The sole priority of the tutor is to do anything they can to continually further the skills and success of their student. However this has to be achieved in a reasonable way.

Throughout high school, I would help many of my colleagues…

Inside MaylandsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Sarah worked on simplifying algebraic expressions and solving equations for unknowns, using practice problems to strengthen confidence.

In Year 9, Daniel focused on converting between fractions, decimals, and percentages as well as finding the area of composite shapes by breaking them into parts.

For Year 10, Lily reviewed calculations involving box and whisker plots alongside key probability concepts, applying these skills to real data scenarios.

Recent Challenges

In Year 4 mathematics, one student became distracted during multi-step calculation tasks—by the final questions, focus drifted and errors increased, especially with addition and subtraction over ten.

"He skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors," a tutor noted for a Year 8 lesson: incomplete working meant mistakes went unnoticed until review.

In senior years (Year 10), homework was sometimes left unfinished when confusion arose; these unattempted problems limited exposure to essential problem-solving strategies.

Handwriting issues also emerged—misreading their own workings caused setbacks during geometry revision, leading to unnecessary frustration and wasted time searching for lost logic mid-task.

Recent Achievements

A Maylands tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to avoid checking his answers now takes time to double-check clues and fix mistakes independently, showing real initiative during problem-solving.

In a recent high school session, another student who previously hesitated with algebraic equations made a breakthrough—speaking aloud their reasoning and picking up factorising much more quickly than before.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who often lost focus was able to study for twenty minutes without complaint and converted tricky fractions accurately, finally finishing all assigned problems in one sitting for the first time.

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 Maylands Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Bold Park Community School - Maylands.
