Ancient History Tutor Littlehampton, SA
Help them build confidence to believe they can succeed. Being able to explain topic areas in different ways, using plain language to help them understand. I also strongly believe in teaching students core study skills to build structure to their problem…

So happy with the encouragement and enthusiasm of the tutor with my daughter. I feel very reassured that she can find the missing key to understanding in her maths.

Inside Biggs FlatTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 Sophie worked on simplifying fractions and converting between mixed numbers and improper fractions, as well as measuring angles with a protractor.

Year 5 Annabelle completed a school worksheet on probability and practiced creating graphs from tables and interpreting data.

For Jay in Year 3, sessions focused on improving fluency with the 3 and 4 times tables and using playing card games to reinforce division concepts.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student repeatedly rushed through multi-step algebra, skipping working and misreading key parts—"she kept jumping to the answer without checking what was being asked," as a tutor noted.

In Year 4 maths, another student lost motivation after encountering a dense worded problem; they gave up quickly, overwhelmed by too much information on the page.

A Year 10 student struggled with messy written work in graphing tasks, which made it hard to spot calculation errors or line up coordinates.

After a tiring day, one Year 5 learner left homework incomplete until prompted several times, feeling reluctant but eventually finishing under guidance.

Recent Achievements

One Biggs Flat tutor noticed Jay, a high school student, now regularly spots and corrects his own mistakes during division—something he used to overlook. He also showed real persistence by pushing through challenging problems without giving up.

In another session, Sophie, also in high school, created her own revision "cheat sheet" before the lesson started—her first time taking that kind of initiative without prompting.

Meanwhile, Annabelle in Year 6 surprised her tutor by confidently tackling percentage calculations on her own after initially hesitating; she divided by 100 and multiplied out the answers independently.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

At this stage we are very happy. Nick likes Tharaka and his overall attitude to maths has changed. He is quite happy to give things a go. His confidence is building.

Suparna is lovely and very patient and Sitota is very happy with her. I think it will take a good few months before we see any progress with Sitota considering her learning difficulties. All positive and we are moving forward though

Mo is a lovely girl and Ashleigh seems to be benefitting a great deal from her tutoring sessions with her. Ashleigh is fairly motivated and I'm sure by the time exams come around there will be a noticeable difference in her capabilities. Mo and Ashleigh interact quite well and Ashleigh is much more confident about what she is doing after her sessions. All in all, at this stage we couldn't be happier with the way things are going.

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 Mount Barker Community Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Echunga Primary and Preschool.
