22.01.2022 Getting kids more involved in reading can be hard. But if you find something they're interested in sometimes that can be the key you're looking for. You could try finding a book that's been made into a movie and entice them with a movie night to watch the movie if they read the book first.

21.01.2022 Happy Easter Did the Easter Bunny find you?

21.01.2022 The purpose of tutoring should be to help students help themselves and guide them to the point where they are an independent learner and no longer need tutoring. This isn’t relating to their schoolwork either but when it comes to mindset too. Check out the other fabulous benefits of tutoring here too ---> https://learningboosters.com.au/why-get-tutoring-for-your-/

20.01.2022 We love feedback from our parents. Here's what Heidi has to say about her experience with me helping her child with her times tables: "I am very happy to recommend Zoe! We discovered our 9 year old was really struggling with her times tables during lockdown and contacted Zoe. She has only been working with my child for a few weeks and already we’ve noticed her confidence in maths has increased, she seems to really enjoy maths problems now. I am super impressed with Zoe’s appr...oach to teaching times tables especially as my child literally learnt one of them in 10 minutes and had it memorised. It’s such a weight off as a parent, to have a child really understanding and enjoying maths and I am pleased that working with Zoe is going to help set up the foundation for my child’s learning going forwards. Zoe liaises with my child’s teacher to ensure that the way she tutors is in line with what is happening at the school as well which is fantastic. My little girl tells me that she finds the sessions a lot of fun and looks forward to them every week!

19.01.2022 Sick of pulling teeth trying to find out how your child's day at school was? Some kids openly and willingly share every little bit down to she said this, and he said that, Whereas other kids it feels like you're pulling teeth just to find out whether they had a good day or bad day. Here's a great conversation starter idea... ask your child, "What was your favourite thing about school today?" rather than "how was school" and getting the common response of fine, good or even ...a grunt. Give that a go and see what responses you get and let us know below if you'd like to share.

19.01.2022 When a student works in a one on one environment with a tutor a relationship of trust is built that opens the learning pathways. A personalised program is developed for that student that is completely customised to that child and the way they learn best and at the pace they best respond to.

19.01.2022 Tag a friend who can relate to this. I remember when my child was young it really did feel like this some days.

19.01.2022 Check out my recent chat with new tutor Meagan, who's recently joined the Learning Boosters team.

18.01.2022 Tutoring has so many benefits. So many in fact I had to split this blog post in 2 but read on this month as I cover the following benefits: 1. Learning difficulties 2. One on one personalised attention 3. Builds study skills... 4. Increases understanding 5. Personalised and direct feedback 6. Increases knowledge 7. Improves listening and communication skills 8. A greater connection between teacher and learner 9. Increases motivation and desire to learn 10. Improves attitude toward a subject area 11. Improves questioning and thinking strategies 12. Enhances self paced and self directed learning Did you think there would be that many wonderful benefits for your child from tutoring? Just thinking there’s more to come next month too. Make a cuppa or pour a wine whichever you prefer and have a read now --> https://learningboosters.com.au/why-get-tutoring-for-your-/

14.01.2022 Today I finished up with some of my students. It is a happy sad day. I'm happy that they are feeling confident and ready to go on with their learning journey without me and Sad as they have been wonderful to work with. One grade 2 student gave me these flowers from his mum's garden with a beautifully handmade card. Thank you

14.01.2022 Isn't this the truth? We are our worst critics so if you see someone who looks like they may be struggling, tell them they are doing a GREAT job. You will make their day.

13.01.2022 What are your plans for the school holidays? I can't believe they're here already again, so pop your ideas below of fun things and see if we can help each other out with some new ideas.

13.01.2022 Are you thinking about engaging a tutor for your child? Weekly tutoring sessions can make a huge difference with your child’s schooling. Whether they’ve gotten behind at school due to sickness, due to COVID-19 schooling at home, or just need an extra helping hand. We all learn differently and discovering how your child works best will do wonders for their learning experience. Or having that extra bit of support in a safe environment or having some dedicated one on one support... can really make a difference to your child. If your child doesn't like to speak up in class to say they don't understand in case they're made fun of then a private one on one tutoring session will be perfect. Tutoring will help them to regain their confidence in a safe environment. I work with children and young people in Prep through to grade 8: Maths English Music Vocal coaching And Meagan works with students from years 9 onwards in: Modern and Ancient History for years 9+ Maths for years 9 - 11 Geology for years 9 - 11 Geography for years 9 - 11 Advanced English for years 11+ Reach out now via pm if you have any questions or would like to discuss working together. ~ Zoe.

12.01.2022 What are your thoughts?

12.01.2022 Our waitlist is now open for 2021 if your child is struggling at school and getting frustrated. And we all know 2020 has been a struggle for so many and all of the uncertainty and changes at school have made it very difficult. Tutoring is great for those kids that need a different approach to what they receive in the classroom. Whether it's: A different viewpoint... Extra attention A private one on one environment where they don't have to worry about asking questions in front of their peers. This in itself can be a big problem. Support and encouragement to work through the problems Tutoring is available in-person or online with Zoe or Meagan in: Maths English Advanced English Music Modern and Ancient History Geology Geography Send me a PM to join the waitlist now. ~Zoe.

08.01.2022 Another great benefit of tutoring is that it improves a child’s thinking. If a child is stuck on something then rather than giving them the answer the tutor helps them discover the answer themselves by asking open ended questions why didn’t that work, why do you think that answer wasn’t correct. This helps the student make connects between their ideas and evaluates the information critically by thinking and solving the problems themselves. Making a great skill when it com...es to the real world as they grow older. Want to know more?
