English Tutor Glen Forrest, WA
The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to allow them to build up their own confidence in the subject that they are struggling in, as well as allowing them not to see the subject as a chore or something to avoid, but as an enjoyable and fun task that would be highly useful for the future! My strengths are that I would…

Apart from this, it is to make learning a fun process by teaching in a more fun way, this includes doing different activities to make children understand the concepts, etc. I do possess great…

I think that the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to give their best effort to explain the subject while still letting the student have a chance at engaging with the subejct matter. This is because students in my opinion tend to learn better from the encouragement that they recieve upon engagement to the material. I…

Be genuine; be genuine about knowing the information, be geuine about wanting to help and being genuinely concerned for their education. I am really good at explaining things to students, in lots of different ways if they dont understand. My weakness would be that i am really friendly, and if the student just wants to sit and talk i would have a…

Tutors work with students to guide their learning process, by personalising the content delivery in a way the child is able to respond to. This also incorporates the ability to motivate the child to learn, to believe in their own abilities and to strive to keeping persevering. I believe I have the necessary strength simply to push. I describe…

Inside Glen ForrestTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Sophia focused on probability as fractions, decimals, and percents, and also worked with the probability line to visually represent likelihood.

For Year 7, Max tackled simplifying algebraic expressions involving polynomials and practiced applying the distributive property to factorise terms.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Ava concentrated on rounding decimals to one or two decimal places as well as whole numbers, using real-world examples for extra clarity.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student did not complete any set probability homework and, as one tutor observed, "she wasn't cooperative and didn't want to involve herself in the lesson, even though she has a test the next day." This lack of engagement meant missed opportunities for exam practice.

In Year 7 algebra, forgetting to bring a calculator and textbook led to delays starting equations tasks.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student repeatedly left her story plan unwritten for homework; when asked about it, she became distracted by laptop use instead. The absence of written practice directly impacted her ability to draft introductions independently during lessons.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Glen Forrest recently noticed a big change with one Year 10 student who, after weeks of hesitation, now openly asks for clarification on algebraic expressions instead of quietly guessing—making it much easier to tackle new material together.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student who previously struggled to keep up with negative numbers was able to independently solve mixed problems using a number line, showing real initiative by checking her own work.

On the primary side, a Year 4 learner completed all their math tasks without reminders and even explained how to find the mean in her own words.

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 Boya Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Glen Forrest Primary School.
