Shubh tutored my son Travis in Term 4 for maths. Travis is in Year 7. We saw a remarkable improvement in Travis' overall attitude to school, not just in maths and we beleive Shubh played a big part in this. Thank you Shubh

Inside Cobaki LakesTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Willow focused on **operations with fractions**, including simplifying, converting between mixed numbers and improper fractions, and solving written fraction problems.

In Year 9, Jeremy worked through **Pythagoras' theorem** and measurement geometry, reviewing exam topics such as area, perimeter, and volume of shapes.

For Year 10, Mia covered **algebra fundamentals**—like solving one-variable equations—while also practising how to interpret scatterplots and identify relationships in data sets using real examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student came to a session underprepared for advanced exam questions, having only revised basic content—"I wasn't ready for the in-depth problems," they admitted, which meant time was spent re-covering fundamentals instead of tackling challenging tasks.

In Year 10 algebra, another student's working out was messy and skipped steps, making it difficult to spot sign errors ("needs to improve ability to explain working out").

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student avoided written responses and relied heavily on verbal answers during technology issues; as noted, "to improve would be to test her spelling and grammar by writing her answers down."

Recent Achievements

One Cobaki Lakes tutor noticed Jeremy, a high school student, now reliably checks his algebra work for errors and corrects them himself—when they first started, he'd rush through problems and miss key steps.

Willow, also in high school, recently completed a Grade 7 fractions worksheet independently after struggling with the topic earlier in the term; she's begun converting fractions without prompting to make calculations easier.

Meanwhile, Bella in primary has started proofreading her written responses on her own rather than handing them straight in—last session, she caught and fixed three grammar mistakes before submitting her paragraph.

What they say about our tutoring

Venessa was great and we will be asking her to come back again in the new year.

Our daughter seems to respond well to Adam and even though it's still early days she is much more confident! Thanks

The tutoring sessions with Dominic are going very well. He has certainly helped Kailiana to gain confidence and skills in maths, while keeping a calm, friendly, and easy-going mood for the tutoring sessions. As any 8 year old does, Kailiana can get distracted from time to time, but Dominic has always taken this in stride, and been very creative in engaging with Kailiana in order to retain her attention. For example, there was one instance where she jumped up out of nowhere and decided to feed her goldfish in the middle of them trying to solve some questions about volume. Once she got back to the table Dominic asked her about her fish, and then changed the objects in the question they were solving to fish. He effectively got her back on track and engaged her attention in a warm and gentle way. Kailiana looks forward to her tutoring sessions, with is another testament to the good work Dominic has been doing with her.

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 Elanora Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Augustine's Parish Primary School.
