Tutors can be a great source of inspiration to a student to do more and learn more. The knowledge that we could share to a student would be the greatest gift anyone could share as an individual or as a tutor. So, if at least one student is benefited with my knowledge and inspired to do more than just the ordinary that could be the greatest impact…

From my experience, the desire to learn and succeed must come from within, but once that feeling is there it is the tutor's responsibility to cultivate and grow this passion and to translate it into continuous improvement. Hence, one of the most important things that a tutor can do is understand the student's needs and to meet those needs in a…

To boost confidence and motivation. I believe that you cannot force a student to learn, but you can guide them to do their best. If the student does not wish to learn, there is not much I can do to improve their grades. But, if the students are highly motivated and willing to learn, even if their grades are below average, they can rapidly improve…

Inside RivervaleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Isla focused on times tables recall and worked through measurement activities using practical examples.

For Year 8, Jack revised Pythagoras' theorem and tackled trigonometry questions to find unknown angles.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Zoe prepared for her maths test by practicing simultaneous equations using both substitution and elimination methods, then drew linear graphs to consolidate understanding.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student, when revising simultaneous equations, "relied on a calculator for basic steps," making it harder to spot small errors in working.

In Year 10 Chemistry, notes were incomplete and key cycle steps were missing—meaning last-minute revision was less effective before assessments.

A senior student practicing circle proofs often left side labels unmatched, which caused confusion during exams.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student struggled to convert mm to cm due to skipping over the reference table provided in her workbook.

When confidence dropped after setbacks, another high schooler hesitated to attempt harder worded problems alone.

Recent Achievements

One Rivervale tutor noticed a Year 11 student who'd previously been hesitant with trigonometry now tackling exam-style questions without help, even choosing the correct rule for triangle similarity on her own.

Another high school student moved from confusion about algebraic rearrangement to solving for x independently and quickly, showing real initiative by checking her answers before asking for feedback.

In Year 7, a student who often guessed at graphing tasks last term is now confidently identifying bar graph features and explaining them aloud—last session she labelled all axes accurately without any prompting.

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 Ruth Faulkner Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Rivervale Primary School.
