We are really happy with Sophia, she's a great role model and helped my daughter's confidence and understanding of maths improve.Rowena
Year 5 student Emily revised addition and subtraction of fractions using visual aids, and practised converting between fractions and decimals.
Year 9 student Olivia worked through trigonometric relations, focusing on solving for unknown sides and angles in right-angled triangles as well as simplifying expressions involving sin(x) and cos(x).
Meanwhile, Year 10 student Liam focused on factorisation of quadratics and completed take-home assessment preparation by breaking down worded problems into algebraic equations.
Inconsistent back-checking on worded maths problems led to repeated errors in simpler content for a Year 10 student; as the tutor noted, "back checking was inconsistent leading to a few mistakes."
A Year 8 English student's paragraphs were disorganised and relied heavily on familiar phrases, making arguments harder to follow and less convincing.
A Year 3 learner avoided showing workings for basic multiplication and time calculations, often getting stuck when asked to explain reasoning aloud.
A senior student hesitated to attempt unfamiliar coordinate geometry questions without support, slowing their progress through exam-style tasks.
A tutor in Mount Keira noticed Remy, a high school student, now asks clarifying questions whenever he's unsure—whereas he previously hesitated and often pressed on without checking his understanding.
In English, Sebastien has shifted from repeating phrases in essays to purposefully editing for concise language after realising the impact of varied vocabulary; this was a big change from earlier drafts that were unfocused.
Meanwhile, Emily (Year 7) used to struggle with adding fractions but recently completed multi-fraction problems independently and even tackled algebraic expressions ahead of her class content.
We have all had the experience of a "bad teacher" and we know it's not pleasant. Often the teacher is simply a bad match for that particular student rather than being a "bad teacher" in general but in either case the student has a serious problem. This is why many parents contact us for a private tutor - their child just can't "get it" when their teacher is teaching.
It's incredible how one explanation results in more confusion whereas another results in that "aha" feeling we all love so much! It is really a matter of getting the "right" tutor and not the "best" one. We see this every day in our work. A tutor might have hundreds of hours of experience and might have received dozens of testimonials from students, however, even such a tutor doesn't click with all students. Every tutor gets bad feedback sometimes. It's all about getting the right fit and this is what we do!
We will organise a 1-on-1 maths tutor in Mount Keira to come to your home at a time of your choosing. They will be a local Mount Keira maths tutor so scheduling lessons will be easy. Also, no booking fees, no minimum terms, no cancellation costs, no nonsense! And here's the best thing: your first lesson is a trial.
