JJ has been fabulous so far, he has just the right disposition for Annabelle, he is patient, calm and informative and Annabelle has already developed new strategies and enjoying maths more than when she first started.Simone
Year 12 Aimee focused on revising Organic Chemistry for her upcoming SAC, tackling practice exam questions and consolidating IUPAC naming skills.
Year 12 Alissa worked through Food Chemistry revision, discussing content she felt less confident about and practising exam-style questions on topics like equilibrium and thermochemical equations.
Meanwhile, Year 12 Charli reviewed immune system concepts from Unit 4 Biology, applying her understanding to multiple choice and short answer questions while also recapping CRISPR-Cas9 gene technology.
In Year 10 English, Scarlett sometimes rushed through reading aloud, skipping words which can alter the meaning of what she is reading, as a tutor noted. This led to confusion in sentence structure exercises and difficulty forming detailed sentences with unfamiliar vocabulary.
Meanwhile, Aimee (Year 12 Chemistry) often became overwhelmed by complex exam questions, occasionally missing marks for not labelling units or breaking problems into manageable steps. When stressed by lengthy equations or data interpretation tasks, her written workings lacked detail and accuracy, causing repeated small errors during SAC preparation.
One Fern Tree tutor noticed Aimee, a high school student, now regularly speaks up when something doesn't make sense—she used to hesitate but has begun raising questions during chemistry sessions and even attempted new types of problems before they're covered in class.
Charli, also in high school, has started highlighting her weaker areas at the start of lessons so they can be tackled directly; this shift from passively working through tasks to active self-reflection is making her understanding much deeper.
Meanwhile, Cameron (Year 7) recently wrote a creative story with enthusiasm and quickly took on feedback about grammar, showing more independence than in earlier weeks.
Why would you ever need to know about combustion, corrosion, and electrochemical processes? Most students wonder about that too, especially if they don't plan on going into science.
Chemistry can seem abstract, learning about elements and matter, how equilibrium occurs and how chemical systems react. No wonder students get discouraged.
All it takes for a student to go from a mild distaste for chemistry to understanding what is scribbled in the textbook is someone to point out what to avoid and where to put in that extra hour of revision. It's like with any problem situation in schooling and even in their personal life, students need to know about using effective strategies. Then all you need is persistence, staying on task until you reach your goal.
If your child is struggling in school, chances are you've already thought about finding a tutor. Be it passing a test, getting your child’s grade up or preparing for a career in science, we work with local Fern Tree chemistry tutors who can get your child to stand on their own two feet. This is how we do it.
We organise one-on-one lessons at your home, at a time that fits your schedule. There are no hidden fees, just a simple hourly rate.
Not happy with the first lesson? No need to worry, it comes as a risk-free trial and we find you another local chemistry tutor in Fern Tree who is a better match.
