I feel that above all else a physics tutor is there to help a student learn but is also required to help guide a student through whatever it may be. It never hurts to have another opinion from someone outside of family or maybe even religion or culture. Ability to transfer knowledge in an understandable way and the resilience to continue even when…

Firstly, improving the understanding of the student is very important- 1:1 teaching allows for in depth discussion which is not usually possible in classroom environments. Secondly, identifying specific weaknesses in problem solving (often systematic) which you only tend to recognise by watching a student complete questions. Finally, obtaining…

the most important things a physics tutor can do for a student is uplift them knowledge wise as well as in person. To give them knowledge while instilling good habits and ethics. To make them grow into a better version of themselves. I'm good at keeping the class knowledgeable yet interesting at the same time. I have a sharp eye, so it is easier…

It depends a little bit on age but the older they get the more important confidence is going to be and giving the students confidence is the most important job. I'm not going to teach a 12 year old a lot more, they have spent years in school and they have all the knowledge they need. The important job of tutor is to make them believe that they…

Always be on the same wavelength with your students. If they're comfortable around you, Maths will easily find the path to their hearts. Make compliments and specify their strong points, pay attention to their success - that is how we learn and stay in a good mood at the same time. As I already have a significant experience working as online tutor…

By being patient, encouraging, and consistent, tutors help students feel supported and capable. I…

I think one of the most important things about tutoring is to help students not only understand what they need to do, but also why they need to do it, alongside techniques to perform well in assessments. My biggest strength as a tutor is my ability to explain concepts from the ground up. Because my own understanding of maths and science is built…

I think that it's really important to be a good listener so that you can use feedback from students to improve your teaching. Not everyone learns in the same way so it's really important to work with each student to find the learning tehniques that work best for them. It's also important to recognise that each student could prefer different…

The most important thing I can do for a student is providing the tools and resources to be able to tackle problems independently, no matter the difficulty. To do this, it is important to design personalised methodologies that allow students to learn the basic knowledge, get familiar with some examples and then put into practice what was learned…

In my opinion, there are three main factors to consider: 1) Solve all the doubts that the student has. 2) Encourage students to continue exploring in depth the topic that is learned. so he can better understand what he is studying only if he can constantly practice. 3) Encourage students to ask, to do research, to challenge themselves in…

Local Reviews

We have been very happy with this company and the quality of their tutor. I have received communication to check that my son was happy and have been asked for feedback good or bad along the way. Nothing to report but positive feedback. The tutor is on time and makes herself available for additional tutoring sessions prior to exams and has been helping my son be more organised. My son is feeling a lot more confident. I can't ask for more than that!?

Inside KensingtonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Harry focused on addition and subtraction skills, including back-checking answers for accuracy, and strengthened understanding of place value using targeted homework tasks.

In Year 8, Zoe worked through surface area and volume problems for both two- and three-dimensional shapes, as well as practicing factorisation with sample questions from her school resources.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Josh completed exam-style bivariate data questions, interpreting two-way tables to identify associations between variables and briefly reviewed explanatory versus response variables in real-world datasets.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student tackling statistics often missed key words in questions, which meant important details were overlooked—"missing key information in question - needs to utilise highlighter better," as one tutor noted.

In Year 8, a learner's written maths work sometimes lacked neatness and clear working, especially when subtracting negative numbers or handling brackets; this led to confusion and made errors harder to spot later.

Meanwhile, a primary student moving into multiplication admitted struggling but tended to focus only on the easier tables, avoiding the more challenging ones during revision sessions. The result: moments of uncertainty and lost time retracing steps.

Recent Achievements

One Kensington tutor noticed a real shift in a Year 11 student's approach to exam prep—after struggling with exam-style questions earlier in the term, she completed nearly an entire practice exam independently over the weekend and tackled tricky bivariate data questions with strong retention.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student who previously hesitated to ask for help is now openly flagging when she finds certain maths problems difficult, allowing her tutor to target those gaps together.

In primary sessions, Scarlett has moved from skipping backchecking steps to now double-checking every subtraction answer out loud and completing her worksheet almost entirely on her own.

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 South Perth Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kensington Primary School.
