I think tutors have to have the appropriate amount of empathy to understand, not only the way they learn, but also their reason for learning.

This gives me an insight into where they…

Inside South YarraTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Jamie worked on comparing and simplifying fractions, as well as converting between fractions, percentages, and decimals using targeted worksheets.

In Year 7, Jonas revised algebraic expressions and practiced calculating the perimeter of both regular and irregular shapes, also tackling pattern recognition with visual aids.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Jamie focused on operations with negative numbers and explored probability through tree diagrams and statistics homework.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10, Tommaso sometimes rushed through surface area questions in geometry, forgetting to include the base, which led to incomplete answers—his tutor noted, "don't forget adding up the area of the base."

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student's small and unclear handwriting during algebra problems caused confusion, even for himself when reviewing work.

In Year 6 maths, Jamie hesitated on multi-step worded questions and often doubted her own working; this hesitation made it hard for her to check solutions confidently.

During a senior revision session, unfinished notes and missing formula sheets left one student unprepared for practice tests.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in South Yarra recently noticed Jamie, a high school student, moving from hesitancy with negative numbers to tackling calculations and multi-step equations involving negatives independently—a shift from needing frequent reminders just weeks ago.

Tommaso, also in high school, used to rely on prompts for statistics work but now finds Q1, median, and Q3 quickly and draws box plots accurately without help.

Meanwhile, Jonas in primary school surprised his tutor by not only distinguishing factors from multiples—something he struggled with before—but also simplifying fractions accurately by dividing common factors.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

The tuition is going very well - we love Sigrid and Sian has improved in her confidence and ability beyond our expectations.

Liam and Georgie liked Stephanie and found her explanations and teachings simple and easy to understand.  They seem to be very happy with her which is great after only 1 session each!

Thank you for the email. Alex is here now tutoring Sarah.  He is absolutely fantastic and has really helped her improve. We would like to stop the tutoring for now and see how Sarah goes in Term IV. If she finds anything difficult and requires another tutor I will contact you to arrange.

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 Prahran / Windsor Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Christ Church Grammar School.
