Being patient, considerate and to also understand why the student may be struggling and find ways to help them based on their needs, rather than what worked for the tutor.

Inside Clarendon ValeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Scarlett focused on developing creative writing by structuring introductory paragraphs for short stories and practiced identifying Greek and Latin roots in vocabulary, applying this to sentence construction.

In Year 11 Chemistry, Aimee worked through stoichiometry problems including mole-mass conversions, then revised organic chemistry concepts ahead of her SAC using targeted practice questions.

Meanwhile, Charli in Year 12 Biology consolidated her understanding of the adaptive immune system and tackled related exam-style questions, followed by revision on evolution using class notes and practice assessments.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student was often hesitant to start creative writing tasks, delaying her work out of fear that her ideas "weren't good enough." This avoidance meant her strongest points sometimes never made it onto the page, as noted in one session: "She stalled and avoided launching into the memoir until prompted."

Meanwhile, a Year 12 Chemistry student tended to become overwhelmed by multi-step questions, overcomplicating them rather than breaking them down. During a SAC, this led to missed marks when she didn't refer back to key equations or use available resources like data tables for support.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Clarendon Vale noticed that Aimee, a high school student, has started tackling unfamiliar chemistry topics before lessons and now confidently applies new problem-solving methods independently—previously she hesitated without direct guidance.

Another secondary student, Charli, showed initiative by pinpointing her own weaker areas for focus and now actively clarifies understanding during sessions instead of staying quiet about confusion.

Meanwhile, Scarlett in Year 7 moved from needing prompts to adding descriptive detail on her own when writing memoirs; last week she completed the research phase of her biography project solo and brought thoughtful insights to the draft.

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 State Library of Tasmania—or at your child's school (with permission), like John Paul II Catholic School.
