Inside Hamlyn HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Zoe practised converting between fractions and decimals using visual aids, then tackled multi-digit subtraction with regrouping.

In Year 10, Jack focused on applying the chain rule for differentiation and worked through finding gradients and maximum/minimum points from graphs.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Mia reviewed unit circle trigonometry, including exact values for special angles, before discussing key exam paper questions to build confidence in problem-solving.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student in Maths, when faced with complex equations involving rearranging terms, often practiced only familiar types and avoided less comfortable formats; as one tutor noted, "he needed more practice specifically with rearranging equations." This led to hesitation on unfamiliar problems during revision.

In Year 8, another student preparing for exams tended to guess answers instead of fully working through multi-step division questions, reducing their exposure to key methods and leaving gaps in understanding.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 learner was praised for speech drafting but struggled to group similar arguments, resulting in repetitive writing and unclear points during presentations.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Hamlyn Heights noticed a Year 11 student who had previously struggled with rearranging equations is now confidently working through exam-style problems independently, no longer pausing to check each step.

In Year 9, a student who often hesitated to ask for help has begun actively discussing how to build logical arguments into her English speech and drafting key points without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who found two-digit addition slow is now completing these sums much faster during sessions, tackling new problems with noticeably more focus than before.

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 Geelong West Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Western Heights Secondary College.
