Standard My daughter felt comfortable with Joseph from the first lesson. Joseph is polite and fits into the household routine. My daughter feels more confident with maths after only a few sessions. I would recommend Joseph for any young person.Annie
Year 7 student Ethan worked through Pythagoras' theorem and linear equations in maths, then learned to summarise research in his own words for English.
Year 8 student Olivia practised writing an essay on the novel "Wonder" and solved introductory trigonometry problems, using diagrams for bearings.
For Year 9, Daniel focused on expanding and factorising algebraic expressions in maths while developing arguments and refining paragraphs for an ongoing English essay.
A Year 9 student had trouble maintaining a regular homework routine, leading to missed opportunities for reinforcing new maths concepts; "Important ALL homework is attempted," noted one tutor.
In Year 11, a student's confidence dropped after setbacks in algebraic graphing—when asked about previous tests, materials couldn't be located, stalling targeted revision.
For a Year 7 learner, messy working and unclear number alignment during addition tasks meant avoidable calculation errors crept in and time was spent double-checking rather than progressing.
Meanwhile, an upper-primary student rushed through spelling assignments due to fatigue at term's end, resulting in incomplete practice and weaker recall the following week.
One Big Hill tutor noticed a Year 11 student who previously hesitated to ask for help now actively flags when he's stuck, making real progress with tricky worded maths problems.
In a recent session with a Year 9 student, the tutor saw her push past earlier nerves to deliver a well-structured oral presentation—she even asked for feedback on how to improve further.
Meanwhile, a younger student in Year 5, who often struggled to finish homework, brought in an organised folder and proudly completed all assigned tasks on time for the first time.
