As a busy family, having the convenience of a tutor come into the house has made it so much easier for us to commit to weekly tutoring. Our tutor is on time and has been helpful for my daughter understanding maths concepts that were challenging her.

Inside Box HillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Jamie revised linear functions by identifying x and y axes, finding intercepts, and calculating gradients before plotting coordinates on graphs.

In Year 8, Priya focused on angles in parallel lines, using diagrams to solve for unknown values and reviewing types of angles from term content.

For a Year 9 session, Daniel tackled statistics by constructing frequency tables and bar graphs, then calculated mean, median, mode, and explored box-and-whisker plots to interpret data visually.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student in algebra avoided showing full working when finding gradients from two points—she skipped steps in equations, which made it hard to spot calculation errors.

In a senior statistics session, incomplete homework on box-and-whisker plots left key gaps; the student hesitated during IQR questions.

A Year 6 student's written work was messy and lacked clear layout in long division, leading to repeated confusion with remainders.

Meanwhile, one primary learner struggled to focus during word problem tasks and guessed answers rather than writing solutions—a rushed approach that led to unfinished revision sheets by lesson's end.

Recent Achievements

One Box Hill tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to hesitate with graph sketching now confidently draws accurate line graphs from just the equation, no prompting needed.

In a recent high school session, another student who previously second-guessed herself with linear equations was able to recall lesson objectives and solve for unknowns without pausing or asking for help.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who struggled with simplifying fractions finally managed to use long division independently by the end of their lesson—after starting out unsure, he worked through several problems on his own and got them right.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We could not be happier with Mandar he is very pleasant to deal with, always on time and very good with the Khai, Piper and Chase.

Connor was great and has put Indigo on a great pathway for working independently with her maths.

Kerry helped Ella with her confidence and she did really well with her math test. Her scores have been going up.

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 Blackburn Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Our Lady of Sion College.
