Local Reviews

James has been a great tutor from the very beginning. Very professional, and I can see my son actively engage in the lessons. I'm very confident that he'll feel far more confident going into his exams, and tackling Year 12 Maths Methods next year.

Inside St MarysTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Zara practised long division with remainders and revisited multiplication of larger numbers to build confidence.

For Year 8, Liam focused on expanding and factorising algebraic expressions, then created a formula sheet for area and volume as a study tool.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Aisha revised Pythagoras' theorem and explored examples of Pythagorean triples through targeted practice questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 algebra, skipping back-checking steps when solving complex equations led to repeated errors—"didn't check final answer against the question," as one tutor noted.

A Year 11 student working on trigonometry over-relied on their calculator for sine and cosine rules, which caused confusion when interpreting non-standard triangle diagrams.

In a Year 9 geometry session, messy formatting and unclear layout made it hard to spot where mistakes crept in while calculating angles with parallel lines.

For a Year 6 student tackling division with remainders, incomplete written working meant answers couldn't be traced or explained when asked during revision.

Recent Achievements

One St Marys tutor noticed a Year 8 student who used to hesitate with worded maths problems now confidently extracts key information and sketches diagrams on her own, making multi-step questions less daunting.

In Year 10, a student who struggled to remember index laws last term now applies them automatically without needing a reference sheet, even finishing all ten practice problems correctly in one session.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who found long multiplication overwhelming recently mastered a new technique and can now solve bigger numbers independently after just a few tries.

Biology tutoring in St Marys

Even if your child is doing fairly well in biology, with science there's always something new to master. Passing the exams or getting the grades they want is not a problem for most students, but what they sometimes miss is an opportunity to hone their learning skills.

Through science subjects, in particular, students gain transferable skills that are not only useful for other subjects but real-life problems as well. In reality, it's not just about the content, it's more about the way of thinking. Of course, exams and grades are important, but we've also found that students tend to react positively to tutors who show them these nuances in learning.
