Creating a pleasant environment for a student is, in my opinion, one of a tutor's most crucial roles. This is because it fosters a positive relationship, which makes the student feel comfortable disclosing when and what they are finding difficult. I have good communication skills with kids of all ages, and am patient, and am kind. To make sure…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student are to: 1 - place a focus on topics the student is struggling with 2 - teach these topics in a way that is different from what they are being taught in class. From a basic principles foundation and adding complexity as the student understands the topic more. I am currently a 3rd-year…

Personally, the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is not only teach them a certain concept but rather equip them with the tools to be able to learn the concept and future concepts themselves. Whether that may be going through study strategies or instilling motivation, the main crux of the job should be so that the student can…

I believe that one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student, is to help them build confidence in their own academic abilities by supporting them in a way that reinforces their sense of self achievement.

Give them confidence! Students often require a tutor not only because they cannot cope with content, but because they have a lack of confidence in the subject.

To rest the student's mind, make something that they used to struggle with understandable. Make sure they get less but not more pressure by attending more tutoring outside of class.

Local Reviews

Amazing experience, helpful friendly and understanding that my child has a different way of learning. Highly recommended
Michelle Williams, Alexander Heights

Inside Alexander HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Chloe worked on calculating mean, median, mode, and range for different data sets and practiced representing this information using tables.

In Year 9, Ethan focused on solving linear equations and understanding isotopes and half-life in science, including some worksheet activities.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Olivia reviewed simple interest calculations alongside forming and solving linear equations, with extra attention given to real-world worded questions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student was encouraged to write down thoughts when tackling algebra, but often relied on mental calculations—leading to missed steps in rearranging equations and errors like "misreading values and question."

In a Year 7 lesson, incomplete notes on angles meant confusion persisted between co-interior and alternate angle types.

One senior student practiced only familiar times tables during revision; as noted, this avoided weaker areas and limited growth in harder multiplication tasks.

In Year 8, reluctance to show working ("does not want to/ does not understand the step by step approach") slowed progress solving fractions.

Recent Achievements

One Alexander Heights tutor noticed a Year 9 student who used to get stuck on equations now working out both x and y values independently and even identifying whether the gradient was negative or positive—a real leap from last term's hesitation.

In a recent high school session, another student who rarely spoke up began talking through her maths thinking aloud and showed more interest in tackling new problems, rather than waiting for prompts.

Meanwhile, a primary-aged learner completed all her school holiday homework on probability without reminders and could clearly explain her answers when asked.

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 Ballajura Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Alinjarra Primary School.
