To give the student the tools they need to be able to improve on their own, and to help them pinpoint the areas they are weaker in. Helping a student understand questions and teaching them how to approach different styles of questions is also key for improvement.

I can make the student not only competent, but also comfortable and confident in a certain topic. I understand how stressful hard subjects can be. I want to take away the feeling of fear when students enter a class they think they're not good in. Another thing is teaching a student to be an autodidact. I was fortunate enough to know this tactic…

Accountability. Ensuring if you are unable to answer the student's questions initially, you take initiative to research and get back to them later on. Involve the student in their learning. Listen carefully to their opinions and incorporate it into how a study plan is formed, rather than the tutor making decisions for the student. Patience…

First of all, empathy so student never feels uncomfortable about not knowing a topic. Secondly, the ability to listen is as important as explaining things, so I'll be able to understand their point of view on a specific problem/subject. And, of course, the knowledge the tutor provides will be a main achievement and a perfect indicator of progress.…

I think tutor should do everything for his or her students because after the parents only teacher is one person who can very closed for the student.

I think one of the most important things a tutor can do is help a student build confidence.

It’s also really important to create a safe, supportive space where they feel comfortable asking questions…

Local Reviews

We've found Tri to be a great tutor. He is always patient and flexible in his approaches to ensure understanding of the subject matter
Tjulyata & Alariah, Ballajura

Inside BallajuraTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 student Josh revised electric and magnetic fields in Physics, with a focus on application questions and an introduction to magnetic flux using diagrams.

Year 11 student Sarah worked through specialist maths content, including graphing reciprocal functions and revising absolute value function graphs, paying attention to domain, range, and transformations.

Meanwhile, Year 7 student Emily practised plotting points on the Cartesian plane and analysed basic graphs and tables for her upcoming exam.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student struggled with magnetic field problems, as more practice is required for magnetic flux and understanding the equations used.

In Year 10, over-reliance on formula sheets during integration tasks made it difficult to apply theory independently—one note read: Needs to practise using different methods of integration without formula sheet assistance.

For a Year 7 student, skipping steps in long division meant errors went unnoticed and had to be fixed after the fact.

Meanwhile, a primary student working on Roman numerals often guessed answers impulsively instead of checking her working, which led to confusion during subtraction exercises.

Recent Achievements

A Ballajura tutor recently saw a Year 11 student move from confusion to real independence with derivatives—she can now visualise problems just from equations, which hadn't clicked before.

In another session, a Year 9 student who used to rush through graphing tasks now double-checks his work and immediately corrects mistakes without prompting.

Meanwhile, in primary years, one student who once struggled with time-telling is now confidently converting between digital and analogue clocks and spotting number patterns using her own strategies.

Last week, a senior class wrapped up revision by completing every curriculum section with strong outcomes on their practice exams.

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 Ballajura Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Ballajura Community College.
