I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them understand the course content- so they can pass assessment- and also to help them understand other aspects of the subject they need or want to understand, either for the sake of curiosity or because they have some use for it. It is best if this understanding is of a deep…

I think helping students understand how to approach a question and learning how to discipline themselves is the most important. Constantly reminding them to complete their homework so we can go over their mistakes next time is also important in establishing a routine and will hopefully give them an incentive to do the same with school. I believe I…

Inside East HillsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Mia worked through **perimeter and length calculations** alongside multiplication and division, using her school homework as a guide.

For Year 7, lessons with Alex focused on applying the **index laws** and simplifying expressions with indices, followed by adding and dividing fractions with different denominators.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Ava practiced solving **linear equations** and explored graphing straight lines, using coordinate geometry problems to reinforce these algebraic skills.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student struggled with exam performance, not due to content gaps but from "writing answers down or conducting working in a confusing way," which led to lost marks even when the maths was understood.

In Year 10 algebra, anxiety and frequent second-guessing meant she constantly sought validation before writing her ideas, stalling progress on longer written responses.

For a Year 5 learner, confusion arose in division and multi-step word problems—misinterpreting negative signs as subtraction or mixing up operation order.

When learning decimals in Year 6, skipping layout steps made mistakes harder to spot and correct during revision sessions.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in East Hills noticed Leila now checks her work for mistakes before moving on—a big shift from earlier sessions when she'd rush ahead and miss errors.

In another session, Leila showed new independence by tackling unseen financial maths problems and was able to explain where she'd gone wrong without needing prompts.

Meanwhile, Mohammad, also in high school, recently used new vocabulary words accurately in sentences after struggling with this skill just weeks ago.

During one lesson, he completed a factual recount independently using the correct structure.

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 Panania Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like East Hills Public School.
