I believe persistence is key when learning mathematics.

To show patience and know students do have the ability to understand concepts, would mean a great deal to their progress. My strengths…

The most important thing a tutor can teach their student is to be able to sucessfully tackle a subject by themselves.

Inside DrewvaleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Zoe worked on linear equations, focusing on rearranging formulae and revising key algebra fundamentals, before being introduced to probability concepts.

In Year 11, Ethan tackled derivatives—both from first principles and using standard rules—and began applying these skills to physics assignments.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Priya focused on bivariate data analysis for her maths assignment, including drafting conclusions from scatter graphs and interpreting real-world correlations.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student working on algebra often left steps unwritten, making it hard for the teacher to spot errors—"writing down steps and working out clearly for teacher to mark" was flagged as a next step.

In Year 12 Physics assignments, drafts were submitted with incomplete analysis sections; despite feedback, some written parts remained underdeveloped.

A Year 8 student arrived late to several lessons, losing valuable time and momentum ("came 10 minutes late for tutoring but spent 1 hour and 20 mins on lesson").

For one Year 11 Maths Methods student, not recalling previously learned rules slowed progress in revision sessions.

Recent Achievements

One Drewvale tutor recently noticed a Year 11 student who, after struggling with calculus concepts, now applies derivative rules independently to exam problems with much less prompting than before.

In a separate high school session, another student took feedback from their last chemistry assignment and made clear improvements—this time handing in a draft that needed far fewer corrections.

Meanwhile, during a Year 4 lesson, a student who previously hesitated to ask for help began raising her hand when stuck instead of guessing silently, which let her finish all her times tables exercises without errors.

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 Logan West Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Stretton State College.
