Carramar's tutors include a veteran primary school teacher with 15+ years' classroom and special needs experience, a current secondary education student and school tutor, accomplished STEM undergraduates with high ATARs and university awards, Kumon-trained maths educators, youth mentors, netball coaches, peer leaders, and passionate volunteers skilled at inspiring K–12 learners across academic and creative fields.
I had a Maths tutor for my son in year 10. It was the best thing I ever did for his progress. Kamran was polite,courteous, on time and thorough at all times and I was given regular feedback. Bradley's grades went from a B to A and he is less anxious about sitting a maths exam now.Marie, Carramar
Year 9 student Islay focused on calculating probability for events in random experiments and revising mean, mode, median, and range using Year 9 Statistics and Probability test questions.
Another Year 9 student worked through surface area and volume problems involving cuboids and cubes, including Naplan-style assessment tasks and classwork on Venn diagrams.
For Year 10, study with Emily included Pythagoras' Theorem practice as well as developing clear summary notes to support understanding of key trigonometric relationships.
A Year 9 student's algebra work showed missing steps and incomplete working, making it hard to spot where mistakes occurred; as a tutor noted, "he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors."
In Year 11 Maths, one student lost marks on probability trees by adding instead of multiplying, but the issue wasn't content—it was misreading multi-step questions and not breaking down information.
A Year 8 learner relied heavily on reassurance rather than reviewing feedback or checking answers independently.
For a Year 4 maths student, unclear note-taking (small writing, uneven lines) made revision harder after lessons.
A tutor in Carramar recently noticed a big shift with one high school student who, after struggling to expand double and triple brackets, was confidently completing these problems on her own by the end of their session.
Another win came from a Year 7 student who used to claim he "knew how" to solve maths questions but would get stuck when explaining his thinking; now he identifies both his strengths and areas that need work before tackling tasks.
Meanwhile, a younger primary student who previously hesitated with money problems was able to count different notes independently and even chose new strategies for working out totals without prompting.
