Inspire them to be better. I'm great when it comes to learning about a student and getting them to be comfortable with the way I teach. This builds a sense of confidence where the student can slowly open to what help they really require. Although it is hard talking about my weaknesses as a tutor, its one way to learn. As we all know a good…

Leah, Mount Gravatt

Inside Upper Mount GravattTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Shani focused on probability and data analysis, including interpreting simple statistics and practicing basic probability scenarios.

In Year 10, Lara worked through the discriminant in quadratic equations and reviewed linear equations, reinforcing her algebra skills with targeted practice questions.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Savio tackled arithmetic and geometric sequences by building recurrence models from information given and practiced rearranging algebraic equations using a step-by-step approach.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 Maths, incomplete homework became a pattern—one student "didn't finish the homework I gave," making it harder to build confidence with algebraic conversions.

In Year 10, a student shared she "finds it difficult to motivate herself to study for exams and usually procrastinates until the last minute," which left her rushed during practice sessions and less able to handle time pressure.

A Year 11 student relied on mental calculations in equations, skipping written steps; as noted, "it's better to write down the working steps out than doing mental maths." This made tracing errors nearly impossible under exam conditions.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Upper Mount Gravatt noticed that a Year 10 student, who previously struggled to organise her thoughts for English assignments, began catching her own run-on sentences and correcting them independently by the end of their session.

In Year 8 maths, one student who used to quietly guess at answers started openly asking questions whenever unsure—showing real initiative that hadn't been there before.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student managed to finish all target questions on time for the first time after weeks of needing reminders, handing in her completed worksheet without any prompting.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Compliments on the nice touch with the follow up. It comes across as very professional. In fact the whole process from my initial inquiry about getting some help for Jake, through to now has been very professional, informative and direct. Yes, things have been progressing well between Jake and his tutor. They formed a good rapport straight off the bat. Jake has made comment of his own free will how he is enjoying the support. That in itself is something - getting more than a grunt from a 16 yr old!

Tilly has been doing very well at school with her maths - she received an A on her report. She says she is far more confident. Thank you so much for providing us with an excellent tutor in Christy - it would be my pleasure to provide a reference any time. It has made a significant difference to our daughter's confidence.

We are very pleased with the progress of the tutorials with Aprinder. Dean is engaging really well with him and already seems more confident.  We hope his apparent progress will be reflected in both a more positive attitude toward maths that is enduring and also in his maths results at school.

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 Garden City Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Upper Mount Gravatt State School.
