As I have mentioned in my strength, I consider that it is very important to be an easy person to interact with. It enables students to be comfortable with the tutor and clarify their doubts. It is also important for the tutor to do his homework before tutoring and understand the learning speed of the student. Tutors must not be boring and make…

I consider student engagement in a topic is one of the most important things a tutor can encourage in a student, and as someone beginning a Masters in physics I have plenty of enthusiasm myself for learning maths and science. I think that my enthusiasm will encourage students to to develop an enthusiasm of their own for what they are learning, as…

Simran has done wonders for Kirstin. Kirstin has stated that she feels she is not only doing better but is ahead of the class. Confident to answer the teachers questions to a point where the teacher was saying is there anyone besides Kirstin... brilliant

Inside LeedervilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Thomas focused on persuasive writing structure and practiced reading speeches aloud for pronunciation, alongside techniques to manage nervous feelings before presentations.

Year 8 student Grace tackled scatter plots and reinforced algebraic foundations using visual strategies, then completed targeted questions on algebra terms and the BIMDAS order of operations.

For Year 10, Olivia worked through bivariate data by constructing two-way tables and scatter plots, calculating missing values, and distinguishing between explanatory and response variables within real-world contexts.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student was observed repeatedly erasing answers during maths problem-solving, which caused an inability to build progress in investigation for the correct answer. This habit disrupted the learning flow and left gaps in working out.

In Year 10, one student resisted trying new revision techniques suggested by their tutor, sticking only to familiar methods—this limited exposure to alternative approaches that could fill knowledge gaps before exams.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner displayed low confidence when reading aloud, with nervous fidgeting affecting public speaking tasks; their focus drifted during spelling practice, making it harder to engage fully with feedback and improve fluency.

Recent Achievements

One Leederville tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 10 student who used to freeze up on trigonometry questions—now, after extra practice, she confidently works through exam problems and allocates her own revision time.

In a recent high school maths session, Lewis, who previously struggled with polynomial long division, was able to complete the process accurately and even identified the correct initial factor for a cubic equation without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who would often hesitate before asking for help now raises their hand straight away whenever they're unsure about solving two-way tables.

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 Vincent Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like School Of Isolated and Distance Education.
