Biology Tutor Torbay, WA
I think the most important thing a tutor can do is teach a student the skills and strategies necessary for them to reach their potential and achieve success, as well as believe the student can succeed. It is important to provide support and encouragement to students. Allowing a student to achieve success and realise their potential will provide…

Jack is fantastic, he is patient and really understands where the student is at in terms of their development needs. Would highly recommend.

Inside EllekerTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Jamie focused on redox reactions and the fundamentals of galvanic cells, tackling worksheet questions and applying concepts to assignment problems.

In Year 11, Emily worked through acid-base chemistry by solving example test papers, including practice with pH calculations and understanding concentration versus dilution.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Jack strengthened his skills in long division and began working with positive and negative numbers using step-by-step exercises.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Chemistry, one student "understood the concepts but makes silly mistakes as he needs to write and practice the reactions rather than only doing it orally or online"—missing written practice led to repeated errors in redox equations.

A Year 9 student struggled with transposing equations in science; difficulty gathering relevant information from worded problems meant key steps were left out.

In Year 7 English, unclear argument structure and informal grammar ("writes as if speaking to friends") made written responses hard to follow.

During senior exams, spending too long on tough questions left easier marks behind—time management slipped under pressure.

Recent Achievements

One Elleker tutor recently noticed a Year 11 student who had been struggling with redox reactions now confidently solving redox equations independently, after initially needing step-by-step guidance.

In another session, a Year 10 student who used to hesitate during essay writing has started asking clarifying questions when unsure and is self-correcting mistakes, showing new initiative and ownership of her learning.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student—who would often get stuck on long division—managed to complete his first long division problem with minimal help this week.

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 Albany Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Mount Lockyer Primary School.
