Inside Mount RichonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Isabelle focused on trigonometry basics and solving quadratic equations, as well as revising exam papers to strengthen understanding.

In Year 10, Ethan worked through compound interest calculations and practiced applying the sine equation, using worked examples for clarity.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Sam tackled fraction multiplication and division before moving onto a brief introduction to quadratic equations and some hands-on geometry activities.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student struggled to keep their notes organised during geometry revision, which made it hard to track errors and slowed down correction—"it would be nice to have notes ready, we can discuss notes organisation next time."

In Year 11, one student did not complete their worksheet and left some homework unfinished, missing out on vital practice for multi-digit operations.

For a Year 10 learner, over-reliance on the calculator during algebra meant working steps were skipped; this caused repeated sign mistakes that weren't caught until late in the session.

Each of these habits led to confusion or lost learning time.

Recent Achievements

A Mount Richon tutor recently noticed that a Year 10 student, who had previously struggled with trigonometry, became visibly more comfortable after working through targeted practice and even finished the tougher ratio questions using a basketball analogy—something he couldn't do before.

In Year 8, another student who used to keep quiet during sessions now comes prepared with her own questions and isn't afraid to ask for clarification when stuck, showing real initiative compared to earlier lessons.

Meanwhile, a primary schooler surprised her tutor by remembering how to convert fractions to percentages weeks after their last session and volunteered to tackle new fraction problems without hesitation.

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 Armadale Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Armadale Senior High School.
