Inside AttwoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Alex focused on probability and fractions from Chapter 7, using practical examples to reinforce key fraction skills.

In Year 9, Maya worked through angle relationships and properties of geometrical figures, including a review of angles and practice with geometric diagrams.

For Year 11, Adam tackled language analysis by revising persuasive techniques, annotating articles, and practicing how to write effective analytical responses based on recent feedback.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student arrived at a lesson without their book, making it impossible to reference key texts or annotate effectively ("would have been beneficial if his books were brought to the lesson").

In Year 10, one student had not completed assigned homework before the next session, which slowed progress in mastering persuasive techniques.

A Year 8 learner was often distracted by unrelated topics and missed opportunities to direct their learning.

A primary school student continued relying on finger counting for multiplication instead of practicing recall—this delayed fluency during more complex fraction tasks and led to slower problem-solving in class.

Recent Achievements

An Attwood tutor noticed Marcus, a Year 8 student, shift from guessing to explaining his reasoning out loud while solving coordinate geometry problems—he now confidently maps points and talks through each step.

In Year 11 English, one student arrived having already annotated The Longest Memory and was able to link quotes across texts without prompting, showing new independence with comparative analysis.

Another high schooler took feedback on her oral presentation draft, pinpointed exactly where she needed to clarify ideas, and came back the next lesson with a revised outline ready for discussion.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are so happy and impressed with Pariese. She has already made a great rapport with Charlie, which was our initial concern. She is both both professional and engaging with an obvious passion for maths. She has given us feedback relating to Charlie's learning style and is active in finding strategies to suit him. The fact that he looks forward to his lesson, is a testament in itself. She is always punctual and happy to have a brief at the end of each session. I have spoken to Pariese about Charlie needing long term tutoring, to which she agreed.

Everything seems to be progressing well, Trai is asking questions which is good, he is quite happy to have the lessons I know its early days so we will wait and see

Everything is going well and Nayte likes Thilacsan. He has given Nayte some problems to work out during the week which he is doing.

Biology tutoring in Attwood

It's not hard to understand why students choose to learn biology. Numerous careers start by learning those fundamental principles in high school, and even if they don't pursue a career in a related field - the knowledge is invaluable for life. 

Knowing the basics can make a student's life easier, both in a personal and professional setting, yet even educators agree - biology is currently poorly covered in schools. So it comes as no surprise students often end up needing help to get ahead.

Biology Tutor Attwood

If you're looking for biology tutor in Attwood, we can help you out! It doesn't matter if it's test preparation or furthering their knowledge, tutors can show how to tackle all the information but also really get into the nitty-gritty.
