A tutor can reinstill the lost confidence of a student towards a subject (such as math). Many times, whenever a student is slow to understand a concept in school, they are left behind as the schoolteachers are required to rush on syllabus causing the students to fail quizzes and ultimately losing hope or interest in the subject. Students are often…

Inside GillmanTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Olivia focused on mastering number properties and operations, working through textbook problems in preparation for her upcoming maths test.

In Year 11, Ethan tackled calculus concepts by solving first derivative questions using differentiation rules from Chapter 2 of his textbook and completed multiple practice problems.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Sienna reviewed applications of integration by going through practice questions to prepare for her assessment, ensuring she could confidently find areas under curves and solve applied problems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student left work until the last minute, making it hard to finish a research task thoughtfully; "Jaeda does get 'bored' if she doesn't find the information straight away," her tutor noted, so reading for key facts was rushed and incomplete.

In Year 8 Maths, another student lost their homework sheet and had not completed set questions—when asked about arithmetic basics, gaps appeared that slowed progress on new material.

For one primary learner, missing library books and distraction led to careless spelling errors during reading time, with extra mistakes slipping through unchecked.

Recent Achievements

One Gillman tutor noticed that a Year 11 student, Sienna, began preparing questions in advance for each session—something she hadn't done before—which helped her pinpoint and address gaps in her maths understanding.

In Year 10 English, Jaeda shifted from being quiet during lessons to actively offering suggestions for improving her narrative writing, even taking the lead on revising sections herself.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who used to hesitate when unsure about spelling started correcting mistakes independently after reviewing them with the tutor and now brings in her homework every week.

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 The Parks Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Joseph's School.
