Most important thing I believe a tutor can do for a student is to influence the student to become more ambitious and help them learn things quickly and in a more smarter way. Ability to understand each student's calibre and teach according to it in a simpler and friendly…

Modern History Tutor Elermore Vale, NSW
I believe a tutor is all about being able to be the middle man between teachers and students. They are able to act in a professional manner but also can individually suit the needs of a specific student. In doing this tutors are able to fill in those missing links and hopefully create a sense of confidence in students that they might otherwise…

Local Reviews

Jessica went really well with Zara. We're really impressed with how focused Zara is during the session/s and this is obviously in part to Jessica's approach and interest in the student. Certainly off on the right start.

Inside Cooks HillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ava practised division and multiplication facts using short tests and visual aids, while Year 9 student Lucas focused on algebraic equations and linear relationships by reviewing actual exam questions.

Meanwhile, in Year 11, Ethan worked through financial maths topics including depreciation and shares, tackling more challenging dividend yield calculations with step-by-step examples to deepen understanding.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Mathematics, one student relied heavily on formula substitution without fully grasping underlying concepts—"she is too reliant on putting numbers into a given formula," noted the tutor, especially in financial maths. This habit led to uncertainty when unfamiliar wording or new problem types appeared.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student's written working was often disorganised and hard to follow, with steps jumbled or missing, which made reviewing errors difficult and slowed progress on worded questions.

Across both years, confidence wavered after setbacks; "I don't know" responses replaced attempts when questions looked challenging, limiting growth in problem-solving and retention.

Recent Achievements

One Cooks Hill tutoring session saw a Year 10 student, Danika, start bringing her own list of tricky questions from class to discuss—something she never used to do. She's also begun tackling homework before lessons rather than leaving it until the last minute.

In Year 12, Liz recently worked through challenging financial maths exam questions and explained her answers out loud, showing clear reasoning and even teaching her tutor some steps—a big change from earlier sessions when she hesitated to speak up.

Meanwhile, Lara in Year 7 independently completed a new problem with linear equations without any prompts for the first time.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I'm really happy with my tutor Karen which has helped me a lot with my work so far, she really does help me with my errors and to understand my topic and it has made a difference to my learning and I'm more ahead of the class now. I would really like to thank this company for letting me try and push my ability to my greatest. I hope the rest of year stays the same and once again thank it had made a big difference.

Jade has settled in really well with Sangdi, and has told me that she feels she is learning and understanding new things each time they have a meeting. I am also happy with Sangdi as I can see that he has already made progress with Jade.

Holly has stated that Jennifer her tutor is helping her with her Maths. She is certainly in a better frame of mind with Jennifer than when either myself or my husband had tried to help in the past. Early days yet but looking positive.

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 Newcastle Region Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Newcastle Grammar Park School Campus.
