By doing this, it means a student is able to use problem-solving techniques in their study and in the classroom, rather than just encouraging rote learning.

Inside KotaraTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Julian revised faces, edges, and vertices of 3D shapes before moving on to addition and subtraction with both two-digit and larger numbers.

In Year 9, Olivia focused on probability using Venn diagrams and two-way tables, working through worded problems to build confidence.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Lucas practised financial mathematics by interpreting multi-step worded questions about compound interest and depreciation, including rearranging relevant equations for his upcoming topic test.

Recent Challenges

During Year 11 Chemistry sessions, one student struggled to interpret questions using formulas correctly—"review of tritation calculations" came up repeatedly.

A Year 8 student's test performance flagged weak time management; as a tutor observed, "we identified Julian's weakness's such as time management during tests."

In Year 3 maths, confusion over unit places and writing numbers beyond thousands meant extra effort went into reworking basic steps rather than building new skills.

For a senior student preparing for HSC Physics, shallow formal responses revealed that exam question depth was not being addressed, which became evident when trial results fell below expectations.

Recent Achievements

A Kotara tutor noticed a big shift with one high school student who used to get stuck on multi-step financial maths questions—now, he works through conversions and period changes on his own and even asks for harder problems.

Another secondary student has become much more thorough; instead of skipping steps when tackling worded probability questions, he now writes everything down and checks each stage, which led him to correctly solve problems he struggled with just weeks ago.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner who found shape names confusing at first can now confidently name all main 3D shapes without hesitation.

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 Charlestown Library, walyamayi—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kotara South Public School.
