Tatum is comfortable with Tim. He emails her questions before the lesson which helps her prepare. She has even helped fellow classmates with work that she has covered with “her tutor”

Inside SomersTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Mira reviewed long multiplication and simple division strategies, using step-by-step breakdowns to build confidence.

Year 8 student Lily worked on expanding and factorising quadratics as well as identifying the difference of perfect squares, focusing on grouping techniques for clarity.

For Year 11 student Zac, lessons covered sketching transformed trigonometric graphs and solving general solutions in trigonometry, alongside practice with chemistry concepts like Faraday's Law and electrolytic cells.

Recent Challenges

In Year 3 maths, Riley often attempted to do all working in his head, leading to lost steps and errors—"I encourage him to write down his working more often," a tutor noted after a fractions task.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student neglected homework outside sessions and struggled to retain previous knowledge, leaving key concepts unpractised for tests.

In VCE Chemistry, forgetting the data booklet's resources slowed progress during calculations.

A Year 9 student missed over a month of required schoolwork due to poor organization; falling behind meant extra pressure catching up instead of building new skills.

Recent Achievements

A Somers tutor noticed a real shift with a Year 9 student who used to guess answers in comprehension but now stops to re-read and self-correct before responding.

In Year 11 maths, another student who often struggled with errors during calculations has begun making significantly fewer mistakes, showing much more careful checking as she works through exam prep.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who previously hesitated with times tables is now tackling them independently and even attempted homework without prompting for the first time this term.

What they say about our tutoring

We are happy at this stage and Leyla is saying that she likes the way Zoe is teaching her. We are happy with Zoe as she is a very nice lady and very good teacher.

We are delighted with Dexter. She and Carly get along very well and she makes the tutoring process seamless and pleasant. Carly is responding very well to Dexter and they've already and good progress.

We have been very happy with Tako and feel she has really assisted our children to gain greater confidence with their math work and to work through math steps carefully, which was our key goal. We have also been impressed with the organisation of the tutoring through your services.

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 Phillip Island Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Somers Primary School.
