Year 9 represents a crucial point during secondary school. When it comes to Maths Tutoring, we believe at GEA it is all about conceptual understanding. It is not about the number of questions your child will go through, but it is about if they understand the concepts or not.
GEA follows a strict Maths Tutoring methodology with our curriculum and strategy based on current research into cognition. The curriculum follows our Five-C-Methodology and Cognitive Load Theory, the lead theory into explicit learning.
In our Year 9 Maths Tutoring courses tutors explain each concept at a deeper level and make sure your child understands it thoroughly. Following this, strategies are explained and demonstrated and linked to the concept tutored so your child can solve the questions with understanding.
Making sure students understand the question; the information given, the key words, and what the question is asking.
Students are taught how to plan for the solution.
Usually, the planning part is the most difficult for students. They sometimes just want to give an answer. Planning is an important skill that if it is learned at an early age, saves a lot of tutoring and a lot of struggles in the future.
Students solve the question simply by executing the plan. They will be directed by the tutors on ways to execute with minimal mistakes.
After each question, students reflect on the question solved and on what they have learned from it. This is very important as it directs some of the cognitive load in the brain towards the vital process of building schemas.
Schemas are mental structure that can be used in the future to solve similar problems. Our tutors are trained on how to facilitate this step.
Our Year 9 Maths Tutoring curriculum is developed based on cognitive load theory and aligned with the Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority (ACARA) and beyond. Our Year 9 Maths tutoring courses have been specifically written to incorporate the outcomes and indicators from the Australian Curriculum for each stage of students’ learning.

George from 19% in Year 9 to accelerated maths in Year 11.
He was assessed and found to have a potential to be high performing in maths, but his results showed otherwise.
He was recommended a plan of group classes combined with individual tutoring at GEA. He worked very hard during the term and also during the school holiday. George spent a year at GEA then was good to go on his own as he improved significantly and become confident and independent in his maths. Two years later, we received a phone call from George’s mum telling us that George was chosen by his school to do accelerated maths in Year 10. She was over the moon and was kind enough to call and share the great news with us.
