Just wanted to let you know that we had our first lesson with Dillon last Wednesday and first impressions of him are fabulous. What a lovely guy, very confident and friendly with a lovely approach and a great, firm handshake! She enjoyed meeting Dillon so on wards and upwards from here.Samantha
Year 4 student Cameron focused on adverbs and simple sentence structure, finishing the lesson by incorporating adverbs into a creative writing piece.
In Year 12 Chemistry, Aimee reviewed mole-mass and mass-mole stoichiometry conversions using her teacher's worksheets, then practised exam-style questions on organic chemistry nomenclature and application.
Charli, also in Year 12 Biology, worked through innate and adaptive immune system content she had missed at school by answering targeted multiple choice questions to reinforce understanding.
In Year 10 English, Scarlett often rushed her reading and skipped words aloud, leading to confusion with sentence structure tasks—"she tends to skip words which can alter the meaning of what she is reading."
When writing creative pieces, hesitation and self-doubt delayed her starting; listing ideas as dot points helped break this barrier.
In VCE Chemistry, Aimee struggled with organizing multi-step problems under pressure and sometimes neglected careful unit labelling in calculations, resulting in preventable errors.
Regular revision was suggested for both girls but follow-up homework was at times incomplete or not revisited between sessions.
One Rokeby tutor recently saw Aimee, a senior student, start tackling new chemistry questions before they'd even been covered at school—she's now confidently applying lesson strategies to unfamiliar problems and asking for clarification when needed, instead of waiting passively.
Charli, in Year 11 Biology, has begun flagging her own weak spots during sessions and uses diagrams she creates herself to test her understanding without notes—a big shift from previously relying on prompts.
Meanwhile, Zane demonstrated more independence by paraphrasing the main points of a challenging article aloud and directly asking for definitions whenever he hit an unfamiliar word.
