A tutor should illuminate the skills, information and methodology on which academic excellence is predicated, thus enabling students to undertake work with confidence and awareness. The communication of this guidance -- and the guidance itself -- should be tailored to the individual's own needs. I am perceptive, patient, and good at articulating…

Inside Scott CreekTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Lucas worked on applying the sine and cosine rules in trigonometry as well as solving worded probability questions.

For Year 10, Priya reviewed techniques for rearranging algebraic equations and practiced factorisation of polynomials, using graphing to reinforce connections between equations and their visual representations.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Noah focused on understanding compound interest calculations and explored real-world applications involving appreciation and mortgages.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 maths, a student often skipped showing working in algebra tasks, leading to errors that "should've been an A considering his understanding of the topic."

For a Year 10 assignment, incomplete explanations meant reasoning was unclear and lost marks in multi-step geometry proofs.

In Year 4, forgetting to write units on measurement questions resulted in confusion over final answers.

A Year 11 English student's paragraph structure remained underdeveloped; as noted, "needs to focus on the reflective aspect of the recount," which left their ideas disconnected and feedback unaddressed after drafts.

Recent Achievements

One Scott Creek tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to rush through exams and lose marks on "silly mistakes" now slowing down to double-check answers before moving on, especially with algebra questions.

In another session, a high schooler who previously hesitated to ask for clarification during lessons began pausing mid-problem to request help with tricky graph interpretation—a big shift from quietly guessing.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student showed real independence by switching between decimals and fractions without prompts, after struggling with conversions last term.

Last week, that same student finished all ten practice problems without any calculation errors.

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 Stirling Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Scott Creek Primary School.
