Science Tutor Kinross, WA
The most important thing a tutor or any teacher can do, I think, would be to instill confidence in the students own ability to do deal with the task given, whatever that task may entail. I think the way I explain and teach is very beneficial specifically in a one on one setting. I've always found it harder to teach to many people because not…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is be supportive in helping students reach their full potential. Whether this be through going over difficult concepts, assisting in methods of memorisation and retaining information, or providing effective study techniques, it is the role of a tutor to support their students in areas needed.…

Again, if you can relate to your students you will have an easier time understanding what problems they're having, and adapting your style. This along with open communication and non-judgement. Being empathetic with students struggles. Trying to figure out the students learning style and tailor my teaching to…

Listening and being patient. Just because something makes sense to you doesn't mean it is easy for the student. Letting the student explain where they are struggling and really listening to them can help the tutor to better understand their problem. Being patient is crucial as learning always takes time and its our job to ensure the student isn't…

Putting all their effort into the student, and making sure they are your number one priority. Also being respectful towards the students, making them feel comfortable towards you. I am a good communicator, I am quite young so I'll be able to engage with most of the students better than someone older, I have fresh knowledge only just coming out of…

Science Tutor Banksia Grove, WA
The most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is to help them see the subject in the light that they do and nurture their interest in it. Failure in getting the concepts also leads to fear and that's where a tutor has to support the student , to prevent them from losing confidence in themselves. My biggest strength as a tutor is my…

Everything is going really well with our tutor Sarah. Devon looks forward to seeing her every week so that in itself is a good sign.

Inside ButlerTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Aaliyah worked on expanding single brackets and simplifying algebraic expressions using the distributive property, with a focus on combining like terms.

In Year 10, Ethan practised solving simultaneous equations in two variables by rearranging equations and applying both elimination and substitution methods.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Michael tackled linear equations related to wages and income questions, building confidence in interpreting real-life contexts through step-by-step equation solving.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student preparing for Physics exams repeatedly left homework incomplete and often forgot to bring a notebook, which slowed progress when reviewing SUvat equations and force diagrams. As one tutor noted, "He needed to get a new book for the term but didn't, so key notes were missing."

Meanwhile, in Year 9 Mathematics, another student's messy written work on algebra problems made it hard to spot calculation errors—this meant time was spent reworking lines instead of learning distributive law shortcuts.

In Year 4, skipping regular practice led to confusion with larger division tasks during lessons.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Butler noticed a Year 10 student who used to rush through equations is now pausing to back-check answers and making far fewer careless mistakes—he even talks aloud through each step, which wasn't happening before.

In a recent high school physics session, another student independently selected the right formula for circular motion problems after struggling to match concepts and equations last term.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who was once hesitant to attempt homework now keeps pages neatly dated and labelled, finishing practice tasks without reminders and volunteering extra questions at the end of sessions.

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 Clarkson Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Butler College.
