Biology Tutor Madora Bay, WA
I had a really good tutor through year 11 and 12, helping me understand how important it is to make the students feel confident in themselves. I think the best way to do this is by creating a good relationship with them by providing a safe space to ask questions, focusing on what the students need and tutoring them in a way that helps each student…

I am so impressed with how Lynn and my daughter have started off strong. She seems to be understanding a lot more than we originally thought also I think that comes down to a focus aspect in the class room. Lynn will definatly be installing some confidence into my daughter to return to the class which we love.

Inside San RemoTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Scarlet worked on confidently counting to 100 and practising basic addition skills using number lines.

For Year 5, Cruz focused on building multiplication fact fluency and began applying long division strategies to solve problems involving hundreds divided by single-digit numbers.

Meanwhile, Year 6 lessons with Ethan included adding fractions and converting improper fractions into mixed numbers for real-world contexts.

Recent Challenges

In Year 3–4 maths, one student often avoided showing working in addition problems; as a tutor wrote, "struggling with neatness for adding" led to missed place values and confusion when reviewing errors.

Another pattern: forgetting homework or not practicing tables between sessions meant progress slowed in division and mental arithmetic.

In Year 5–6, lack of concentration became clear during lessons—after initial enthusiasm, attention drifted when tasks grew harder ("tended to tune out if things got a bit hard"), which left subtraction and fractions incomplete.

This reluctance to engage fully saw skills plateau before new topics could be tackled confidently.

Recent Achievements

One San Remo tutor noticed a big shift with Cruz, who started the session reluctant but later asked lots of relevant questions and managed to multiply large numbers—a turnaround from previous lessons where he'd been hesitant to try.

In another session, a high school student was able to identify problem elements independently in math tasks without prompting, showing new independence after often waiting for hints before.

Meanwhile, Scarlett had a breakthrough: after struggling with telling time, she now reads both hours and minutes accurately and even explained AM/PM distinctions while practicing on the training clock.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Hi, Ruhail has been great and his flexibility has helped enormously. He spent 3.5 hours with Casey last weekend as she had a test she was very concerned about. Casey did much better in her test than she would have done and we are already over the moon. Please pass on our thanks.

Yes, we are very pleased that Sophia likes Rebecca and the tutoring seems to be going well. Rebecca obviously has patience and takes the time to explain things so Sophia can follow them and work through the maths, which is exactly what we wanted. The problem with the school is they move along so fast that there is not enough practice time, and we (the parents) are not familiar with what they teach so we can't just help out quickly; we have to re-learn it ourselves first, and then we're probably not good at explaining clearly. That's why it is great having Rebecca who can obviously explain things in a way Sophia understands. The main thing is that Sophia sees herself as '˜no good at maths', but when something is explained so she understands it, she is very pleased when she can get the right answers. A lot of it is a confidence thing I think, and also her school maths teacher has been quite negative about her work; so hopefully the tutoring will rebuild some of Sophia's general confidence over time, which would be great. Sophia will never be a star at maths, but if she can just get passes instead of always negative marks and comments from school, we will be quite happy with that. Sophia is very good at English/Hums and art; maths is her weak area, and we are very pleased (and actually surprised) that she is sitting through an hour of maths tutoring each week without complaint. We did not know how it would go; we tried one other tutor a few months ago , a retired male maths teacher - and she hated it. So this time we are very happy.

So far so good with Tim. Tim is now tutoring both my kids and both are really happy with him. Results will show in the months to come. It is early days but we are very happy so far.

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 Lakelands Library and Community Centre—or at your child's school (with permission), like Oakwood Primary School.
