Biology Tutor Clarkson, WA
The most important thing a student can get from a tutor is unconditional support, and students should be assured that they have the right to ask their tutors any questions they may have. Good interacting skills and the way i adapt to every kid is what I consider as my strength. As every individual is different, patience is very much important and…

Local Reviews

Harrison seems really good, he has reviewed and assessed Isaac's work this year, homework and test results. He is very clear on instructions and provided mini homework assignments so he can evaluate Isaac more and also gives him tips and advice at each session knowing what he will be covering that week at school.

Inside ConnollyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Noah focused on reading and writing large numbers up to the hundred thousands, practiced expanded notation, and worked on comparing and ordering numbers using terms like ascending and descending.

In Year 7, Mya revised place value through to the millions and developed mental strategies for addition and subtraction by partitioning numbers.

Meanwhile, Marissa in Year 8 concentrated on algebra skills, specifically collecting like terms with addition and subtraction, as well as revising indices in preparation for her upcoming test.

Recent Challenges

Several students in Connolly displayed process obstacles impacting progress.

For example, a Year 9 student's "school work book [was] very untidy with no structure or order," making it difficult to track errors and improvements; copying from the board without completing tasks led to gaps in understanding algebra.

In Year 8, one student needed reminders to avoid mental calculations—"the algorithms MUST be written and then answered using the given process"—as skipping working hid mistakes.

At Year 4 level, forgetting tables and division steps meant extra time spent relearning basics instead of advancing.

A Year 7 learner often left homework incomplete, slowing skill development between sessions.

Recent Achievements

One Connolly tutor saw a big shift in Mya, a high schooler who previously hesitated with algebra: she's now tackling tasks more independently, using a calculator to find the circumference of circles and editing her written work after guidance.

Marissa, also in high school, recently achieved 94% on a maths test—a jump from earlier sessions where tiredness or confusion would hold her back—and is now self-correcting when she mixes up indices and multiplication.

Meanwhile, Noah in Year 3 has started asking for help instead of guessing during reading tasks and uses a ruler as his own strategy to add and subtract without embarrassment.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I just wanted to let you know how very happy we are with Tianna's tutor, Josephine. Josephine is so bubbly, easy going, very patient and great at teaching Maths and making it fun to learn.   Tianna is quite taken with Josephine, has built a great rapport with her and has made huge progress with her algebra in the short while Josephine has been tutoring her. Josephine is definitely a great asset to your company and we are so happy she is Tianna's tutor

Compliments on the nice touch with the follow up. It comes across as very professional. In fact the whole process from my initial inquiry about getting some help for Jake, through to now has been very professional, informative and direct. Yes, things have been progressing well between Jake and his tutor. They formed a good rapport straight off the bat. Jake has made comment of his own free will how he is enjoying the support. That in itself is something - getting more than a grunt from a 16 yr old!

Tilly has been doing very well at school with her maths - she received an A on her report. She says she is far more confident. Thank you so much for providing us with an excellent tutor in Christy - it would be my pleasure to provide a reference any time. It has made a significant difference to our daughter's confidence.

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 Joondalup Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Connolly Primary School.
