25.01.2022 Well done Abi, who not only took the initiative to just casually get Teachworks to change their ways, but also successfully surprised me with cookies and cream. #dentintheuniverse #changetheworld #thatshowwinningisdone #cookies&cream

24.01.2022 Melbourne Mums and Dads - this is for you!

23.01.2022 After everything 2020 has thrown at our students this year, knowing how to set up a learning space plays a vital part in their learning and motivation. In this week's blog post, TOTC tutor Dan breaks down what the main components of an effective study area and the key areas to pay attention.

23.01.2022 The final term for 2020 is beginning! Exam season is here! Over the coming weeks, the preparation of end of years exams begin. With HSC and VCE students, getting in as much study as possible for their final exams. But... it’s not just year 12 students, even the students in the lower years of high school or even Primary, will all be starting to take in as much as they can and be tested so that they can advance to the new year. Exams and tests are a common occurrence for stude...nts, but how can we as tutors help our students prepare effectively! As the year winds down, studying for exams can feel like a chore and procrastination is often. Resulting in many students cramming (to different extents) to fit in as much knowledge as possible before their exam. This week we thought Dan’s (TOTC Tutor) blog post ‘Exam Preparation: The Night Before an Exam’ would be perfect parents, students and tutors!

22.01.2022 Parents: share this with your partner, your children and their teachers. Tutors: share this with your families, your students and their teachers.

19.01.2022 Why is Algebra so hard? Ever have the thought in school ‘When am I ever going to need to know this?’ Emmanuel Schanzer’s aims to settle this question, making algebra relatable and understandable for students:... https://www.ted.com//emmanuel_schanzer_why_is_algebra_so_h

18.01.2022 ‘Why Schools Should Teach for the Real World’ - Ted Dinkersmith’s TED Talk provides a refreshing and insightful perspective on education and how we prepare our students for the real world. When reviewing the learning of our students, we focus on how they are doing (what grades were they getting?) and how much they are doing (were they buckling down and doing their homework?). Pretty straight forward right? But why not, WHAT they were doing let alone how is what they are doing... relates to real life? https://www.ted.com//ted_dintersmith_why_schools_should_te

17.01.2022 As Term 4 approaches, so does Exam Season. So to help you help you support your students prepare for their exams, this week's blog post is brought to you from our Managing Director, Stuart Adams. Stuart breaks down 5 simple, yet effective exam preparation strategies for the weeks leading up to an exam.

16.01.2022 Those difficult moments... Everyone has experienced these moments from time to time, where despite all the preparation in the world keeping a student engaged is trickier some days than others. As the blog post title suggests, this week's blog post gives us helpful tips how to help get through the tough times.

12.01.2022 We’re undergoing a few renovations at the moment. Not to the structure of the building, but the structure of our collective thinking. Turns out you not only have to explain less and ask more, but it’s the questions we ask ourselves which determine the thoughts, decisions and actions that send us one way or another. As of late, we’re going in better and better ways, more noticeable with each passing week; especially noticeable when the little markers and milestones are celebrated (which is the reason I’m doing this).

11.01.2022 Exams... They are a big part of school life for all students. As we approach the end of Term 3, many Senior Students are preparing for Trial exams and fine tuning their exam tacking strategies in preparation for their final HSC and VCE exams in the coming months. Dan's blog post 'Exam Performance: The End of Exam' is perfect for us to use as tutors and can be helpful to share these helpful tips with our students.

11.01.2022 With the disruptions to schooling and the switching between face to face and online lessons, keeping students focused and motivated has become an even trickier task. Capturing our their attention can have a major impact on their overall progress and motivation. That is why for this week's tutor blog post, we selected Chiara's 'Capturing Attention'.
