A good tutor doesn’t just help students get the right answers—they help them understand the ‘why’ behind concepts and develop the skills to tackle problems on their…

In my opinion, a tutor is not just for supporting a student to complete his assessments and helping them to solve questions. A tutor has an even more close connection with a student than his school teacher. Hence he has a better chance to identify what is the level of a particular student and what support he or she actually needs. Other…

Local Reviews
Inside GowanbraeTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 7 student Adam worked through identifying prime and composite numbers, and converting between percentages, decimals, and fractions.
In Year 8, Priya focused on algebra skills including factorization and solving linear equations, as well as graphing simple linear relationships.
Meanwhile, Year 5 student Aiden practised long division with remainders and tackled adding mixed number fractions using visual aids for clarity.
Recent Challenges
Homework completion and organization presented issues across both primary and secondary levels. For example, a Year 7 student left several algebra and linear equation exercises unfinished, with notes showing "make a habit of doing homework (grade 5 and grade 7 yearly exam are given)."
In Year 8 maths, messy written work—especially in fractions and factorisation—made it hard to check steps or spot errors. As one tutor observed, "review the textbook questions that have been solved—cover up the workings and attempt again," but avoidance of reworking mistakes meant gaps persisted into new topics.
The impact was most noticeable during test preparation: confusion over missed steps slowed revision momentum.
Recent Achievements
One Gowanbrae tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 8 student's approach: after previously needing reminders to stay focused, she now independently completes her algebra and exponent exercises before the session ends.
In high school art, Louis moved from hesitating over digital tools to confidently experimenting with Photoshop for his Warhol-inspired project, even trying out new effects without prompting—he's now ahead of class milestones.
Meanwhile, Bella in Year 4, who used to rely heavily on step-by-step guidance for subtraction with borrowing, now works through problems on her own and checks her answers without being asked.
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 Glenroy Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Glenroy West Primary School.
