Inside Forest LakeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 Alexis worked on word problems involving multiplication, division, and addition/subtraction, with a focus on applying these operations to her homework tasks.

In Year 10, Sarah revised logarithms and practised applying the laws of logarithms to solve equations.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Daniel completed an assignment covering exponentials and logarithms by checking calculations and reviewing responses from previous tests for accuracy.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 English, a student showed improvement in reading fluency but often rushed through comprehension tasks—skipping ahead led to missing key points in the text, as one tutor observed.

In Year 11 General Maths, another student skipped lines of working when solving algebra and log problems; this made it hard to track errors and slowed down progress.

A Year 7 science student arrived without completed homework, making it difficult to build on prior lessons.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner relied heavily on finger counting for subtraction, which slowed her pace during timed activities and dented her confidence when facing new material.

Recent Achievements

One Forest Lake tutor noticed a Year 10 student who previously hesitated with trigonometry now tackling questions independently and even explaining her working out step by step.

In a senior chemistry session, a student who once needed heavy scaffolding has started leading discussions, using her own research to guide the lesson and confidently outlining her assignment structure.

Meanwhile, during a primary maths session, a younger learner who used to mix up the hour and minute hands on an analog clock ended the lesson reading time accurately without prompting and grouped numbers independently for addition tasks.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Yes Daisy is a good tutor and seems to work great with the younger children.  I was very happy with her for David.

I've not actually met Tevita myself but both Ashleigh and my husband Adam have nothing but good things to say about him.  Ashleigh is very happy with his tutoring so far and seems to have a better understanding of the maths subjects she is doing.

We are very impressed with Jason and Scott enjoys the sessions with him which is great. Thanks.

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 Inala Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Forest Lake State High School.
