Local Reviews

Angus arrives punctually and is always prepared with his reference notes. My son feels comfortable asking questions and Angus is doing a fabulous job consolidating learning and reinforcing some math principles in Math Methods and Specialist Maths. Angus is very patient. We appreciate his support in tutoring.

Inside HollywellTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Jack focused on multiplying tens and hundreds as well as division with decimals using targeted book exercises, plus some spelling practice.

In Year 10, Olivia reviewed trigonometry concepts—specifically applying the unit circle to solve problems—and moved on to advanced formulas like the reduction formula.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Riley prepared for an upcoming maths exam by working through surface area revision and practicing related problem-solving questions from a mock test.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 biology student struggled to organise notes for a content-heavy metabolism unit; flashcards were introduced, but "too much information on a single card" limited their usefulness.

In Year 10 maths, an incomplete homework task meant missed practice with volume equations before an upcoming exam.

A Year 9 student avoided writing out algebraic steps—"he tries to solve and calculate things in his mind without writing"—which led to persistent sign errors.

Meanwhile, a primary student left both the homework booklet and spelling words at school, making it difficult to reinforce learning routines at home that week.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Hollywell noticed Kirsty, a senior student, now independently draws on literary devices—like strong openers and dropping into conflict—to strengthen her creative writing, a big shift from earlier drafts where she struggled to engage the reader.

Meanwhile, Holly in Year 11 achieved A grades for both maths and biology assignments after applying feedback with far more precision than last term, showing real initiative by reaching out to teachers for extra guidance.

In primary, Jack volunteered to be timed on a compound words activity and finished it in under sixteen seconds—a new sign of self-driven learning he didn't show before.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Ranul has been fantastic. Ava seems to have really taken a liking to him which helps!

Matthew has become much happier to talk & often inform us about math problems & the confidence he has gained even at this early stage of being tutored is huge. Andrew has been a tremendous help so far.

We are very happy with Theodora and since the school year is coming to an end, we look forward to seeing her again in 2018.

Biology tutoring in Hollywell

It's not hard to understand why students choose to learn biology. Numerous careers start by learning those fundamental principles in high school, and even if they don't pursue a career in a related field - the knowledge is invaluable for life. 

Knowing the basics can make a student's life easier, both in a personal and professional setting, yet even educators agree - biology is currently poorly covered in schools. So it comes as no surprise students often end up needing help to get ahead.

Biology Tutor Hollywell

If you're looking for biology tutor in Hollywell, we can help you out! It doesn't matter if it's test preparation or furthering their knowledge, tutors can show how to tackle all the information but also really get into the nitty-gritty.
