I believe it would be to clearly identify where the student is lacking and how best to tackle that specific weakness. Then from there take it one step at a time till the student is comfortable enough to increase the pace. The key is to subtly increase the pace such that they wont notice or get overwhelmed. Given my education and occupation, I have…

By making learning fun, the student will have an easier time learning. I try to find the most effective way to…

Inside Southern RiverTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student James reviewed the Cartesian plane and tackled algebraic concepts, including plotting points and working with linear equations.

In Year 6, Olivia focused on identifying rules in number sequences and practiced dividing fractions, with extra attention to converting between measurement units.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Sarah strengthened her understanding of operations with fractions and place value, then briefly explored Roman numerals and multiplication strategies for numbers ending in zero.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 Mathematics, a student left the semester review homework incomplete and showed hesitancy when tackling short answer questions, with one tutor noting, "homework: complete semester review (short answers)." This led to less exposure to unfamiliar question types and reduced feedback opportunities.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student struggled with organisation—forgetting to submit word class homework on nouns, adjectives, and verbs.

In senior maths sessions (Year 11), skipping written steps during algebraic simplification made sign errors harder to spot; as observed: "needs more practice with dealing with negative/minus signs when solving problems." Missed steps lingered into later revision.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Southern River noticed a Year 10 student who had struggled with fractions is now completing worksheets on decimals independently and shows much more ease tackling new arithmetic topics.

In Year 11 maths, one student recently started asking clarifying questions about solving for area until each step made sense—a big shift from staying silent when confused.

Another win came from a Year 7 English session where the student, previously unsure about comprehension questions, began identifying exactly what each question was asking and could answer with far less prompting than before. Last week, she asked the tutor for a tougher reading passage.

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 Amherst Village Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Southern Grove Primary School.
