Inside KagaruTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Alex focused on displaying data, particularly constructing and interpreting histograms, and shared specific maths concepts she found challenging for targeted support.

In Year 10, revision with Ben centred on trigonometry—applying formulas to solve right-angled triangle problems—alongside reviewing exam-style questions.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Alex worked through classifying scatterplots and explored standard deviation by manually using the formula in tables and calculators, plus discussed a mini-assignment analysing fuel consumption efficiency.

Recent Challenges

In Year 12, one student narrowly missed passing a recent test due to small process errors—forgetting units and struggling with calculator use for standard deviation. "She said she struggled with using her calculator," noted the tutor, leading to lost marks despite understanding the content.

A Year 9 student hesitated to write out steps when solving equations, causing confusion with negatives and messy working that made checking answers harder.

In Year 7, difficulty breaking down worded problems led to feeling stuck at the start; extra time was spent figuring out what each question wanted before any calculations could begin.

Recent Achievements

A Kagaru tutor noticed that a Year 10 student who used to get stuck on substitution questions now solves most problems independently with only a little guidance and has begun using feedback to improve his next answers.

In a recent session, a Year 12 student identified her own errors in a practice exam—something she hesitated to attempt previously—and then worked through several worded problems independently by applying strategies learned over the term.

Meanwhile, a primary school student who once struggled with fractions was able to confidently find lowest common denominators and add or subtract fractions without prompting.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I met Angeline for the first time on Monday this week- She is bright and seems to have lots of resources and experience already.

We are very happy with the lovely Sarah and more importantly, Annie is enjoying her time with her.

We are very happy with Simon. Ryan has taken to the tutoring really well. One on one has really helped as he cannot get distracted by other kids and Simon keeps him on his toes and listening attentively.

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 Jimboomba Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Flagstone State Community College.
