No matter which subject the student is learning, s/he needs to know why s/he needs to learn it. Recently, Diane Tavenner, the innovator of American education encourages students to learn whatever they want by asking them to solve problem by themselves. In the field of applied linguistics, we call it 'boost input by producing output'. I believe…

Build a personal relationship with them and understand what the student does and doesn't like. Having being tutored myself, I didn't respond as well with someone who could not meet me at my level than I did with a tutor who I felt I could relate to and trust. I am calm and caring, which I think is really important in tutoring, especially when…

I believe that the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to act as both an academic and emotional mentor to alleviate some of the stress that comes with studying. Naturally, it is expected for tutors to help students with breaking down the content into manageable concepts for the student to understand. However, aspects such as study…

A tutor should be there to support the student through all academic struggles they are facing and help the student reach all their academic goals.

Inside Hunters HillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Jess focused on factorisation, including new methods and difference of two squares, as well as extending her skills with challenging algebra questions involving expanding and simplifying.

For Year 10, Alex tackled trigonometry problems using sin, cos, and tan, alongside working through bearings questions to apply these concepts in context.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student revised calculus fundamentals such as the chain rule and product rule while also consolidating understanding of derivatives and quadratic functions through targeted practice questions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student revising fractions often relied on memory for times tables but skipped showing steps, which made it harder to spot calculation slips—"she could perform operations in her head, but missing working out led to confusion when reviewing errors."

In Year 11, one student tackling calculus felt pressure to finish quickly and overlooked feedback about checking sign errors in exponential derivatives.

For a Year 10 learner, reading complex word problems only once meant key details were missed; as noted: "extra time was spent backtracking instead of progressing." This sometimes left them feeling stuck mid-question.

Recent Achievements

A Hunters Hill tutor noticed a Year 9 student who used to hesitate on worded maths problems now chooses the correct formula without prompting and explains her reasoning aloud.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student has shifted from getting stuck on multi-step algebra to independently checking her own work for errors and even attempting tougher factorisation questions unassisted.

In primary, one younger learner—who once waited passively—has begun taking initiative by jotting down notes and regularly asking clarifying questions whenever she's unsure.

Last session, that same student completed all assigned tasks before time was up.

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 Lane Cove Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Hunters Hill Public School.
