Physics Tutor Ocean Reef, WA
I believe to explain a concept that the student can understand is paramount in the role of a physics tutor. For this to be done the student needs to comprehend the simple skills that leads up to the final difficult concept. If a tutor is able to explain this complex concept by explaining the simple skills and breaking down the concept in a simpler…

I consider an improvement in confidence incredibly significant to a child's attitude to learning. If a student is confident in their abilities to learn a subject, then they will be more likely to put effort into correcting their mistakes. This confidence and ability to recognise improvement will directly and positively affect the student's self…

The most important thing a physics tutor can do for a student is develop problem solving skills and to help them to make connections in their own mind, leading to greater retention in the long term. A tutor’s end goal shouldn’t be to teach a student how to work out a specific problem, it should be to get the student to a point where they can…

One of the best qualities of a physics tutor is to create a personal connection to your student. While tutoring classes in the past, I would encompass fun activities within the lesson in order to build an easy rapport with students in the beginning, making the student feel at ease, and comfortable, putting the student in a position in which he or…

One of the most important things a physics tutor can do for a student is to guide the student in a practical way rather than sticking to the theory. Furthermore, it is also important that a tutor acknowledges that the level of grasping capability of a student when it comes to the knowledge in Math is different from another student. And it is…

Inside Ocean ReefTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 student Ella worked on understanding binomial and Bernoulli distributions, along with differentiating trigonometric functions using practice questions.

In Year 11, Josh focused on normal distribution problems and interpreting sample proportions and confidence intervals from real data sets.

Meanwhile, Year 7 student Sophie strengthened her skills with converting fractions to percentages and practiced adding fractions using visual aids for clarity.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student struggled to translate word problems into equations, often confusing "multiplying by two" with "squaring"—as a tutor noted, "he wrote 2x instead of x²."

In Year 10 algebra, copying working from previous examples led to confusion when faced with unfamiliar questions; this habit blocked real understanding.

A senior student in statistics needed repeated prompting to use formulas for confidence intervals, hesitating without clear steps and missing the link between terms and methods.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner relied on times tables charts for basic multiplication, which slowed progress on multi-step problems and chipped away at her confidence mid-task.

Recent Achievements

One Ocean Reef tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to hesitate with tricky probability problems now confidently chooses between Binomial and Discrete Random Variables, showing real independence.

A Year 11 student who struggled to see mistakes in her maths test recently reviewed her answers, understood where she went wrong, and fixed them herself without prompting.

At the primary level, one younger learner has shifted from guessing at decimal placement to consistently lining up numbers correctly—she now pauses and checks before answering, rather than rushing through. Last session, she placed every decimal accurately 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 Joondalup Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Simon Peter Catholic Primary School.
