Local Reviews

We had Claire coming in to give tutoring to our daughter last Friday. It went very well and we were very happy with the result.
William, Carina Heights

Inside Carina HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Jackson practised timestables for recall and worked on place value, also spending time improving handwriting.

In Year 9, Ella revised rearranging algebraic expressions to make a pronumeral the subject and substituted values into these expressions, extending briefly to cross multiplication.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Riley focused on financial mathematics topics, including compound interest and interpreting real-world scenarios from the next unit in line with QCAA guidelines.

Recent Challenges

Often distracted, rushing both handwriting and mental calculations; "he drifted in and out of concentration, had a lot of energy and needed to move his body a bit." This led to mixed-up numbers or missing steps during multiplication and division tasks.

In Year 10 science, not consistently reviewing feedback meant errors lingered in balancing chemical equations across sessions.

For a senior English student, incomplete drafts and delays seeking teacher comments slowed assignment progress—one note read: "Waiting on feedback for assignment."

When unfamiliar worded maths questions appeared (Year 9), hesitation set in until explicit prompting was given.

Recent Achievements

One Carina Heights tutor noticed a Year 10 student who, after typically second-guessing himself and relying on constant help, managed to complete several linear equations independently for the first time—he only checked in once before confidently working through unfamiliar problems alone.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student mastered mole conversions and demonstrated solid understanding of stoichiometry after struggling with these calculations last term.

For a younger learner, reading aloud was previously met with hesitation; now she tackles longer passages smoothly and even volunteers to read new sections without prompting.

Maths tutoring in Carina Heights
