James has started very promisingly with Daniel which is great and I think even in the short space of time they have been together James is beginning to feel more confident with Daniel and his Maths in general.Glen, Brighton
Year 4 student Spencer worked on understanding fractions by exploring halves, quarters, and eighths, and used number lines to see how these relate.
For Year 10, Ollie focused on coordinate geometry skills such as finding the gradient of a line using two points and determining linear equations from graphs.
Meanwhile, Alice in Year 12 reviewed matrix methods including transition matrices and financial modelling with compound interest rates, tackling exam-style problems to prepare for upcoming assessments.
A Year 12 student lost marks on SAC extended response questions by not thoroughly reading the questions, leading to incomplete answers—"needs to take more time to read the questions thoroughly," a tutor noted.
In Year 11, another student showed stress during live log graph exercises and initially hesitated to work through problems aloud; practice in real-time helped reduce anxiety.
A Year 7 learner sometimes avoided writing out algebra steps, which hid calculation errors until review.
Meanwhile, a Grade 2 child often struggled with attention during numeracy activities, requiring frequent redirection before tackling multi-step place value tasks.
A tutor in Balaclava noted that one Year 11 student, Alice, has started coming to sessions with her own process for matrix multiplication and now asks for help only with the toughest questions—she used to rely on step-by-step guidance throughout.
In Year 8 maths, Leo was previously hesitant to engage but recently followed a complex lesson about collecting like terms and even paid close attention during explanations, something he struggled with before.
Meanwhile, a younger student, Lara, has begun preparing thoughtful questions ahead of each session rather than waiting passively for guidance; last week she independently solved several semi-circle identification problems.
Sooner or later, during high school or at college level, most students end up needing some form of biology knowledge. And it doesn't come easily - learning science and biology, in particular, definitely takes some getting used to.
There are many nuances to learning biology, and many students figure it out too late to help them with their grades. Working with great biology tutors in Balaclava, it's something we've seen time and time again.
Learning biology is cumulative, you can't really skip any steps because the concepts are intricately interconnected. Before you can take on complex concepts and processes, you need to understand the basics. With the help of a tutor most students find it easier to learn how to use drawings and diagrams, read with purpose, utilize lab notes
and use the knowledge in new situations so it really sticks.

All we need to get things started is to have a chat with you. We figure out what kind of support your child needs and organise one-on-one biology tutoring at your home. There are no extra fees - just a simple hourly rate.
