The most important thing to keep in mind when tutoring in my opinion is to help them gain confidence & enjoyment in the subject. If a student believes they are bad at a subject, they often won't try as hard because they view it as pointless. Confirmation bias can also lead to only noticing when they make mistakes, meaning they won't recognise the…

I believe it’s important for tutors to create a supportive environments for students. This will allow them to feel comfortable and open to learning. Learning is almost impossible in an environment where students do no feel safe. I also think it’s important for tutors to give students the opportunity to share their learning to encourage active…

Inside Cambrian HillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Greta focused on negative numbers and algebraic expansion, as well as reviewing like terms using brackets and constants.

Year 10 student Henry worked through trigonometry concepts including labelling sides of right-angled triangles, applying SOH CAH TOA, and using calculators to find unknown values.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Charlotte practised graphing quadratic equations, finding roots and focal points, along with revisiting the completion of the square method for solving quadratics.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 algebra, one student "tends not to double-check answers," leading to small mistakes that dent confidence—especially when visual aids become less practical with harder fraction or equation problems.

For a Year 11 student tackling induction and surds, skipping steps in rationalising quotients or misunderstanding negated statements made complex proofs more error-prone; as noted, "there is a serious level of misunderstanding of how induction and negated statements work."

In primary maths, a student struggled with keeping written work clear and organised during subtraction tasks, which muddied where the real difficulty lay for both tutor and learner.

Recent Achievements

One Cambrian Hill tutor noticed a Year 10 student who, after initially struggling to form equations independently, now confidently applies the quadratic formula with minimal help and can set up most problems on his own.

A senior student made a clear leap in probability: she can now determine the intersection of events accurately—previously a sticking point—and works through complex tables without prompts.

In a primary session, one student who used to make consistent errors identifying fractions within arrays started grouping dots correctly by the third exercise and recognised equivalent fractions by counting rather than guessing.

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 Sebastopol Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Magpie Primary School.
