Claire is tutoring my son in year 11 maths methods and he is gaining a lot from the sessions. She is highly intelligent, concise, adaptable and friendly. Highly recommend.Angie, Reedy Creek
Year 6 student Will worked on multiplying and dividing fractions, as well as solving worded fraction problems using extension worksheets from school.
Year 11 student Jacob focused on binomial probability and cumulative density functions (cdf), including calculator techniques for normal distributions. In another lesson, Jacob also reviewed double derivatives and optimisation strategies for upcoming internal assessments, practising concavity and deriving techniques with exam-style questions.
In Year 8 maths, one student had not completed the assigned revision before a session, which meant time was spent reteaching content rather than consolidating skills for upcoming assessments.
In a recent Year 10 statistics assignment, the same student's written explanations lacked clear logical flow and did not consistently justify conclusions; "he needs to relate his research back to the main point or solution," as noted by a tutor.
For another student in senior maths, there was heavy reliance on calculators and formula sheets—this became apparent when unfamiliar algebraic rearrangements without aids led to confusion mid-exam.
One Reedy Creek tutor noticed a real shift with Jacob, a high schooler who used to struggle with calculator functions—he now independently applies log rules and converts questions into log form without prompting.
Will, also in high school, recently began showing his working for integer problems after hesitating to communicate his process last term; he's now much more thorough and accurate on assignments as a result.
In Year 5, Will tackled division with pro-numerals using a new strategy he discovered himself, overcoming earlier confusion independently by choosing an approach that worked for him.
Finding a suitable maths tutor for your child can be difficult. Where do you start? What do you look for? Experience? Personality? Someone local? Should they teach their own content or work on your child's current school work? How often should you have tutoring? How long should each session be? Is a particular time of the day more effective than other times?
So many questions, but, after years and years of experience, we can assure you there is no on-size-fits-all answer. Tuition is an individual matter. It's really about finding someone who is a good match for your specific situation. That means a good personality match + a teaching style that matches the student's learning style + a good balance between empathy and authoritativeness + many other things.
Unfortunately no tutor profile can tell you if the tutor will be a good match. You won't know that until you see them working together.
It usually doesn't take us more than a few days to organise a maths tutor in Reedy Creek. And, we really want you to love your tutor! That's why your first lesson works as a trial. Don't think the match is good? We'll organise someone else...
