Biology Tutor Capel Sound, VIC
Adapting to a students learning style. Each student learns differently and to be able to teach the same content in different ways is definitely important. Also connecting with the student, ensuring they feel confident and connected to make mistakes and ask questions. My strengths are definitely the fact that I’m a teacher, I have experience,…

Inside BoneoTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Mira worked on measurement concepts and reviewed shape identification alongside basic addition and subtraction.

In Year 8, Willow focused on solving linear equations and tackling more complex fraction operations, using step-by-step breakdowns for clarity.

For Year 9, lessons with Sam included applying the index laws to simplify algebraic expressions and practising graphing linear equations by plotting points and drawing straight-line graphs.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 Maths, Riley often avoided writing out his working—preferring to talk through problems or attempt mental calculations. As a tutor noted, "he attempts to do all his working in his head," which led to lost steps and confusion when simplifying fractions or solving equations.

During graphing tasks, skipping labels and not recording axis intercepts made it harder for him to check answers or spot errors.

Meanwhile, Willow (Year 8) repeatedly submitted incomplete homework and rarely showed detailed steps in algebra practice; this habit meant mistakes went unnoticed until review time.

Gracie (Year 5) hesitated to attempt unfamiliar questions without encouragement, leading her to leave sections blank during long multiplication drills—her confidence dipped after each missed answer.

Recent Achievements

During a Boneo tutoring session, Willow began to solve complex fractions and percentage problems in her head after previously needing step-by-step guidance. She's also now taking on extra work unprompted.

Riley recently started expanding brackets and collecting like terms without hesitation, marking a shift from his earlier confusion with algebraic notation. He has grown noticeably quicker at mental calculations during lessons.

Gracie in primary school has gone from feeling overwhelmed by place value to managing complex numbers independently, and she is now welcoming the challenge of Year 8 maths ahead of schedule.

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 Mobile Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Boneo Primary School.
