Excellent Tutor very kind and always explained things thoroughly.Khalida
Year 5 student Shaan worked on consolidating fractions and decimals, using visual models to clarify tricky parts.
For Year 8, Noah reviewed linear equations and practiced interpreting different types of algebraic expressions from recent classwork.
Meanwhile, Year 9 student Emily tackled probability concepts by solving worded problems and also revised Pythagoras' theorem through targeted practice questions.
A Year 8 student tackling worded algebra questions often missed multi-part instructions—"she answered only the first part of two-step problems," as noted—which meant incomplete solutions even when her calculations were correct.
In Year 10, a student preparing for geometry tests left key formula notes unfinished, making it harder to apply methods consistently across topics like area and composite shapes.
Meanwhile, a senior student in Year 12 encountered time pressure during probability tests; the rush to finish led to skipped notations and missed marks.
After setbacks like these, confidence noticeably dipped during revision sessions.
One Kangaroo Ground tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 10 student who used to get stuck on algebraic equations—after revisiting earlier mistakes, she now tackles the majority of algebra problems without prompting and outlines where her errors are.
Another high schooler, who had previously hesitated to ask for clarification, has started raising specific questions about tricky geometry tasks during sessions, leading to clearer understanding of angles and composite shapes.
Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who struggled with spelling is now catching subtle errors independently in his homework and confidently inferring correct spellings for unfamiliar words.
We have all had the experience of a "bad teacher" and we know it's not pleasant. Often the teacher is simply a bad match for that particular student rather than being a "bad teacher" in general but in either case the student has a serious problem. This is why many parents contact us for a private tutor - their child just can't "get it" when their teacher is teaching.
It's incredible how one explanation results in more confusion whereas another results in that "aha" feeling we all love so much! It is really a matter of getting the "right" tutor and not the "best" one. We see this every day in our work. A tutor might have hundreds of hours of experience and might have received dozens of testimonials from students, however, even such a tutor doesn't click with all students. Every tutor gets bad feedback sometimes. It's all about getting the right fit and this is what we do!
We will organise a 1-on-1 maths tutor in Kangaroo Ground to come to your home at a time of your choosing. They will be a local Kangaroo Ground maths tutor so scheduling lessons will be easy. Also, no booking fees, no minimum terms, no cancellation costs, no nonsense! And here's the best thing: your first lesson is a trial. So if you feel that the tutor wasn't a good fit, we'll organise someone else. It's our Good Fit Guarantee.
