Giving the student the self-confidence and self-esteem that they can accomplish their work and work out the solutions to problems, with guidance. A lot of students are under stress these days, and if I can help to allievate their stress a little, that would make me feel like I have also accomplished something important. My strengths would be…

Science Tutor Joondalup, WA
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to explain the difficult concept in the most relevant and tangible way possible so that the student can feel the Physical connection with knowledge in the book and real world. And indeed, both are complimentary to each other. I think my passion for teaching is my…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is be patient and listen to what they aren't understanding. Also to be able to identify that is a student isn't understanding a concept then the tutor needs to be able to recognise this and try to explain it to them in a different way. I think my strengths as a tutor are that I am a very…

A tutor has to want the student to succeed in what they're learning. It's important to know specifically where the student is struggling in order to help them.

By focusing on what they have achieved rather then what they haven't, the children can gain a sense of self worth and achievement, making them more likely to want to learn more.

Inside EdgewaterTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Lucas worked on reading comprehension and fact families, then practised division alongside the 5 and 6 times tables using visual strategies.

For Year 9, Emma focused on financial maths including simple and compound interest calculations, as well as trigonometry with real-life application problems.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Sarah revised intermolecular forces in Chemistry and tackled scalar product concepts in Maths, working through example problems from recent class topics.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student avoided showing working in algebra, "reluctant to write out steps," which made it hard to spot small errors and slowed progress when tackling formulas from memory.

In Year 8, a lack of confidence with times tables led one student to hesitate before answering—he seemed anxious about making mistakes, especially during mental calculation drills.

Meanwhile, a senior chemistry student struggled to recall key formulas without notes at hand; over-reliance on written aids meant more time searching than solving.

When students do not practice applying feedback or organizing their work clearly, confusion grows during revision sessions.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Edgewater noticed that one high school student, after struggling with complex long division, is now able to tackle more challenging problems independently and asks for targeted help only when needed—last session he completed several multi-step questions with minimal prompting.

Another older student who previously hesitated to apply interest formulas can now solve both simple and compound interest problems on her own, showing initiative by checking her answers before moving on.

Meanwhile, a younger student has started reading aloud without waiting for cues, jumping into new comprehension passages confidently after weeks of reluctance.

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 Wanneroo Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Edgewater Primary School.
