Being able to teach to a student's pace is a very important skill for a tutor - moving too quickly means the student won't be able to understand the content, while moving too slowly will bore the student, meaning they won't put in an effort to learn. I also believe that the teaching style employed has to fit the student - I am able to assess the…

I think the most important thing is to teach them how to think in the correct way. For physics and science, understanding is much more important than remembering. Therefore, teaching them to think by themselves is very important for their future academic success. Also, personal interest is another important factor. Teachers should cultivate the…

Inside MacquarieTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Emily worked on visualising numbers with creative representations to boost addition speed and practiced small operations using cards.

In Year 8, Jacob focused on turning mixed numbers into improper fractions and did quick mental calculations for addition, subtraction, and multiplication.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Sophie tackled questions involving linear algebra by rearranging equations and working with fractions from her recent lessons.

Recent Challenges

In Year 3 mathematics, one student relied heavily on flashcards for times tables but found oral recall difficult; when asked "2 x 7" without visual aids, hesitation was noticeable. As a tutor noted, "she performs very well, almost instantly, when we use them, whereas if we're doing purely oral exercises, it is a bit harder."

Meanwhile, in Year 10 Maths Methods, incomplete homework (e.g., VCE 2006 Paper and CH2/CH6/CH16 questions) meant less exposure to exam-style problems and limited feedback opportunities.

In Year 12, messy note-taking left gaps in revision chapters—key ideas went unrecorded during complex differentiation practice.

Recent Achievements

One Macquarie tutor noticed a real shift with a Year 4 student who used to rely heavily on her fingers for basic maths, but after practicing verbal games and using flashcards, she now answers multiplication questions without counting out loud.

In a recent high school session, a Year 10 student who had previously struggled with index laws completed all related problems independently and even asked to try harder questions next time.

Another high schooler has started consistently finishing most of their assigned questions correctly during sessions—a big change from earlier lessons when they hesitated to attempt problems on their own.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Isabella likes the fact that Mina will give her Maths problems to work on to reinforce what she has learnt , rather than just explain concepts and move on. She feels that Mina makes sure that she UNDERSTANDS the concepts.

Chloe is fantastic. Jasmine enjoys the maths time in the way chloe has set it out. Jas has already made progress and chloe helps building her confidence. She is wonderful thank you so much.

Blake seems to enjoy his tutoring so far, as you said it can take a few lessons to really get settled.

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