Verified Tutor
Dhiya is a warm, down-to-earth tutor who understands what school feels like right now, having recently completed her senior studies with consistently high results. She received a Certificate of Academic Excellence for ongoing strong performance, showing she not only “gets” the content but knows how to study effectively. This tutor focuses on clear explanations and practical strategies, helping students in Maths and English feel more confident, organised and ready for tests and assignments.
Through her experience training new team members in fast-paced workplaces, Dhiya has learnt how to break complex steps into simple, easy-to-follow instructions. She brings this same skill to tutoring by guiding students through tricky Maths problems or dense English texts one step at a time. She asks questions to check understanding, encourages students to “think out loud”, and uses real-life examples so abstract ideas feel more concrete and less intimidating.
Years of involvement in community sport have taught Dhiya how to encourage others, stay positive under pressure and celebrate small improvements. She uses this coaching mindset in her sessions, setting achievable goals and showing students exactly where they’ve improved, not just where they went wrong. This tutor is particularly good with students who feel shy or anxious about schoolwork, helping them build resilience, study habits and a sense of pride in their progress over time.

Amelia has strong addition and subtraction skills, and can easily add large numbers and decimals together. She is able to easily identify operations in a worded question.
Amelia would benefit from further repetition and practice with regrouping in more complex situations, particularly when working with zeros (e.g., 1,000 ? 688). She can also become confused when switching between addition and subtraction, particularly when carrying-over is required (e.g., 111 - 2 and 119 + 2).
