For me, connection and knowledge are the most important thing you can provide for a student. Students will never learn if you are only "teaching" a student, but you also have to understand them by making a connection so you can strategies their learning style.

I feel it is a priority of the tutor to pass on their passion for learning and knowledge to their students.

Amber seems to be a good fit for Martin. Tutoring is going well!

Inside Alexandra HillsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Ethan worked on applications of derivatives, including finding tangent lines and graphing functions using derivative information.

Year 10 student Mia focused on bivariate data analysis and understanding Pearson's correlation coefficient, also practising note-taking for mathematical concepts.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Liam tackled linear graphs and completed revision tests to strengthen his grasp of algebraic relationships and graphical interpretation.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 Science, she needs to organise information a little bit better in his notes, making it harder to review for assessments and track key concepts.

A Year 11 student, when tackling proof by induction, still needed prompts with certain parts of the question; as one tutor observed, he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 English learner who understood 'imaginary' struggled to spell it and form sentences—reluctance to read outside class limited vocabulary growth.

In senior Physics, over-reliance on notes meant formulas weren't committed to memory during tests.

Recent Achievements

One Alexandra Hills tutor noticed a Year 11 student who, after previously struggling to spot weaknesses in her essays, is now independently identifying and fixing her own writing errors before being prompted.

In a recent high school maths session, another student who found logarithms confusing last term was able to confidently use the correct formula and solve challenging problems with minimal support.

Meanwhile, Paige in Year 3 has made tangible strides with spelling—last week she correctly spelled 8 out of 11 words (up from just 5) and now sounds out tricky syllables aloud to help herself spell new vocabulary during lessons.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Jack is definitely gaining more confidence and Winyue is a very calming and her gentleness with him is a perfect match!

We are very happy with the service, the professionalism of Malmi and the feedback and report. I have recommended you as a tutoring service to families that I see as clients.

Thanks very much and particularly to Maya. She is a really good tutor and a great influence on Chloe.

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 Capalaba Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Anthony's School.
