Empathic: Face-to-face or personalized tutoring is intended to be remedial in nature. At times, the lack of understanding of some fundamental concepts from the prior years causes difficulty for the student. The tutor…

Inside HillsboroughTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 8 student Tiffany completed a maths assessment to identify areas for support, then practised applying index laws with negative and zero powers.
In Year 10, Sophie focused on financial mathematics by working through compound interest and depreciation worded problems, rearranging equations to find unknowns.
Meanwhile, Year 12 student Daniel reviewed key HSC Physics topics including the photoelectric effect and Einstein's postulates, tackling past exam questions to strengthen his understanding of quantum theory.
Recent Challenges
In Year 10, test preparation revealed a tendency to overlook time management strategies—"time just slipped away in the last section," as noted after a trial maths exam—which meant rushed answers and missed checking opportunities.
For Year 12 HSC science, workload ramp-ups were needed but sometimes delayed due to late starts or postponed sessions, leading to less consistent practice on targeted question types before trials.
A Year 8 student avoided writing out all steps when tackling negative indices, making it harder to spot small calculation slips during review.
In creative writing (Year 5), confidence dips showed up whenever feedback wasn't fully taken on board; drafts stalled mid-way.
Recent Achievements
A tutor in Hillsborough recently saw some real breakthroughs across a few students. One Year 11 student, who used to skip steps and get stuck on worded maths questions, now writes out every part of his working and has started tackling tricky multi-step problems much more confidently—he even managed to interpret several complex scenarios independently by the end of the session.
In another session, a high schooler finally nailed probability tables and could solve "and/or" tree problems without prompts after struggling previously.
Meanwhile, a Year 3 student who found mathematical terms confusing at first began using them correctly as he worked through examples together with the tutor.
