I think the most important things a tutor can do are build confidence, create a safe space to learn, and make the subject understandable. Its not just about teaching content its about helping the student believe they can succeed. A good tutor should listen, be patient, and celebrate small wins along the way so the student feels supported and…

Science Tutor Darch, WA
Not only identify potential errors made by the student but also shed light on how to improve them. I find this method especially effective when using personal experiences. Providing practice questions including worked solutions is also key aspect of my teaching. I personally used to struggle with maths in primary school and was able to find…

Science Tutor Padbury, WA
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is guide them towards building self-esteem, confidence in themselves and ensure that when the tuition is over the student is able to recall the hours with the tutor and so be able to work through new challenging material by themselves. I am an incredibly dedicated and enthusiastic individual,…

Science Tutor Landsdale, WA
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…

It's important to be understanding, to listen to what a student (or parent) wants to get out of tutoring, and to focus on the student's goals. It's also important to be clear in your teaching, and to come up with creative and interesting ways to teach each student, as every student is different. I have a very enthusiastic and positive approach to…

Ashley had a great tutor experience with Harrison, I was very impressed with her feedback, she said she felt very comfortable with Harrison and that he explained things very well. She walked away from that lesson very comfortable which impressed me as she is very shy.

Inside AshbyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Petrone worked on a geometry problem involving kites and the equations of diagonals, then practised **inequalities and exponential equations**.

For Year 10, Jayden revised **inverse trigonometric functions** including angle of elevation and depression, then received an introduction to parabolas.

Meanwhile, Year 6 Lily reviewed **fractions, ratios, and percentages** after a quick check of her times tables knowledge during her lesson.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student faced difficulties identifying when to add or multiply probabilities, especially distinguishing between independent and dependent events—this led to confusion in complex probability questions.

In Year 9, one learner's algebraic work was hampered by skipping key steps in rearranging equations, making it hard to trace errors; as a tutor noted, "she made the denominators the same when multiplying fractions which was unnecessary."

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student often left homework incomplete or rushed times tables practice, so gaps in basic skills persisted into test situations. Frustration sometimes surfaced when handwriting couldn't keep up with thinking—answers were blurted out before careful checking.

Recent Achievements

One Ashby tutor recently noticed a Year 10 student who, after struggling with trigonometry all term, independently calculated unknown sides using sin, cos, and tan on her calculator for the first time—she'd previously waited for prompts each step.

Another high schooler moved from just scraping average to exceeding her class's average exam mark by 16%, having started to check her own work for errors instead of leaving questions blank when unsure.

Meanwhile, a younger student who used to avoid asking questions now regularly stops to clarify what key words mean before moving forward with maths problems.

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 Spring Hill Primary School.
