1. Be understanding and compassionate, as we may not fully understand their scenario or their struggles. 2. Listening to students in regards to what their weakest areas are and implementing any methods they may want to use to address the issue (e.g. practice questions). 3. Understanding when it's the right time to say "lets move onto another…

Listening is the key thing. It’s great that you can teach people, but if they can’t understand the way you teach it you must listen to what helps them learn the subjects I am very clear, concise and very effective when it comes to helping people understand maths and…

A good tutor will get the student to understand the content, but an amazing tutor can inspire the student to want for more. Personally, I believe that one of the most important things a tutor can provide is that open dialogue. Students learn so much more when there is a genuine interest in the subject, and the only way to grow it is through…

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.
