Help the student completely understand the concepts at hand. I personally don't believe anyone can inherently be "bad at math". If anything, they just take longer to understand than others. As long as they possess enough willpower to do so, anything is possible. Another thing is that a student must leave the session learning something new. I am…

Overall, the goal is to facilitate the student to be able to meet their potential. I also think it's crucial for students to fully comprehend a topic in order to confidently answer unorthodox questions that may come up in an exam to stump students. I explain things in a concise manner and I explain at a moderate speed to allow people to comprehend…

Inside HillarysTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Ava practised rearranging equations into y = mx + c form and drawing linear graphs, using graph paper to visualise gradients and intercepts.

For Year 7, Ethan worked on identifying acute, obtuse, right, and reflex angles as well as calculating unknown angles within diagrams.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Oliver focused on consumer arithmetic—solving questions about investments and both simple and compound interest—and tackled complex currency exchange problems with real-world examples.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11, one student struggled to refine notes and organize revision for tests—"he needs to improve his study organisation," as observed during exam preparation. This led to missed connections between formulas and their real-world applications.

In Year 8, messy written work and skipped steps in algebra ("incorrect formatting when solving algebraic equations") made it hard to spot arithmetic errors before they became habits.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner often forgot key fraction processes and avoided using pen and paper, so confusion built up across lessons. By the end, motivation dipped whenever worded problems caused overwhelm and uncertainty.

Recent Achievements

A Hillarys tutor noticed a Year 10 student, previously hesitant with algebraic inequalities, now solving multi-step questions three times faster than before—even managing to spot and fix his own formatting mistakes along the way.

In another session, a Year 11 student who struggled to apply mathematical processes from worded problems began independently figuring out which strategies fit each question type without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who once needed step-by-step support with long addition and subtraction is now working through column sums solo and tackling new questions on her own initiative.

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 Whitford Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Mark's Anglican Community School.
