If you are a biology tutor, your job is to empower other people. Even if you are picking up blind spots, asking a student to paraphrase something, or advising more research in a particular area, there are ways to convey this information that are encouraging and helpful, (rather than condescending). We all have blind spots, too. I have found…

Local Reviews

Since the v first session with Radu, we were all totally hooked! He is not just the BEST tutor but the most amazing person. Radu has the ability to calmly install confidence into his students and ensure that they fully understand all the concepts, not just learn them. He is kind, professional and a honest joy to have around ??

Inside RiverhillsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Cara focused on consolidating times tables (4, 6, 7, 8, and 9) through oral quizzes and practiced converting between decimals, percentages, and fractions.

Year 11 student Sanvi worked on binomial probability (including mean and standard deviation for discrete random variables) and tackled calculus problems involving differentiation of logarithmic functions using the chain rule.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Alex reviewed integration by substitution in the context of probability density functions and revised polynomial division alongside applications of the factor theorem.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Maths, several students hesitated to set out their reasoning clearly in integration and probability questions—one tutor noted, "he skipped stating 'by product rule' in test working," which made justifying answers harder.

In a Year 9 Chemistry session, the analysis section was left unfinished and required better organization before moving on.

For a Year 4 student, forgetting to keep a homework notebook meant tasks were often missed or incomplete.

During advanced trigonometry (Year 12), relying heavily on calculators for standard values led to gaps when tackling unfamiliar problems without technology in assessments.

Recent Achievements

One Riverhills tutor noticed a Year 11 student who, after struggling with integration by substitution, now independently applies the method to tackle unfamiliar calculus problems.

In another session, a high schooler working on chemistry assignments has started her work early for the first time and is now connecting concepts across topics without prompting—a big shift from previously leaving tasks until the last minute.

Meanwhile, Cara in Year 4 has moved from relying on notes for times tables to scoring full marks in quizzes purely from memory and now volunteers to try new problem types before being asked.

What they say about our tutoring

1. I am very impressed with the service your Company provides. Mihika is an outstanding Tutor, and the feedback you have provided in terms of monthly report is very well received. well done!!! 2. In case you guys don't do any formal Customer feedback surveys, I would highly likely recommend your Company to others parents seeking this type of assistance.

Raymond is FANTASTIC - the benefits of his tutoring is already obvious with my eldest very confident and my youngest gaining it!

Our son started with his maths tutor in Year 6, he was struggling and his marks were in the lower quartile of the class.  Now half way through Year 7, he's gained confidence with maths and achieving excellent marks placing him above the year average.  His tutor is a great young uni student, he takes the time to explain problems in a way our son can understand them, he's patient and clear when he needs to redirect a problem.  One of the great benefits is the wonderful example he has been to our son, showing him how maths will play an important part in what he might want to do in the future. We are extremely pleased with results our son is achieving and credit a lot of the improvement to the support and work of our Ezy Math Tutor.  We love that tutoring happens at home and at a time that works for us a family.

Biology tutoring in Riverhills

It's not hard to understand why students choose to learn biology. Numerous careers start by learning those fundamental principles in high school, and even if they don't pursue a career in a related field - the knowledge is invaluable for life. 

Knowing the basics can make a student's life easier, both in a personal and professional setting, yet even educators agree - biology is currently poorly covered in schools. So it comes as no surprise students often end up needing help to get ahead.

Biology Tutor Riverhills

If you're looking for biology tutor in Riverhills, we can help you out! It doesn't matter if it's test preparation or furthering their knowledge, tutors can show how to tackle all the information but also really get into the nitty-gritty.

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 Mount Ommaney Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Middle Park State School.
