Help them learn in a way that means they can enjoy a subject. Its important to find a way to make study fun and validating for them which will help with their engagement. Scaffolding and helping them take small steps is important as this allows for a student to be successful 'most of the time', which develops confidence and validates the effort…

Accountability. Ensuring if you are unable to answer the student's questions initially, you take initiative to research and get back to them later on. Involve the student in their learning. Listen carefully to their opinions and incorporate it into how a study plan is formed, rather than the tutor making decisions for the student. Patience…

I consider active listening and patience most important because if you don't have those, the student will get discouraged and you won't be able to help them fully. The student's needs always come first. My strengths are that I'm kind, compassionate, patient and I listen to the student and make sure I understand what they're having difficulties…

I think one of the most important things an english tutor can do is help a student build confidence. A lot of the time, students know more than they think they just need someone to guide them, encourage them, and help them see their own progress. It’s also really important to create a safe, supportive space where they feel comfortable asking…

some should require more creativity. It is of course a mistake to drill students with boring problems until they hate the subject, but it is also a mistake to let them do "interesting" or "discovery based" math all the time, and not make them practice the techniques they discover. One can first get students to solve them with other techniques…

The ability to explain concepts and solutions to problems in a way that the student can understand. What can look very simple to us can seem like a foreign language to our students, so the skill to break these down and make the student believe that what just looked impossible to them is actually very doable is invaluable as an english tutor.…

Inside EllenbrookTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Zariah worked through addition and subtraction using the split strategy and moved on to building confidence with two times tables and doubling.

Year 8 student Jayde focused on interpreting box-and-whisker plots, stem-and-leaf plots, and probability tree diagrams for upcoming assessments.

For Year 10, Arvin tackled financial mathematics by practicing compound and simple interest calculations alongside percentage increases and decreases, applying real-world scenarios for context.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student frequently guessed answers to worded percentage problems instead of working through each step; as noted, "she needs a bit of improvement with not guessing the answers and reading the question."

In Year 10 trigonometry, a student struggled when multiple triangles were involved in word problems, leading to confusion about which values to use.

A senior student tackling geometric series hesitated to attempt multi-step questions unless formulas were explicitly provided.

One primary learner skipped showing steps for column addition and subtraction—this often hid regrouping errors and slowed progress on more advanced tasks.

Recent Achievements

One Ellenbrook tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 9 student who used to rely heavily on answer sheets; now, she's tackling worksheet problems independently and only checks answers at the end.

In another high school session, a Year 10 boy who often rushed through algebra questions without understanding now slows down to break apart equations—he recently filled in a table of values accurately for the first time.

Meanwhile, a younger student who once hesitated to ask for help started raising her hand when stuck and even chose to read out loud during the lesson.

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 St Helena's Catholic Primary School.
