Inside KureelpaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 Ryan developed a dinner menu as part of a maths assignment, focusing on real-life applications of place value and working with decimals.

In Year 10, one student worked through trigonometry and bearings problems using diagrams to clarify angle relationships, while another tackled algebraic equations and complex questions involving both familiar and unfamiliar scenarios in preparation for upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 Engineering student was urged to "find a way of doing all the processes without relying heavily on the resources available at the school," as too much dependence limited initiative during design and prototyping tasks.

In Year 8 Science, motivation flagged mid-assignment—effort trailed off before attempting challenging questions, so reports stayed incomplete.

A Year 9 Maths session revealed missed opportunities to work through more complex percentage problems; the tutor noted that independent problem-solving wasn't attempted until prompted.

Meanwhile, one Year 4 English lesson showed untidy handwriting and skipped lines, making feedback harder to apply and slowing progress through writing tasks.

Recent Achievements

One Kureelpa tutor noted a big change in a Year 10 student who previously hesitated to ask questions—this week, he actually stopped mid-task to clarify something about rearranging algebraic equations, instead of guessing and moving on.

In a recent high school session, another student who'd struggled with staying focused during assignments managed to work diligently through her biology report draft without needing prompts or reminders.

Meanwhile, a younger primary learner who often rushed spelling is now pausing to check for mistakes and corrects them before being prompted—he finished his writing task with all words self-corrected this time.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are extremely happy with our tutor Neema. He has been so encouraging for Sophie. She is feeling more confident already.

Eleena says he is great, he gives her homework sheets and he is very patient and explains everything she said.

We've only had 2 sessions so far but Deanna is already going really well. The girls are starting to get some benefit.

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 Nambour Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Blackall Range Independent School.
