Physics Tutor Stratton, WA
I think the most important thing a physics tutor can do for a student would be to find a way to engage them and encourage them to succeed in their studies. To help them actually see that they're getting better, and keep them motivated to continue working the best they can. I am a patient person with a relaxed demeanour. I can understand that each…

Physics Tutor Brabham, WA
The most important thing a physics tutor can do for a student is to create a positive atmosphere for learning. As a result it builds confidence within the student. Also a tutor should help students develop problem solving skills and independent thinking. I'm patient and understanding because of that it eases many students' nerves. That allows me…

I believe the most important things a physics tutor can do for a student are to foster genuine confidence and create a supportive environment. It's crucial to reassure students that needing help doesn't reflect their intelligence but is a step toward improvement. When students make mistakes, I avoid showing frustration and reflect on whether I…

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…

When I teach a concept to a student in a way that they won't forget, then I'm giving them a positive benighted that will be with them for the rest of the lives. I'm good at taking hard maths concepts and explaining and teaching them in simple terms. I often find that things students are struggling with are things that have been tought in ways they…

Physics Tutor Swan View, WA
Show them the way without giving the answer. I feel the downfall of most tutors is giving answers and not letting the students make mistakes so that they can learn from them. Tutors should be almost like your best friend rather than your teacher and should be working with you, not telling you. I'm approachable, professional, and have an excellent…

A tutor should: 1. Break complex concepts into simple, logical and manageable steps, making learning easier and more enjoyable. 2. Being friendly, open and understanding. Without this, students may not feel comfortable effectively learning and asking questions. 3. Providing structured practice with tailored feedback. One of the best ways…

A tutor needs to be able to explain the same thing 100 different ways and still be able to put a student at ease, ensuring them that their learning journey is unique and the tutor is willing to hold their hand at every step.

Tutors should be able to work well with different types of students, as well as know enough maths to explain things in great depth. Tutors need to be patient and helpful, and be able to communicate with children's parents as well.

Inside Herne HillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 Myra worked on adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions—including worded problems—and practiced decimal operations and telling time for upcoming assessments.

In Year 10, Zariah focused on rearranging physics equations (such as d = vt and Ek = ½mv²), solving real-world energy questions, and using scientific notation.

Meanwhile, a Year 12 student tackled projectile motion with oblique launches and explored circular motion concepts like normal force calculations and period/frequency using problem-solving steps.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student's algebra work showed a tendency to commit early to one method, even when the first approach led to simple mistakes, which made correcting errors more difficult.

In Year 12 calculus, skipping the step of multiplying by the derivative in chain rule questions meant correct answers were missed after good starts.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 learner's unstructured working out in equations left them lost mid-problem and unsure which formula to use.

For a Year 4 maths task on time formats, unclear layout between AM/PM and 24-hour clocks caused confusion—so reading back through solutions became frustrating instead of clarifying.

Recent Achievements

One Herne Hill tutor noticed a Year 12 student who previously hesitated to attempt exam-style questions is now asking for more challenging problems and can complete several independently, especially after mastering simultaneous equations.

Another high schooler made a clear leap by not just recalling theorems but confidently applying them to unfamiliar situations without prompting—something they struggled with before.

Meanwhile, a younger student in Year 5 who once avoided mental maths now solves addition and subtraction tasks out loud, checking her own answers and only asking for help when truly stuck. Last session, she finished all ten problems without 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 Midland Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Herne Hill Primary School.
