The lesson yesterday went well. Manuela's feedback was very happy. She enjoyed the lesson and thinks that Roshini is very polite and calm.Dalia
Year 8 student Yillen focused on applying Pythagoras' Theorem in right-angled triangles and practiced finding perimeters and areas, using diagrams to clarify each step.
Year 9 student Mia worked through rearranging formulas to find unknown dimensions in area questions and calculated the areas of composite shapes by breaking them down into familiar figures.
Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ava reviewed trigonometry concepts for an upcoming test, including solving for unknown sides and angles using SOHCAHTOA and the Pythagorean theorem.
In Year 8 Maths, as one tutor noted, "she needed reminders to write all her working out," especially when rearranging SOHCAHTOA equations—omitting steps made sign errors harder to spot and correct.
For a Year 11 student, forgotten calculators during lessons on tax calculations meant the session slowed down and key practice was missed.
A Year 10 lesson saw late arrival and distraction: "I had to almost give him 80% of the answers this lesson just to keep him engaged enough to try."
In English (Year 9), minimal written material limited feedback opportunities on essays using PETAL structure.
One Phegans Bay tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 10 student who used to hesitate when tackling homework—this week, he openly asked for help with school assignments and even requested extra challenging problems, something he'd avoided before.
In a high school session, another student who struggled with Pythagoras' Theorem picked up the foundations quickly and managed to solve several right-angle triangle questions independently by lesson's end.
Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who'd been quiet at first started confidently explaining her reasoning out loud after just a few sessions.
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!
