This connection is important for many reasons, not only to be a good tutor but to also be a confidant in times of crisis. In the past I have worked with children who had special needs. Being close to the student…

I believe tutoring is important for students to identify specific issues that may present themselves.

I believe I am a very enthusiastic and approachable person so students don't feel…

Local Reviews

Emily is enjoying her lessons with Najma. She is knowledgeable, friendly and able to engage with her students.
Alison

Inside Mount RiverviewTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Daniel worked on interpreting and creating stem-and-leaf plots, then practiced identifying the mean, median, and mode using small data sets.

In Year 8, Alexia focused on simplifying algebraic expressions by both multiplying and dividing terms as well as tackling worded problems involving ratios with fractions and decimals.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Mark revised financial maths by calculating taxable income and GST through worksheet practice to prepare for his upcoming assessment.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Maths, revision outside of lessons was often missed—this led to concepts like tax calculations and measurement bounds being forgotten by the next session.

As one tutor observed, "she still needs to work on calculating taxable income and Medicare levy to become more confident."

In Year 8, skipping regular review meant difficulty recalling methods for algebraic expressions; errors crept in when sign conventions weren't double-checked.

A Year 3 student's messy letter formation made it hard to distinguish between 'j' and 'i', causing hesitation during reading tasks.

These habits left students retracing old ground instead of moving forward with new material.

Recent Achievements

A Mount Riverview tutor noticed a Year 9 student who previously hesitated to ask for clarification now speaks up when stuck, especially during algebra lessons—she recently tackled dividing equations after expressing her confusion and then completed the task on her own.

In Year 10, another student moved from making errors in percentage calculations to accurately converting fractions and decimals into percentages using different strategies without prompting.

Meanwhile, a younger primary learner has shifted from guessing words when reading aloud to pausing and sounding out unfamiliar ones, showing patience where he used to rush through.

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 Blaxland Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Mount Riverview Public School.
