To me, the most important thing is to teach and make the student not to feel any less of him or herself. I would always try to inculcate positive thinking into my students mind as it is very important at that age for them to know that everything is possible and achievable. With this attitude, giving up in anything will never occur to them in…

I think the best thing a tutor can do for their students is show that they are interested in them as individuals. I think tutors should find out what their students are interested in and use this as a tool in teaching. Being able to make a connection like this makes the experience more enjoyable and educational for both student and tutor. I think…

I consider that the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to accompany and motivate them while facilitating their learning. However, it's ultimately the student who holds the power to improve. I believe tutoring is a form of coaching, and I also think that, at times, the student has much to teach the tutor. It's a collaborative…

Local Reviews

My daughter was happy with Patricia.
Steven

Inside Cannon HillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 Rebecca focused on applications of derivatives in calculus and worked through long division of polynomials; she also reviewed exam questions related to these topics.

Year 10 sessions with Lincoln involved factorising quadratic expressions using HCF and the difference of squares, along with practice solving simultaneous equations from word problems.

Meanwhile, Year 7 Josh practised constructing frequency distribution tables for data sets and represented information visually using histograms and polygons.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 Maths Methods student recently transitioned from General Maths and struggled to recall key rules for critical paths and exact form answers, as noted: "remembering the equation for critical paths." This meant extra time spent hunting through notes during problem-solving, rather than building fluency.

In Year 10, another student hesitated to attempt long division of polynomials independently—when faced with similar questions in revision, she waited for guidance instead of practicing on her own.

For a Year 7 class assignment, difficulty converting units was linked to skipping written steps; "she tried to do it all in her head," which led to confusion mid-question.

Recent Achievements

One Cannon Hill tutor noticed Rebecca, a Year 11 student, has started to openly ask for clarification on difficult classwork—something she was hesitant to do before—which is helping her tackle complex trigonometry problems more independently.

Dyllan, in Year 10, recently managed to solve polynomial long division questions with only minimal prompting after initially needing step-by-step guidance; he even began checking his own answers by expanding brackets.

Meanwhile, Kate (Year 7) completed an online formative quiz and scored 21 out of 21 after working through each question's reasoning together, finishing the session feeling accomplished and ready for her upcoming exam.

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 Carina Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Oliver Plunkett School.
