Every student has his own mind, not everyone has the ability to catch up with the content of the lecture/course. It's important for every tutor to find students who are facing problems in classrooms and make them feel they too have the ability to be successful in the course. Whenever a student feels he won't be able to succeed its every tutor's…

As a tutor apart from the subject we need to teach ethics, moral values. And how to overcome the problems they are facing in a day to day life. My major strength is my experience. Because I've been teaching so long I've taught almost every course we offer. As a result, I've told both my chairman and the Principal to do my classes last; I'll be…

We found Deanna to be friendly, helpful and really engaged Erin in learning her Algebra. I was especially happy with how the company handles children that are shy and not as confident as others.

Inside GlenhavenTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 student Maya focused on critical path analysis for project management scenarios and practiced advanced statistics skills including calculating z-scores, standard deviation, and mean.

Year 11 student Oliver completed past HSC geometry and probability questions, working through selective school exam papers to strengthen understanding of key problem types.

For Year 9, Ethan revised area and volume calculations along with probability concepts using a mix of recent exam papers to build confidence for upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Mathematics, one student missed several lessons due to TAFE commitments and now faces a backlog of material to catch up on—this has led to gaps in exam preparation, as noted: "Should catch up on lessons missed out due to TAFE asap."

A Year 8 student consistently avoided showing full working for algebra questions; the tutor observed, "he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors."

In Year 4, another learner forgot about a scheduled lesson entirely. These moments meant time was spent recovering lost ground or correcting avoidable mistakes instead of moving forward with new content.

Recent Achievements

A Glenhaven tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to hesitate with probability questions now independently draws accurate probability trees after just a brief demonstration.

In another session, a Year 9 student who once waited for hints began practicing past exam papers on her own initiative, identifying her weak spots before lessons.

Meanwhile, one of the younger students surprised their tutor by tackling long division worksheets confidently on the very first attempt—a big shift from last term's nervousness around new maths topics. The lesson ended with her solving every question without help.

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 Dural Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Glenhaven Public School.
