Tutors should be able to provide students motivation, assistance and inspiration in all aspects of the learning environment. As someone who is still studying, I believe I am able to easily connect and communicate with students and be able to relate with them. This support will assist in building confidence. I definitely have the mathematical…

Teaching minds, touching hearts, transforming lives. Aside from the mastery of the subject being taught, developing a genuine bond between tutor and student, helping them apply or understand the gravity or importance of their study and why they should not take it for granted. In other words, helping them not only in the four corners of the…

I think it's important to listen and observe, find out how a student learns, how they go about working on a problem, then use these observations to construct a way to better their understanding of the material. I'm an easy going guy, I try not to stress people out. I am able to understand and simplify Mathematics in a way that's easier to…

Making a student as confident as possible is the upmost important aspect of tutoring in my mind. This is because, no matter how many hours are spent studying, if a student is not confident within themselves, in exam settings they will constantly doubt themselves and make avoidable mistakes. Therefore, building students confidence is the most…

I believe a great tutor goes beyond just increasing a student's marks- they are able to act as a mentor and oversee a student's education holistically. For example, I also guided one of my previous students through his year 12 year, helping him with the university admissions process and scholarship applications, where he is now studying…

Inside The HillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Emily focused on mastering division facts and multiples through practical exercises.

For Year 9, Jack reviewed financial mathematics topics including depreciation methods and calculating shares with dividend yield, working through exam-style questions.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Sarah consolidated her understanding of the quadratic formula and practiced completing the square to solve quadratic equations, using worked examples to build confidence for assessments.

Recent Challenges

Several process habits stood out across different year levels.

In Year 11 Financial Mathematics, one student relied heavily on formulas—"Liz tends to just plug numbers in rather than understand the context," noted a tutor—making it difficult when questions changed style or required real-world reasoning.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student working on algebra showed reluctance to attempt "hard-looking" problems and often defaulted to "I don't know" before trying, leading her to avoid deeper problem solving and backchecking.

Another senior student's working out was mostly done mentally; without writing steps down, errors went unnoticed, especially under exam pressure. This sometimes left marks unclaimed despite strong content knowledge.

Recent Achievements

Danika took the initiative to identify and organise her questions before lessons—a shift from earlier sessions where she'd hesitate to speak up.

Liz has become much more willing to challenge her tutor's answers during tricky financial maths topics. Last week she confidently explained her reasoning for z-score problems, even teaching back some concepts she'd struggled with before.

Lara used new time-blocking strategies to plan study sessions and independently completed a challenging linear equations problem without help by the end of her lesson.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

The tutoring is going tremendously well.  The system you use, the high level of communication and dependability shown by Nirvan, and the teaching style is working exceptional well.  I'm very impressed with your service, and its meeting my (high) expectations.  I fully appreciate that this is not a quick fix, and it takes time.  We're committed to continuing this throughout Term 3 and 4 at least. The support and patience Nirvan is showing is really helping Emily, and he is supportive and has the capacity to challenge her at the right pace.  I've asked her why some things that we've tried to work through before have made more sense when explained by Nirvan.  She said that he works at her pace and stays with something until she understands it. Many thanks.  Your back-office communications is also highly supportive of parents and whilst you're delivering on what you've clearly explained, I find your level of communication extremely professional, supportive and consistent.

The tutoring seems to be going well. I've asked Niamh and she is also very comfortable and happy with Ben. First maths test since her tutoring with Ben started and she received a mark of 90 so I think we're on the right track.

We are very happy with Kieren. Quinn thinks it's fun and Ronan, although he's very shy, is comfortable with Kieren.

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 East Public School.
