Local Reviews

Savio is an excellent tutor and has good understanding of her student needs.
Ahmed Hussein

Inside McGraths HillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Ava worked on breaking numbers into tens and ones for addition and subtraction, as well as reading longer passages to build fluency.

In Year 9, Michael focused on financial mathematics by calculating simple and compound interest, then briefly revised simultaneous equations and inequalities from school using real-life examples.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Sarah refined her understanding of algebra by reviewing recent exam errors together, followed by targeted practice on solving linear equations and showing full working out.

Recent Challenges

In Year 12 Business Studies, a student's tendency to only review class notes sporadically led to gaps when tackling extended response tasks; as one tutor noted, "without regular revision, the connections between concepts were missed in practice essays."

In Year 10 Mathematics, another student avoided showing full algebraic working, making it difficult to identify and correct errors—this meant extra time spent retracing steps instead of learning new methods.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 learner left some homework incomplete and forgot key materials for lessons on volume, which slowed their progress through measurement topics. Missed practice opportunities added pressure before assessment deadlines.

Recent Achievements

One Mcgraths Hill tutor noticed Olivia, a high school student, now tackles complex simultaneous equations and selects the right formulas in financial maths without needing hints—last term she often hesitated or needed reminders.

William, also in high school, used to get stuck on algebraic expressions but after revisiting the distributive law is now solving them independently and writes out key details from word problems before working through solutions.

In Year 3, Sannae has moved from relying on prompts for reading tricky words to breaking down unfamiliar ones by herself and spelling "ai/ay" words correctly in full sentences.

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 Hawkesbury Central Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Windsor High School.
