Chemistry Tutor Maddington, WA
I believe that patience is very important when it comes to tutoring. This is important because it allows for the student to remain comfortable and ask questions without being worried that they are being judged. Since asking questions is a key aspect of the learning process, impatience would simply limit the students ability to learn. I am able to…

Chemistry Tutor Martin, WA
The purpose of tutoring is to help students help themselves, or to assist or guide them to the point at which they become an independent learner, and thus no longer need a tutor. A tutor is a person with which a student can ask questions freely and without hesitation in a protective and conducive atmosphere. I always tell my students that the only…

The tutor should explain as simple as he/she can to the students for better understanding and solve some examples to achieve appropriate understanding of any concepts. I had a student in year 9 that had so many problems in maths and his grade was D, after working together his grad converted to…

The most importnat thing a tutor needs to do is to guide the students along the right part to revise the things that they have learnt on each particular day and make sure that they actually understand what is going on. Moreover, encouragement and support is also required all along the process of tutoring. My Strength would be that I am…

One of the most important things I can do for a student, I believe, is to be dedicated to meeting their needs and being able to adapt to suit them.

The most important thing a tutor can do is to make the learning process fun, because at the end of the day, if the student isn't enjoying what they are doing(whether it be succeeding or seeing improvement), they aren't going to remember anything. The learning process has to be a clear pathway, with no maybes, and a fun, enjoyable time. I believe…

Great understanding and knowledge of the subject is possibly the best thing a tutor can offer. Making them able to do their current assignment is just not ideal, they should then also be able to understand the core knowledge of the questions, so that when similar questions arrived they would be able to do it themselves, or even better, they might…

Listen to what they are struggling with and do your personal best to help the student to build confidence in themselves and in that area. Furthemore, having a good in-depth subject knowledge will be more than helpful too.

Jackie was so very helpful our daughter really liked her because she was very approachable, took baby steps and was very patient. I liked how she was very prepared for each tutorial.

Inside ForrestfieldTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Jack practised converting fractions to percentages and multiplying fractions, using real-life examples for context.

In Year 9, Sarah worked on simplifying surds and indices, as well as solving equations involving functions.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Alex focused on bivariate data—plotting data points, adding a trend line, and estimating values from the line of best fit to interpret relationships between variables.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11, a student working on normal distribution and compound interest sometimes left assignments incomplete or requires clarification from teacher in regards to the assignment before progressing.

During Year 9 algebra, messy written work—especially when factoring expressions—led to errors that took extra time to untangle.

In Year 6, homework on fraction addition was only partially completed, with some skipped questions making it hard to review progress together.

A Year 3 learner hesitated to attempt new multiplication tables unless confident of perfection first; this slowed practice and limited exposure to trickier facts.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Forrestfield noticed one Year 11 student, who previously mixed up the rules for surds and indices, now solves equations involving both without prompting and has started factoring basic algebraic expressions independently.

In a recent high school session, another student who used to skip graphing questions can now plot x and y values correctly and confidently identifies key points on the graph during practice.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who once hesitated with reading aloud is now volunteering to read passages out loud in each session and answers follow-up questions using details from the text.

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