Local Reviews

Since the v first session with Radu, we were all totally hooked! He is not just the BEST tutor but the most amazing person. Radu has the ability to calmly install confidence into his students and ensure that they fully understand all the concepts, not just learn them. He is kind, professional and a honest joy to have around ??

Inside PlainlandTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Emily focused on overtime pay, penalty rates, and order of operations, including sharing her reflections on PSMT assessment challenges.

Year 8 student Jasmine practised graphing linear equations and revisited simultaneous equations to strengthen algebra skills.

For Year 10, Jacob reviewed bivariate data analysis by interpreting scatter plots and explored using Excel for predicting trends as part of his PSMT assessment preparation.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10, one student's exam preparation was held back by incomplete revision notes—"I had to keep checking that she is recording these," the tutor observed after a lesson where memory alone was relied on instead of structured note-taking.

In Year 12, missed or unfinished homework meant practice with PSMT assessments was limited, so new strategies for autonomous work are now needed.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student struggled to recall division steps without written working, leading to confusion in calculating means.

When notebooks are forgotten (Year 8), feedback can't be checked, and learning from mistakes gets delayed.

Recent Achievements

One Plainland tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to skip writing out maths solutions is now carefully showing each step on paper, making her thinking much clearer during sessions.

In Year 11, Emily—who previously lost nearly all marks on a mock test due to confusion between operations—is now double-checking her work and catching errors herself, especially with algebra and proportions.

Another high schooler, Ivy, recently tackled practice tax calculations independently after needing help before; she finished the set without prompting and even explained her reasoning out loud as she worked through the problems.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are delighted with Dexter. She and Carly get along very well and she makes the tutoring process seamless and pleasant. Carly is responding very well to Dexter and they've already and good progress.

We have been very happy with Tako and feel she has really assisted our children to gain greater confidence with their math work and to work through math steps carefully, which was our key goal. We have also been impressed with the organisation of the tutoring through your services.

I spoke to you a couple of weeks ago about a tutor for my son Gabriele. You organised for Monica to come to the house and she is beyond a perfect fit. Gabriele was thrilled about the lesson, even though he was nervous at first, and can't wait until his next session, so thank you!

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 Laidley Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Faith Lutheran College - Plainland.
