I can…

I believe that a tutor should be able to answer the student's questions in the particular subject that he/she is tutoring. In the unlikely scenario that the tutor is unable to answer the question, they will need to check and follow-up with the student as soon as possible. Another thing that a tutor can do is to tailor their teaching style to meet…

I think a good tutor is beyond just a subject matter expert and can be conducive to the development of the student as a whole. I feel the concept of tutoring is very personal and that a tutor should make a student feel comfortable enough to encourage him/her to view the tutor as a confidante. Furthermore, there's the added advantage of being able…

Listening to a student is the most important thing a tutor can do. It allows you to prepare better for future sessions and meet the needs of the students. It also helps you modify your teaching approach to keep the students engaged in the class. I believe my approach to teaching is efficient as I break down concepts to the basics and use multiple…

Local Reviews

Joy is fantastic. Though we only started with Joy in the last term, her work with Mina has made a significant difference to her over all marks. She makes effective use of the time when tutoring, Her explanations are clear, and she checks back to make sure the information is understood. This has really helped Mina's understanding of her maths work. We look forward to the "Joy" effect on next years work.

Inside East PerthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Emily worked through her recent school assignment on area, perimeter, and fractions, carefully reviewing each solution for accuracy.

In Year 8, Samuel focused on highest common factor (HCF), lowest common multiple (LCM), and decimal numbers by revisiting his test questions and tackling a custom worksheet for extra practice.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Mark started the basics of trigonometry with SOHCAHTOA for right-angled triangles, applying these rules to solve introductory problems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student hesitated to attempt new algebra problems, saying "I just can't do this," and would stop before trying alternative approaches.

In a Year 6 maths lesson, another student guessed answers by spotting patterns instead of writing out working, leading to repeated errors in division tasks.

One Year 11 student spent excessive time re-reading test questions—"he wastes the majority of his time reading the question over and over again"—which left less time for actual problem-solving.

Across both primary and senior levels, students' confidence often dropped sharply after setbacks, causing them to lose focus or avoid asking for help when confused.

Recent Achievements

One East Perth tutor noticed that a Year 10 student, who used to hesitate before tests, recently scored 27 out of 30 and now actively asks for new challenges rather than waiting for guidance.

A Year 8 student previously reluctant to admit when stuck has begun voicing specific questions in sessions, allowing her to clarify tricky algebra steps right away instead of guessing.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who would rush through multiplication tables is now pausing to check her work and showing real excitement when she spots patterns—she finished her last worksheet with zero errors.

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 City of Perth Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like SEDA College WA (East Perth).
