Tutoring is great with James. James is very patient and professional and is able to connect with my son which is usually the biggest hurdle.Sylvia
Year 4 student Jai practised **telling the time on an analogue clock**, using real-world scenarios and discussing how the 5 times tables connect to reading minutes, as well as exploring fractions in practical contexts like sharing pizza.
Year 8 student Alyssa worked on **solving worded questions about area and algebraic expressions** in preparation for her upcoming test, while also revisiting key skills with decimals and fractions.
Elysia, studying at TAFE (Year 10+), focused on applying **long division strategies to convert fractions to decimals** and practised simplifying complex fractions from her course workbook.
In Year 11 TAFE Maths, Elysia's inconsistent lesson attendance led to forgetting key processes like converting fractions to decimals; as a tutor noted, "with a month's gap between lessons, she had forgotten parts of the process and needed a full hour to review." This slowed progress towards her Dental Assistant pathway.
In Year 7–8, Alyssa sometimes skipped writing out working for worded questions, which made it harder to check answers and spot errors—she now finds underlining details and rechecking helpful.
Meanwhile, Treasure (Year 4) often guessed on Prodigy rather than carefully reading questions, resulting in avoidable mistakes and frustration with new concepts like Perimeter.
One Moppa tutor noticed Alyssa, a high school student, is now consistently writing down each step and double-checking her answers in Maths, rather than relying on mental calculations alone—this shift has really increased her accuracy when working with tricky fractions and algebra.
Elysia, also in high school, used to feel overwhelmed by multi-step processes like BODMAS but has started talking herself through each stage aloud and highlighting operations; she's now able to approach complex problems more independently.
Meanwhile, Tegan (primary) completed double the punctuation homework assigned and began correcting her own work for full stops without being prompted.
Everybody knows that Maths is supposed to be difficult. It requires thinking in a logical and structured manner and those worded problems, they're super hard! The thing is that it's all about having the right approach. Every student learns best in their own specific way but at school there is a one-size-fits-all approach. Some students fall behind, others just can't seem to achieve the success they want. What's the remedy? Private 1-on-1 home tutoring is certainly one workable solution. It's a tailored approach that you can customize to your specific needs whatever they may be.
