Year 5 Maths Tutoring lessons cover a broad range of basic and challenge skills (dependent on the needs of each student) and run for 1 hour. For primary students we offer group lessons for year 5 and 6 (subject to availability) or private lessons only.
Each lesson is tailored to individual requirements, so the tutor will spend a few minutes at the beginning of each lesson talking to students about their current school work and level of understanding. All resources are provided, however students are encouraged to bring school work to lessons for any specific assistance.
Revision of mathematical concepts is essential to improving results, and tutors will regularly set revision work that must be completed and returned for the next lesson.
*Please note iPads and Laptops are not encouraged in our primary classes.
What makes us different?
Low motivation at School?
Sometimes it’s as simple as connecting the right tutor or teacher with a student and everything starts to make sense. Other times we understand the need for professional intervention. Every student is unique and we like to think we can come up with a unique solution to suit your needs.
Too intimidated to ask questions at school?
Participate in one of our group tutorials for encouragement, academic guidance and positive peer interactions.
Suffers from Exam or Assignment Stress?
We’ve seen many excellent students freeze in front of an exam. Our classes include learning techniques to manage anxiety and take back control of exams.
Unable to commit to a weekly booking?
Join our homework club and use us as you need us in the lead up to exams and assessment due dates.
Organise & Prepare
We can help students build study plans, help organise exam notes, work through practice exams and many other activities to help get organised and prepared to excel at school. Our tutors are uniquely positioned to provide this advice as they use these methods to achieve excellence with their own results.
Cement The Basics
Ensuring our students are comfortable with the basics of each subject is a first priority. Students are encouraged to regularly revise and use these basic skills through exercises in class and at home.
Build Confidence
The best thing we can do for our students is build their confidence that they can achieve the results they want. Initially we set short term goals for an exam or assessment and work with students to improve results, demonstrating that good results are attainable with the right motivation. As the tutor-student relationship develops, confidence and motivation will continue to build.
Have Fun
Overall, our goal at Brainfood Education is to encourage our students to love learning. Finishing high school is merely a stepping stone in a lifetime journey of education. If we can help our students love the process as well as the results by using our tips, tricks and organisation, we consider our job well done.
For those who freeze at the idea of being in the spotlight we offer small group classes with a maximum of 4 in the class (1 Tutor per 2 Students), at a cost of $55 per 60min lesson for Years 3-10, and $65 per 60min lesson for Year 11 & 12
If your child is overwhelmed in large classes at school and needs some personalised attention we offer private lessons at a cost of $70 per 60min lesson. All private lessons are customisable – 60, 90 and 120 min sessions can be accommodated.

Whatever your motivation for exploring year 5 maths tutoring it can help your child keep up, catch up or get ahead in class. School is a lot more competitive nowadays and more often than not an extra bit of tutoring will help. If we don’t feel your child will benefit from tutoring or feel alternate avenues should be explored we will be upfront and tell you.
The lessons we learn at school have long term effects. Organisation, critical thinking, creative flair, time management and the discipline to finish what we start, are key to success in tertiary study and a future career. By teaching these concepts at an early age, along with memory techniques and tools to manage stress and anxiety, we are setting our children up to achieve the best they can. School is not the end of learning, and if we get the foundations right for our students we can bring back the love of learning, and inspire our next generation of leaders.
