Due to Nakita's tutor doing an amazing job last year, Nakita has not needed his skills for the beginning of this year, comprehending and understanding the maths content at school extremely well.allison, Petrie
Year 4 student Poppy explored scale factors and calculated the volume of cylinders and rectangular prisms using visual examples.
In Year 10, Tasha practised finding the surface area of various shapes and reviewed exam topics with a focus on applying formulas accurately.
For Year 11, Ella worked through her in-class maths assignment, clarifying key steps for each question and addressing areas she found confusing to boost her understanding.
A Year 11 student often rushed through differentiation and trigonometry, leading to small mistakes between dollar and cent coins as noted by the tutor.
In Year 7, one student left most worded maths problems blank on a worksheet, hesitating to attempt unless completely sure—a pattern that carried into test revision.
For a Year 9 assignment, another relied on "guessing equations to see if it works," instead of building methodical strategies or using class notes for guidance.
Meanwhile, in primary maths, several students avoided writing their working out, which hid small errors and made it hard to spot where understanding broke down during subtraction or time calculations.
One Petrie tutor noticed that a Year 11 student, Kiana, arrived with a list of tricky maths questions she'd struggled with in class—by the end of their session, she worked through every one independently and even finished early.
In another session, Clancey (Year 9) started unsure about rearranging equations but, after some guided practice, was able to solve them on his own without needing help.
Meanwhile, Tamia in Year 4 tackled her reading comprehension story solo and answered almost all follow-up questions correctly, remembering key details and going back to check when unsure.
Learning biology is cumulative. Like learning mathematics or other science subjects - it's important to understand the basics before you can tackle complex concepts.
While most students have the right idea on how to approach studying biology, they also need a little push to achieve their goals. We've found that all it takes is the right kind of guidance at the right time.
The local biology tutor in Petrie we work with are there to assist so that passing and excelling at biology doesn't seem like such a hurdle. What we look for is someone who can adjust to your child's needs, who can observe their study habits and guide them through the learning process. So what does that mean exactly?
For instance, most students know they should go over past exams and take notes. What students also sometimes do is fixate on individual questions too much and even try to memorise them. While they know what they should be doing, they might not know how to do it. This is why tutoring is invaluable.
All we need to get things started is to have a chat with you to figure out what your child needs. We organise one-on-one biology tutoring in Petrie, at your home. There are no extra fees, just a simple hourly rate.
And what if you don't like the tutor? No worries, it happens from time to time and we understand that! That's why the first lesson comes as a risk-free trial.
