I think the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to make learning fun so they don't feel pressured into doing work but if it's fun they are going to enjoy it more. Even little things such as brain breaks are going to benefit the child so they can give their brain a break before diving back into it. I want to make sure that all…

Students spend a major part of a day in school. Many children are unable to get the most of it due to time-constraints and lack of individual attention in a class. However, there are a few students who maintain attention and focus in a classroom environment. Reason is they are more prepared than the rest. If a child follows what is happening in…

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…

To teach everything, mainly the basics, simply so that they can easily remember and pass any barrier or question thrown upon them. Moreover, I think practise questions and exercises will further contribute. Communication understanding and friendliness.

A tutor can bring in enjoyment into students even when they study. Most of the students don't enjoy study time the main reason being they don't understand certain concepts and find it hard.

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…

Very easy process from initial contact and connection with the tutor. It was a great match and my son connected with the tutor straight away. Looking forward to some pleasing results.

Inside Banksia GroveTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Islay focused on calculating and ordering fractions, decimals, and percentages using a Year 6 worksheet, as well as improving inference skills in reading.

For Year 9, Jack worked through surface area and volume questions for cuboids and cubes, applying these concepts to real-life measurement problems.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Emily revised trigonometry skills by practicing with right-angled triangles and tackled algebraic techniques such as expanding brackets involving both positive and negative numbers.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11, test conditions highlighted a challenge: "he can become easily distracted in loud spaces," leading to lower scores than in focused tutoring sessions.

A Year 9 student, despite strong algebra skills, lost marks by misreading questions and not double-checking steps—one note reads, "Needs to slow down and read question properly."

In Year 5, homework was often incomplete; missed practice with times tables slowed progress on fraction tasks.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 learner hesitated to ask for help in class, which meant small misunderstandings persisted into assessments and left her uncertain during multi-step problems.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Banksia Grove noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who used to freeze on multi-step trig problems—last session, he calculated angles without needing prompts and even explained his reasoning out loud.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student who previously avoided seeking help now regularly brings up areas she's unsure about and confidently asks clarifying questions before tackling new maths topics.

In the primary group, one younger learner showed real progress by reading sentences aloud fluently after struggling with decoding; he then breezed through flash cards for simple additions.

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 Wanneroo Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Grandis Primary School.
