I think it's incredibly important to be patient. People learn at their own paces and for those who struggle more than others, patience can help foster an environment where they feel comfortable expressing a lack of understanding in a concept and allows them to make the most of each tutoring session. It is also important to create lesson plans that…

This may include encouraging students to discover different study strategies and asking them open-ended questions to promote independent thinking. Being open to a student's feedback and insights is of high importance,…

Inside QueenscliffTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Toren practised multiplication with more than two digits using lattice multiplication and worked independently on one-digit multiplication with carrying.

Year 6 student Morgan focused on correcting decimal worksheets for improved accuracy and then moved to advanced multiplication, applying lattice methods to problems involving larger numbers.

Meanwhile, Year 4 student Charlie completed NAPLAN maths practice sheets, reviewing skills in number sense and basic operations as part of homework support.

Recent Challenges

A Year 3 student repeatedly mixed up addition and subtraction when working independently, especially during homework involving borrowing—"her homework shows that she confuses addition and subtraction during independent work."

In upper primary maths, another struggled to systematically show all steps in long division and fraction simplification; she often relied on intuition but missed key algorithmic steps, making errors harder to find.

At the high school level, one Year 10 student skimmed through exam questions too quickly without fully extracting what was being asked—this led to misinterpreting multi-step problems in algebra and losing marks despite knowing the concepts.

Recent Achievements

One Queenscliff tutor noted a big shift with a Year 8 student who used to rush through fraction questions and miss key steps; now, after patient practice, she's pausing to check her work and caught her own error on an equivalent fractions problem before moving on.

A Year 10 student has started asking for clarification in algebra sessions instead of staying quiet when confused—a real change from his earlier reluctance to engage. Started asking for clarification is a meaningful step forward in his confidence and participation.

In Year 5 maths, one student initially found lattice multiplication overwhelming but is now working independently through each step and completed her latest worksheet without any 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 Northern Beaches Library Service—or at your child's school (with permission), like Stella Maris College.
