I believe that one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student, is to help them build confidence in their own academic abilities by supporting them in a way that reinforces their sense of self achievement. It is also important for a tutor to reinforce and support the student's classroom learning, beyond set homework and assignments…

The student being able to use study techniques that I have taught them on their own accord is what I would aim to achieve. My strengths as a tutor would have to be my…

This enables the students'…

My strength as a tutor is that I am a very…

Local Reviews

Kaylee has been helping my 9yr old son with his maths. I could see he was struggling with concepts, which was affecting his confidence. He's one of the youngest in his class, but I didn't want him to fall behind. He's only had three sessions so far, but already I can see a change in him. Would highly recommend Kaylee

Inside KoondoolaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Aiden focused on arithmetic and geometric sequences, building confidence with both recursive and explicit formulae and connecting these to linear functions.

Year 11 student Emily reviewed bivariate data, working through correlation coefficients, regression lines, and using residual plots to evaluate the effectiveness of least squares regression.

Meanwhile, Year 7 student Lucas practiced rearranging equations to solve for unknowns and applied BIMDAS to multi-step algebraic worded problems for better accuracy.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8, one student hesitated to write out their working in algebra, preferring mental calculations—"she said, 'I can do this in my head,' but got stuck when signs changed." This habit led to errors going unnoticed.

A Year 11 student avoided attempting complex finance questions and relied heavily on routines shown by the tutor rather than breaking down new problems independently.

In a Year 5 session, confusion about division with fractions meant steps were skipped or forgotten, causing repeated mistakes.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student struggled to distinguish between correlation and causation when interpreting data, leading to mislabelled variables during practice.

Recent Achievements

One Koondoola tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to hesitate when tackling statistics problems now breaking down questions into logical steps and distinguishing between correlation and causation on her own.

In another session, a Year 9 student—previously reliant on prompts—methodically checked their working for multi-step algebra tasks without being asked, even creating clear diagrams for 3D nets.

Meanwhile, in primary years, Jasmine moved from needing reminders to write out times tables to independently rearranging equations and identifying which terms to move first before solving, finishing the worksheet with minimal help.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We have been very happy with Pat. Harriet has definitely progressed well in her maths under Pats tutoring.

Martha is an extremely polite and professional young woman. Martha is pleasant to deal with and is always on time. Anna is comfortable with and has enjoyed her sessions with Martha and has confidence in Martha's ability to help her with Maths.

We have no doubt the extra tutoring with Mina got Jamison over the line for a solid band 6.

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 Girrawheen Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Roseworth Primary School.
