Local Reviews

The lesson went well with Alex. He had a lovely approach with Kieran, patient and methodical. For the more complex questions he was prompt to come back to Kieran by email with some suggested formula when he didn't have the solutions on the spot, which was much appreciated.

Inside South GeelongTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Eliz focused on double-digit multiplication and long division, then moved into understanding factors through practical exercises.

For Year 8, James tackled linear equations using the y = mx + c format and progressed to solving simultaneous equations by both substitution and elimination methods.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Olivia worked intensively on calculus topics such as applying the chain rule and quotient rule for differentiation, alongside finding tangents and stationary points in exam-style questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 mathematics, one student often forgot to bring her books and calculator home, which meant her tutor couldn't track progress on Pythagoras' Theorem or help with specific classroom gaps.

A Year 11 student tackling calculus was observed "skipping a step or going too quickly," especially when anti-differentiating, leading to missed marks on problems with fractions.

For a younger learner in Year 3 English, hesitance in reading aloud led to flat intonation—pauses at commas and question inflections were sometimes missed.

When materials are missing or routines are unsettled, targeted feedback is delayed and small misunderstandings can snowball into test anxiety.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in South Geelong noticed a Year 11 student who had previously hesitated with differentiation now methodically eliminates incorrect answers on multiple choice problems and confidently uses her calculator to check gradients—an impressive step up from earlier sessions.

Another high school student reported feeling ahead in class this year, having worked on algebra topics during tutoring before they were covered at school, and recently compiled all her notes independently for an upcoming test.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who used to second-guess herself when reading aloud now finishes passages smoothly and even asks for more challenging words each session.

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 Chilwell Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Geelong South Primary School.
