Teaching students to direct their motivations towards their goals, rather than solely their grades, can be just as important for their future as anything an english tutor…

Inside Plympton ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Finn practised adding and subtracting multi-digit numbers and worked through word problems involving these operations.

In Year 9, James revised circular motion in Physics—clarifying centripetal force—and reviewed key statistics concepts such as mean, median, and mode using his school test materials.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Una focused on preparing for upcoming assessments by tackling break-even analysis and capital gains calculations in Maths, while also reviewing atomic theory basics in Chemistry.

Recent Challenges

During a Year 8 session, Mavis left her math booklet at home, which meant time was lost re-explaining previously covered concepts.

In Year 11 Chemistry, another struggled to recall technical terms—she could explain ideas but couldn't name them, as in "the reproduce at different times one" instead of 'temporal isolation'.

A senior student avoided answering questions when unsure; this habit led to gaps during practice tests.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student focused only on easy times tables and avoided harder multiplication facts, which slowed progress in mixed-operation problems.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Plympton Park noticed a real shift for Mavis, who used to hesitate with reading aloud but recently volunteered to read the comprehension text herself and tackled tricky words without prompting—she even asked about unfamiliar terms instead of skipping them.

In Year 11 Chemistry, Una has started catching her own calculation mistakes and correcting them on the spot, which is a big change from needing step-by-step guidance before.

Another high school session saw Chloe independently solving several algebra problems after previously relying on hints for each step; she finished by working through two questions entirely on her own.

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 Marion Mobile Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Forbes Primary School.
