About Carolyn

I have a background in the Biological Sciences, but have been drawn to tutoring kids in Maths over the last 10 years.

I have experience with helping children with learning difficulties and anxiety with their learning. I always aim to build a good rapport with the student, as often Maths is the last thing a student wants to do and motivation is key to achieving a result.

About the lesson

I am passionate about teaching kids Maths. I believe Maths provides a perfect platform to teach children to think, to ask questions, to admit they don't understand and to feel OK about it.....regardless of their aptitude for Maths. I really enjoy sussing out how a child thinks and gently steering them in a direction to make things easier.

As an adjunct to my teaching I use the Maths Online program. This way I can quickly target the specific problem and take a child back to where they started to go wrong. This creates a very solid foundation. I am very experienced in teaching kids who are struggling. I have a maths brain but more importantly I am becoming more and more aware of how a non-maths brain functions. I address the downward spiral that happens when kids miss vital understanding and then get stressed about not understanding the current work. This can impact self-esteem and overall self confidence. Sometimes one or 2 sessions are enough to clear up small misconceptions, and that can be the difference between success and failure.

The skills of being able to identify and communicate what it is that you don't understand, to take the help you need in order that you understand and then to apply your knowledge to slightly different situations are life long skills that can be applied to many situations in life. I am happy to sit with a student and identify what strategies they are using to tackle problems and suggest a range of different strategies that may be more useful in tackling the problem. I find that once these options are explained to kids and they realise that they have been doing things the hard way and a light bulb goes on in their head.

Years 5 to 10 Maths naturally set a student up for the VCE years. If this knowledge is shaky then success will be very difficult in the VCE years. I thoroughly enjoy helping kids firm up this base knowledge so they can be off to a good start in their VCE.

I work online usually via Skype but can of course use other platforms. I charge $50 per hour for online and face-to-face tutoring. I am offering the maths online program to my students for $50 for the rest of the year. This enables me to set homework that most kids actually enjoy doing. it also gives the kids another teacher and access to all year levels. It's a very useful tool.

I have Working with Children check and references.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

Carolyn Reid has tutored my grade 9 son in Math for about 2 months. Prior to him commencing his lessons with Carolyn he really struggled with his confidence in Math and this was reflected in the poor grades he received in his report.

After starting with Carolyn we noticed an immediate shift in his attitude toward Math as a subject and also in him completing his homework assignments. His progress reports have shown significant improvement in the last six weeks.

We have found Carolyn to be professional and also very patient with Max and would gladly recommend her to anyone looking for a tutor for their child.

Sincerely
G. Kuhnen

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

Carolyn Reid has tutored my son in Maths throughout year 7. Will has always been challenged when it comes to maths but Carolyn's patient approach is proving to be very successful. Will enjoys the sessions and is even happy to have tutoring sessions on his Maths throughout the holidays, bringing him up to speed ready for year 8. The combination of an extremely good computer program with the extra explanation that Carolyn gives, is working very well.

Sincerely,
S. Warwick
