Inside NailsworthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Sophie practised division and focused on mastering the 8 times tables, with some attention given to properties of triangles.

Year 7 student Daniel explored index laws by working through multiplication and division of exponents, then moved on to understanding scientific notation in context.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Alex tackled trigonometry problems involving bearings and also worked through probability questions using tree diagrams for visual support.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student repeatedly arrived without having completed assigned homework, including multiplication revision and a maths assignment—one tutor noted, "she could not provide a valid excuse." This led to uncertainty in applying exponent logic and negative indices on tests.

In Year 5, one student avoided practising times tables outside sessions; when tested, she defaulted to finger-counting and hesitated after each step, asking if answers were correct.

A senior secondary student relied heavily on her graphic calculator for linear equations but struggled when asked to interpret or lay out solutions by hand, which masked errors until review time.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Nailsworth recently noticed a Year 10 student who used to struggle with abstract algebra now choosing more challenging textbook questions on her own and asking for clarification only after attempting them first.

Another high schooler, previously hesitant about calculus, started recognising where to use logarithm laws to solve derivative problems without prompting.

Meanwhile, a younger student who once relied heavily on times tables charts decided to tackle multiplication exercises independently this week, getting most answers right and showing real eagerness to try before checking her work.

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 Prospect Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Sports College South Australia - North Adelaide Football Club.
