Inside SassafrasTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Daniel worked on multiplying larger numbers and times tables for speed, tackled area and perimeter using diagrams, and practiced simplifying fractions.

In Year 8, Tanya focused on identifying the main idea in comprehension texts and began writing Tanka poetry, while also exploring persuasive language techniques through brainstorming activities.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Vien refined essay planning by developing arguments for a practice English SAC and practiced making written responses more concise.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 mathematics, one student avoided harder algebra questions and repeatedly focused on familiar topics; as noted, "sometimes tries to avoid harder tasks and prioritises known topics," which slowed progress with new concepts.

In Year 11 English, another student's essay responses lacked original examples and critical thinking—she needed more time "to come up with a range of different and unique examples for each essay."

A senior student preparing for VCE struggled to recall older content under test conditions, making it difficult to apply the right techniques in complex exam questions. Forgotten methods resurfaced during revision sessions, creating last-minute stress before assessments.

Recent Achievements

One Sassafras tutor noticed that a Year 3 student, Tanya, who was initially shy about reading aloud, now volunteers to do so and is more willing to talk through her thinking when answering questions.

In Year 8 maths, Daniel used to hesitate on his times tables even when correct, but now works through multi-digit multiplication problems with much less prompting and can explain where he gets stuck instead of guessing.

Meanwhile, in VCE English, Tasia has started setting clearer goals for herself during essay planning and independently restructured her paragraphs for clarity by the end of the session.

Physics tutoring in Sassafras

Looking for a physics tutor in Sassafras? We can make it happen!

Learning science takes a lot of effort. Students not only need to know the content, but how they can use concepts, when they can use them and why it's the right approach in a given situation.

Scientific thinking isn't easily acquired, but the skills are useful across fields and many future careers are built on them. It's a fascinating field with many applications - that's why students choose to put in the time and learn it.

Most students manage to stay afloat or even excel at physics all on their own, they master most steps along the way. However, sooner or later everyone needs help.
