by finishing all their subtraction homework using the vertical method, tackling each question step by step without needing reassurance from the tutor.

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 Neville Bonner Primary School.
