Hellene is very friendly and well organised. She makes my daughter feel comfortable and at ease. She has given my daughter great tips on how to help her understand maths questions. She is very professional and patient. I recommend Hellene to anyone that is wanting a tutor for their child.Tegan Blanckensee
Year 4 student Tasha practised calculating surface area and reviewed a range of exam topics, reinforcing key geometry concepts.
In Year 11, Daniel focused on applying differentiation and integration in mathematics using worked examples to clarify the process.
Meanwhile, Year 12 student Emily explored optimization problems in higher-level maths, tackling real-world scenarios and preparing for upcoming mock tests.
In Year 10 maths, one student hesitated to attempt unfamiliar questions without guidance, often pausing mid-task and waiting for prompts; as the tutor observed, "I encouraged her to think independently before providing help."
Meanwhile, a senior chemistry student resorted to guessing equations rather than applying learned methods, which led to confusion during assignment completion.
In middle years (Year 7–8), another student's working was disorganised when writing out questions—he missed steps and had trouble recalling formulas under pressure.
For primary level maths, frequent rushing caused repeated small errors in counting money and basic operations, slowing progress on new skills.
A tutor in Whiteside noticed that Kiana, a high school student, went from feeling unsure about negative indices to independently finishing those questions quickly and accurately by the end of her session.
Another high schooler, Clancey, who started out hesitant with trigonometric functions, was able to answer problems on his own after some guided practice—something he hadn't managed before.
In Year 3, Sophia used real coins during maths and moved from struggling with counting money to confidently completing worksheets while actually enjoying the process.
