Love your tutor or it's free. Guaranteed.
The staff were very helpful - all the way from setting up through to the actual tutorials.. The tutor was also one of the best I've ever had for Math. He actually helped me understand how it works, not just memorise formulas.Aleksander
Year 4 student Murray worked on building his fluency with multiplication facts, especially the 9x tables, and practiced mental addition strategies to move away from finger counting.
Year 8 student Jalen focused on solving two-step algebraic equations involving expanding brackets, as well as practicing substitution into algebraic expressions and tackling questions with powers and square roots.
Meanwhile, Year 10 student Callum reviewed trigonometry topics including the sine and cosine rules using diagnostic exam questions, and also revised scientific notation and significant figures to prepare for upcoming assessments.
In Year 8 algebra, one student often forgot to expand the second term in brackets—"sometimes Jalen forgets to expand the 2nd term when expanding a single bracket"—which led to repeated errors on homework even after mastering the process in-session.
For a senior student, exam performance suffered due to pressure and unfamiliar worded problems; as noted, "he does feel the pressure in exams," resulting in mistakes not seen during practice.
Meanwhile, a primary student relied heavily on finger-counting for addition and was only confident with a few times tables, which slowed progress in multi-step calculations.
A recent Woody Point tutoring session saw Callum, a senior high school student, move from hesitancy to confidently solving sine and cosine rule problems he'd previously struggled with—by the end, he could tackle even the trickier examples independently.
In Year 8, Jalen has started catching his own mistakes in algebra; after making small errors on homework, he now checks his work more carefully and gets single-bracket equations correct without prompting.
Meanwhile, Murray in primary school used to count on his fingers for the 9 times tables but now recalls them quickly using memory tricks and is less reliant on finger counting.
All students need to go from struggling to catching up is the right kind of help at the right moment. The same goes for students who are on top of their assignments but never quite excel at science.
Students reach the next level when they work with someone who understands their needs, who’s available and honestly cares about their goal. That kind of support goes a long way, especially with chemistry, as it tends to be elusive and hard to master.
In most cases, that kind of help isn't available at school. Teachers already have a full classroom to manage and are generally swamped with tasks. Maybe you've already thought of finding a local Woody Point chemistry tutor for your child, but you didn't know where to start and what to look out for.
We can help.
This is what we do. We organise one-on-one tutoring in your home, at a time that's most convenient for you. You choose what the tutor covers and how often they come. Not quite sure what your child needs to learn? No need to worry, we'll figure it out.
We charge a simple hourly fee and last but not least, in case you don't like the first lesson - we consider it a trial and match you with another chemistry tutor in Woody Point.
We've seen it time and time again, all it takes for a student to start trying again is that one aha moment.
The right tutor can get your child there.
Give it a try!
