Most important thing would be to know what the goal of the student is and help them and support them in achieving their goal in a friendly environment. A tutor should be able to offer many different explanations so that the student has a better chance of understanding a particular concept. Most important is to make the student feel at ease and be…

Science Tutor Ashby, WA
A tutor should push the student as much as they possibly can. Not answer the questions for them, continue making sure the student understands throughout a session and asking the student to teach a question to the tutor. A tutor can build the confidence of a student, reassuring the student on their strengths, and encouraging them to build and…

Students are different from each other, some are fast learner while others are the opposite. As a tutor, I think its important to deliver a lesson that is easy to comprehend regardless of how academic the students are. I am more to lean to visual than texts. Since one of my hobbies is drawing, I would use this skill to deliver visual aid to…

Ashley had a great tutor experience with Harrison, I was very impressed with her feedback, she said she felt very comfortable with Harrison and that he explained things very well. She walked away from that lesson very comfortable which impressed me as she is very shy.

Inside AshbyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Petrone worked on a geometry problem involving kites and the equations of diagonals, then practised **inequalities and exponential equations**.

For Year 10, Jayden revised **inverse trigonometric functions** including angle of elevation and depression, then received an introduction to parabolas.

Meanwhile, Year 6 Lily reviewed **fractions, ratios, and percentages** after a quick check of her times tables knowledge during her lesson.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student faced difficulties identifying when to add or multiply probabilities, especially distinguishing between independent and dependent events—this led to confusion in complex probability questions.

In Year 9, one learner's algebraic work was hampered by skipping key steps in rearranging equations, making it hard to trace errors; as a tutor noted, "she made the denominators the same when multiplying fractions which was unnecessary."

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student often left homework incomplete or rushed times tables practice, so gaps in basic skills persisted into test situations. Frustration sometimes surfaced when handwriting couldn't keep up with thinking—answers were blurted out before careful checking.

Recent Achievements

One Ashby tutor recently noticed a Year 10 student who, after struggling with trigonometry all term, independently calculated unknown sides using sin, cos, and tan on her calculator for the first time—she'd previously waited for prompts each step.

Another high schooler moved from just scraping average to exceeding her class's average exam mark by 16%, having started to check her own work for errors instead of leaving questions blank when unsure.

Meanwhile, a younger student who used to avoid asking questions now regularly stops to clarify what key words mean before moving forward with maths problems.

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 Joondalup Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Spring Hill Primary School.
