Impressive I am happy with how easy it was to find a maths tutor for my 16 year old grandson & to have someone here within the week was fantastic ? Corey is getting so well with Vinny after only 3 sessions he wants him to help him till the end of the year to go from a D+ to at least a B Thank you ?Beth Curry
Year 4 student Scarlett focused on identifying Greek and Latin roots in words and practiced using prefixes and suffixes in sentences.
Year 11 Chemistry student Aimee revised stoichiometry calculations, including mole-mass conversions, and tackled practice exam questions on equilibrium and organic chemistry concepts.
Meanwhile, Year 12 Biology student Charli worked through content on the adaptive immune system by answering targeted short-answer questions and recapped CRISPR-Cas9 gene technology to reinforce her understanding.
A Year 10 student, Aimee, often became overwhelmed by multi-step chemistry questions, sometimes "overcomplicating the nature of some questions," as one tutor observed. This led her to miss marks on SACs when she didn't break problems into smaller parts or revisit previous mistakes.
In Year 3 English, Scarlett struggled to transfer her ideas onto paper, hesitating to start writing due to self-doubt; this stalled progress on creative assignments.
For a senior biology student, Charli's revision focused mainly on familiar content—she avoided less comfortable topics like immune system terminology—resulting in patchy recall during practice exams and slower improvement.
One Taroona tutor noticed Aimee, a senior student, now tackles unfamiliar chemistry topics before lessons and comes prepared with specific questions—a big shift from waiting for guidance.
In a recent session, she applied new problem-solving strategies to an equilibrium question she'd struggled with previously and got it right without prompting.
Charli, another high schooler, has started flagging areas of confusion on her own and now regularly draws diagrams to test her understanding before seeking help.
Meanwhile, Zane in Year 7 read a complex article aloud fluently and paraphrased its main points in his own words after asking for definitions he wasn't sure about.
