Every student has a different learning style; I can say this from experience as i was always until recently been labelled as not terribly gifted logically. This was until i found a tutor that was patient enough to guide me in my pursuit of knowledge, from a perspective that i understood. I believe that this is the most important action a tutor…

I believe the most important thing in tutoring is for the tutor to provide a personalised learning experience, as every student is different and will learn better under different styles. Some may require a faster or slower pace, additional resources, or re going over certain things multiple times. I believe I would make a good tutor as I am a…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, is to believe in them. When a child's role model believes in them they begin to believe in themselves and, I believe, that is the first step to accomplishing great things. If a child believes that they have the ability to do something they are more inclined to put more effort…

The best thing my methods tutor did for me in year 12 was by far to cut out the crap and stretched analogies. To learn things simply for what they are. By understanding principles in a simple and raw way, the originally complex problems were solved at a glance, leaving only the problem of writing down the working I had already seen in my mind. …

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to build their confidence while helping them understand the subject.

Inside Forest HillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Aiden worked on multi-digit multiplication, including the 2, 3, 5, and 10 times tables with carrying.

In Year 9, Emily tackled trigonometry by practicing calculations with sine, cosine, and tangent ratios.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Alex focused on differentiation techniques—using both visual depictions of gradients and applying algebraic rules to various problems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 3 student often completed mental calculations for multiplication (especially 3x tables), but avoided writing out working, which "made it hard to catch small errors."

In Year 9, a student's written solutions for algebraic expressions lacked logical order—lines were skipped or mixed fractions and variables in one step, leading to confusion during review.

At the senior level, one Year 12 student relied heavily on their CAS calculator for technology-active questions and "lost marks by not double-checking manual steps."

After setbacks with complex exam-style problems, another student hesitated to revisit feedback, slowing progress on high-achieving extended-response tasks.

Recent Achievements

A Forest Hill tutor noticed a Year 10 student who previously hesitated to tackle integration questions now works confidently under timed conditions, solving complex problems and interpreting exam prompts accurately.

In Year 7, a student who used to struggle with algebraic expressions quickly picked up the concept of expanding brackets and even managed to factorise more challenging expressions without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student, who once guessed at multiplication steps, now independently carries numbers correctly in two-digit multiplication tasks and checks their own work before moving on.

Local Spots for Tutoring

If you'd prefer not to have lessons at home, tutoring can also take place at a local library—such as Blackburn Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Blackburn Lake Primary School.
