Year 3 student Ella practised **multiplication facts (especially 3x, 4x, and 6x tables)** using flash cards and games, worked on reading time to the nearest five minutes in both analogue and digital formats, and completed comprehension activities after reading short non-fiction texts.
Year 7 student Alex focused on **solving equations with unknowns on both sides** using step-by-step algebraic manipulation and reviewed key terminology in geometry through labelled diagrams.
For Year 8, Sophia tackled **writing analytical paragraphs for English essays** by breaking down topic sentences and supporting evidence, then revised ratios and percentage problems in maths with real-world examples.
Incomplete homework and lack of focus were frequent hurdles for Elsa (Years 3–6). On several occasions, such as one maths session where "she had trouble with the time questions… and was easily distracted," missing work led to confusion in new concepts.
In English, untidy written work—like forgetting to keep letters on the line or rushing sentences—made it harder to spot spelling errors and slowed progress in writing tasks.
Hesitation to try strategies like talking aloud or using pen and paper persisted: "She is still hesitant to try the strategies."
Distraction crept in often, especially during maths problem-solving or when reading unfamiliar words aloud.
A tutor in Tennyson noticed that Ella, a primary student who used to rush through her English tasks and make careless spelling mistakes, now slows down when writing and self-corrects her pronunciation—something she avoided before.
In recent high school sessions, one student who previously hesitated to answer maths questions has begun taking more risks, confidently tackling times tables without waiting for reassurance.
Another secondary student recently finished a creative writing piece independently after earlier relying heavily on joint planning, showing real initiative by choosing to finish the story solo.
With each chemistry lesson, there's more and more information. After a while, it gets harder and harder to pinpoint how it's all connected.
No wonder most students get overwhelmed and start memorising instead of understanding the concepts. Or worse, they just give up.
We've heard it time and time again, you’ve probably heard it too. Some students connect everything as they go, but some are just stuck. This kind of attitude can lead to poor grades, but it can also lead to a crack in your child's self-esteem.
So what can you do?
The truth is - everyone struggles. Some might get there easier or quicker, but everyone struggles at some point. We know that and the Tennyson chemistry tutors we work with know that, too.
All it takes is a bit of guidance by someone who's been there before. Someone who can foster the right attitude and study habits, but most importantly, someone who clicks with your child - a tutor who truly cares about your child's needs and goals.
That's what we do.
We find tutors and organise one-on-one chemistry tutoring in Tennyson, at your home or any other place that works for you.
There are no extra fees, just a simple hourly rate. You don't like the tutor? No need to worry, the first lesson comes as a risk-free trial and we find you a better match. Simple as that.
