The tutor was kind and respectful. Worked well with Rowina and helped her better understand what she was struggling with.

PDHPE Tutor Parkinson, QLD
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is helping them either to solve their queries and/or to further understand a topic in the respective subjects. When I first came to Australia, my English tutor was really helpful in answering my questions and equips me with basic skills for school such as grammar. My strengths are connecting…

Inside HillcrestTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 3 student Hunter focused on multiplication and division basics to build towards early algebra, using practical examples for understanding.
In Year 10, Grace worked through the application of the unit circle in trigonometry and practiced balancing chemical equations.
Meanwhile, Year 11 student Daniel tackled logarithms—learning their properties and solving related problems—and explored radians with a focus on real-world applications.
Recent Challenges
In Year 4, a student often set out fraction addition and subtraction messily, which led to avoidable calculation errors; as one tutor noted, "he still has a little confusion on how to layout his addition and subtraction of fractions."
For a Year 11 Methods student, reluctance to write working in algebra—preferring mental calculations—resulted in repeated mistakes that weren't caught until prompted.
Meanwhile, another senior student's confidence faltered during exam-style worded problems; she hesitated despite using correct reasoning. In these moments, uncertainty slowed her progress and increased doubt just as time pressure mounted.
Recent Achievements
One Hillcrest tutor noticed a Year 9 student who previously hesitated to speak up now talks through her maths problems out loud, highlights key info, and finishes subtraction questions with far fewer errors than before.
In Year 12 methods, a student who struggled with calculator menus is now independently navigating functions for complex probability tasks and catches small mistakes early—something he rarely did at the start of term.
Another high schooler has started finishing all assigned homework on time and recently spotted the tutor's own error during a number line activity, showing real initiative in her learning.
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 Logan West Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Bernardine's School.
