Tutor Golden Gully, VIC
Aside from teaching academics, it is important that the tutor understands the student and gives advice on how to be a better student such as being motivated, confident, and of course to see the benefits of the education that they have access to.

Inside LockwoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Zane worked through linear equations and interpreting worded algebra problems, with a focus on step-by-step reasoning.

Year 8 student Ella practised writing research in her own words for English and applied the Pythagoras theorem to solve right-angled triangle questions.

Meanwhile, Year 5 student Sophie revised fractions by identifying equivalent values and representing them accurately on a number line using visual aids.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 maths, one student struggled to distinguish between addition and multiplication of fractions, as noted: "switching between addition and multiplication can be tricky," leading to repeated errors on homework.

In Year 11, a missed opportunity arose when a test wasn't available for review; this blocked targeted feedback and reflection on mistakes.

For a Year 4 learner, incomplete spelling homework meant key words weren't learned in time for class.

During Year 7 lessons, messy handwriting made it difficult to track working in multi-step problems—this slowed checking and increased frustration during revision sessions.

Recent Achievements

In Year 11 maths, Quinn had previously struggled with composite functions but now explains the steps confidently and even worked ahead of his class's curriculum during a session.

A Year 8 student who used to hesitate when faced with worded problems is now tackling them independently, actively recognising what information is needed before attempting a solution.

Meanwhile, one younger learner who was once reluctant to ask for help has started communicating clearly when she doesn't understand a concept—last week she raised her hand and asked for clarification rather than guessing.

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 Kangaroo Flat Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Lockwood Primary School.
