Success wise, I think it's helping students stay consistent with their study habits. As a student myself, consistency is something I struggled with, but working on my routines and habits, my grades and confidence improved significantly. I think it's about building reliable habits, staying accountable, and having someone to support you along the…

It is most important for any tutor or teacher to provide encouragement and enthusiasm to the student, especially when the student is struggling. Knowing when to stop and give them time to understand a topic or method is equally important as learning to consolidate knowledge. A limitation I observed during school is that students are taught one…

Make a connection so the student wants to study. It’s very important that you create a bond with the student so they can motivate themselves and use the study plans and tools to improve with not only my help but also on their own.

I think the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to build their confidence, make learning clear and approachable, and support them in becoming independent learners. A tutor shouldn’t just give answers, but instead guide the student to understand the concepts and develop their problem-solving skills. It’s also important to be…

According to my experience of tutoring high school students, the biggest challenge that students could face is the psychology in their mind which tells them they are not capable of doing that particular subject.

Local Reviews

Maddie is enjoying her sessions with Courtney and we're happy with her tutoring at this stage. With only two sessions, it's still very early to see any progress, but I was well impressed with Courtney's availability to help Maddie, including sending extra resources via email. Much appreciated. So far, all is well.

Inside FerndaleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Ava focused on mean, median, mode and range in statistics and interpreted Venn diagrams to compare data sets.

Year 9 student Jacob worked through congruency and similarity proofs for triangles as well as reviewing fraction operations.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ella practiced solving questions involving simple interest and refreshed her understanding of decimal operations using targeted textbook exercises.

Recent Challenges

In Year 4, one student repeatedly forgot to complete homework and became frustrated when facing subtraction regrouping—this led to a breakdown during the session.

A Year 6 learner showed over-reliance on calculators for even basic calculations: "He reached for the calculator straight away in class, skipping mental checks."

In Year 11 Mathematics Specialist, review of past assessment tasks was missed, making it harder to pinpoint recurring errors before exams.

For a senior Chemistry student, skipped revision on ionic equations resulted in confusion with unfamiliar reaction types. Confidence dropped noticeably after setbacks; work was sometimes abandoned mid-task.

Recent Achievements

A Ferndale tutor noticed a big shift in one Year 10 student who used to freeze when facing tricky equations—this week, she tackled complex algebraic problems with far less hesitation and even chose the right method herself.

Another high schooler, previously unsure about chemistry concepts, managed to answer acid-base questions accurately without prompts and completed a full set of practice test problems independently.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who was reluctant to attempt worded time problems last month has started solving them confidently, finishing her latest set without skipping any questions.

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 Riverton Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Fountain College - Lynwood Campus.
