The most important things a tutor can do for a student are provide academic guidance, human connection, and consistency, and the combination of these factors can potentially reinvent a class, subject, or school more broadly for a young learner.

Inside YallambieTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Olivia focused on algebraic techniques using Chapter 4 of the Edrolo textbook and also worked through transposing between mixed and improper fractions.

Year 8 student Sam practised for an upcoming test on probability and statistical analysis, including real-world examples to consolidate understanding.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Zoe concentrated on Cartesian coordinates from Chapter 9 of the Edrolo textbook and explored applications by plotting points on coordinate grids.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student's incomplete homework is making it difficult to build on core algebra skills—"he will not progress any further in Mathematics unless he tends to his homework."

In Year 7, poor attention span led to missed steps when handling decimals and multiplication tables, with focus drifting mid-question.

For a senior student, as noted, "the complete disregard for time and lack of participation severely hampered the potential learning outcomes" during geometry revision.

Messy handwriting and reluctance to read or write have also slowed comprehension in upper primary lessons; requests for neater work are frequent before clarity improves.

Recent Achievements

One Yallambie tutor noticed a Year 10 student who, after initially struggling with fraction addition, pushed through and now solves algebraic equations using fractions—something he found intimidating at first.

In a recent session, two brothers in Year 8 went from distracted to enthusiastically competing against each other to answer percentage questions, showing new drive and focus compared to earlier lessons.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who used to hesitate on three-digit addition now completes these sums without error, finishing an entire set of problems correctly by himself.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Gary is doing a great job and Emilee is really appreciative of their time together.

Carl has enjoyed working with both his tutors this year and is well prepared for his VCE math methods exams. Having a personal tutor, even for a student like Carl who is already achieving excellent academic results, has helped relieve some of the stress of VCE and enabled him to sort out areas he wanted to work on with more depth.

Bailey is really happy with Jackie, and so are we, he enjoys their sessions and I can see he is understanding much better.  Jackie is very courteous and punctual.

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 Watsonia Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Streeton Primary School.
