Software Dev Tutor Lambton, NSW
As we all know, learning should not be restricted to getting good marks in any institution or to memorising lists of facts. The most important things that can be given are the motivation and ability to keep finding things out for oneself (and to fact check new information without relying on AI or internet rumour). Seeing and approaching topics…

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

We couldn't be happier. Both girls are enjoying the tutoring with Jackie, and feel they are learning something new each week.

Kymberley has clicked quite well with Gayan and she seems to be very happy with him.

Annalise has settled and is working well with Sam.  He's a great tutor, very attentive and makes her think!

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.
