Amelie

Science Tutor Wagaman, NT
A tutor should be patient and never say something is easy. They should always encourage and find ways to explain something step-by-step such that everything is explained and can be linked back to a central idea. I am patient, friendly, and I can see and understand why something can be difficult to understand. I encourage and can relate to finding…

Science Tutor Casuarina, NT
I believe one of the most important thing would be to build a student's confidence, teaching them to feel positive about themselves. Perhaps the student feels incapable of solving problems,despite possessing the ability. Thus, it is a tutor's duty to show students that they are capable and believe in themselves. It is also important that the…

Inside MuirheadTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Elise focused on multiplying fractions and worked through a reading comprehension worksheet centred on persuasive texts.

Year 10 student Amelie tackled simultaneous linear equations and practiced identifying parallel and perpendicular lines, using diagrams to reinforce concepts.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Amelie reviewed trigonometric functions on the unit circle, including determining exact values in radians in preparation for her upcoming test.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student's habit of skipping written working in algebra—"he worked things out in his head and missed steps," as noted by a tutor—meant small sign errors went unnoticed until late.

In Year 10, incomplete homework became a pattern; one lesson was spent finishing last week's assignment instead of tackling new content.

For a senior student revising trigonometry, revision focused only on familiar drills rather than more complex applications, leading to shaky recall under test pressure.

Meanwhile, an upper primary student often arrived without necessary materials or workbooks, losing valuable learning time hunting for supplies.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Muirhead noticed that Amelie, a high school student, now pinpoints her own mistakes during maths tests and corrects them independently—a big shift from earlier sessions where she hesitated to self-check.

Elise, also in high school, used to rush through multi-step problems but is now outlining each step before solving, which has led to more accurate answers and neater working out.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student surprised their tutor by quickly finishing a fractions worksheet—despite struggling with the topic previously—and even volunteered to talk through how they solved the hardest question without prompting.

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 Casuarina Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Dripstone Middle School.
