English Tutor Ocean Reef, WA
A tutor has to want the student to succeed in what they're learning. It's important to know specifically where the student is struggling in order to help them. It would be remiss not to mention that there is a positive impact on the students' performance in school as well. If I explain something and the student doesn't understand, I'll find…

I think the most important a tutor can do for a student is instill confidence in them which will allow them to flourish in any subject no matter how hard it is. There are many ways to help a student become more confident such as explaining difficult concepts to them or showing them how to go about difficult questions and I find it to be a quality…

A good tutor should give to every student: 1- an understanding of the principles in the material; 2- the tools to tackle the material with confidence - typically inductive or deductive reasoning; and 3- an appreciation for the subject. As a homeschool parent I'm always learning new ways to teach STEM. Now semi-retired, I'm a mathematician…

Inside DuncraigTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Leo worked through solving quadratic equations using the null factor law and tackled advanced contextual quadratic problems, including revision on factorisation.

In Year 9, Ben focused on geometry—solving angle diagram questions and exploring congruency proofs with diagrams.

For Year 8, Zara practised expanding and factorising algebraic expressions, then applied these skills to linear relationships in real-world problem scenarios.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 maths, one student avoided writing out full working, instead solving problems on their fingers; this habit made it difficult to catch errors in trigonometry sequences.

A Year 11 student left foundational mistakes unchecked in spreadsheets—"Double-check answers are correct with the investigation as it is easy to make subtle mistakes with spreadsheets," a tutor noted—resulting in repeated small errors across tasks.

In Year 4, times tables practice was limited to familiar patterns, which slowed progress when switching between multiplication sets.

During complex fractions work in Year 7, skipping homework led to missed opportunities for vital repetition and skill consolidation.

Recent Achievements

A Duncraig tutor recently noticed Danielle is now completing her maths tests faster and getting more questions right than before—she used to run out of time and miss marks.

In a Year 9 science session, Holly, who last week hesitated with supplementary angles, was visibly more confident this time and solved them without second-guessing herself.

Meanwhile, Sam in Year 3 has started reciting most of the 4 times tables at a reasonable speed; he used to pause often but now keeps going with much less prompting.

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