Tailoring lessons to the student's unique learning style and needs is crucial. Every student is different, and adapting to their strengths and weaknesses helps them excel. A tutor should simplify complex ideas and break them down into understandable parts. Clear explanations and practical examples can help students grasp difficult subjects. I…

One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to be a reliable source of guidance and support. Consistency helps build trust, and when students know they can depend on their tutor, they feel more confident in their learning journey. A great tutor also adapts to the student’s needs, making lessons engaging and effective. Beyond…

In my eyes, one of the most important aspects of a tutor would be the ability to see things through the student's perspective. Being able to pinpoint exactly what the student needs help with can make the entire learning experience more efficient and a lot more rewarding overall. It also makes the student feel a lot more comfortable, as a learning…

I believe encouragement is the most important thing a tutor can do. By focusing on what they have achieved rather then what they haven't, the children can gain a sense of self worth and achievement, making them more likely to want to learn more. By always being there to support them through difficult content, a tutor can develop trust with the…

First is to make sure they understand the theoretical underpinnings of a concept and able to apply it on different question/situations etc. Second is to impart and inspire the rationale behind why they need to understand whatever it is that they are studying.

A tutor has to want the student to succeed in what they're learning. It's important to know specifically where the student is struggling in order to help them. It would be remiss not to mention that there is a positive impact on the students' performance in school as well. If I explain something and the student doesn't understand, I'll find…

Donna, Hillarys

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.
