Tutor Mount Tarampa, QLD
As above, affirming their limitations JUST AS MUCH as their strengths - affirm, affirm, affirm! I believe the most fundamental truth is found in admitting and celebrating weakness. I would prioritise my strengths as: - enthusiasm - pedantic attention to detail - strong synthesising skills and understanding across a wide range of…

Inside Lockyer WatersTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 Cale focused on algebraic skills like expanding and simplifying equations, as well as reviewing index laws and surds to strengthen his foundation for upcoming assessments.

A Year 9 student worked through linear and quadratic equation graphing, using visual explanations to build confidence with coordinate geometry.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student tackled adding and subtracting decimals alongside exploring different strategies for solving maths problems to find the approach that suits him best.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student lost a major Maths assignment due to poor file management, which had a serious impact on his grade—"we will need to change the way he has been saving his documents."

In Year 10 Maths, messy recall of formulas and weak written working led to mistakes when faced with worded problems or questions about mean and mode.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student's note-taking was flagged as lacking: she hadn't summarized key concepts in her notebook after lessons, so revision took longer and gaps went unnoticed.

Without organized revision routines, these students often spent extra time relearning basics rather than building new skills.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Lockyer Waters noticed a Year 10 student, who previously struggled with showing his maths working, now laying out each step on paper without prompting—something he'd avoided before.

Meanwhile, one high school student took initiative by researching her English assignment before the session began, which marked a real shift from waiting passively for guidance.

Another older student, who had lost most marks on a mock test due to confusion over operations, has begun double-checking her work and identifying mistakes independently. She finished her latest worksheet without any reminders to review her answers.

Local Spots for Tutoring

If you'd prefer not to have lessons at home, tutoring can also take place at a local library or at your child's school (with permission), like Kentville State School.
