Science Tutor Fremantle, WA
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to show that they believe in them and their ability to succeed academically and overall. I tell my students on a regular basis "I believe in you!" and "You can do this!" I find that creating this positive and encouraging learning environment is integral. My strengths as a tutor begins with…

There are definitely many important things that a tutor can do for a student but in my opinion, the most important would have to be correcting the mistakes and wrongs. I believe that understanding why a student got a particular question wrong is one of the hardest, yet most important responsibilities of a tutor as he/she has to ensure the student…

In my experience, the most important part of tutoring is instilling confidence in the student that they are able to eventually understand/master the material. No one is perfect, being able to understand different individuals needs and concerns with their class(es) is extremely important. If a student doesn't believe they can do something, they'll…

It is important to be patient with a student; they won't always understand what is being taught and as a tutor you need to be able to explain something in a way that they will understand the concept.

Inside North CoogeeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Chinnu worked on multiplying, dividing, and simplifying fractions, as well as exploring how short division methods can support fraction calculations.

In Year 10, Ethan focused on parabolas and quadratic equations, including a pre-test review of these concepts with problem-solving strategies.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Zoe tackled Graph Theory topics such as Eulerian and Semi-Eulerian paths and practiced breaking down complex problems into smaller steps for more effective problem solving.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often disengaged from problem-solving in maths when an answer wasn't immediately clear, saying "I don't know how to do that" and moving on without applying strategies practiced together. This avoidance made it harder to build confidence and fluency with challenging content.

In Year 5, another student repeatedly left homework incomplete, especially with fraction number line revision—uncertainty about instructions was left unaddressed instead of seeking clarification. As one tutor noted, "he just decides he doesn't know it and moves on," which meant less exposure to new problem types and missed opportunities for feedback.

Recent Achievements

A North Coogee tutor noticed a big shift in Harrison (Year 11), who, after initially missing key ideas about parabolas and quadratics, could explain their main features independently by the second week.

Meanwhile, Dominique (Year 8) began actively asking for help when stuck—last term she hesitated and rarely spoke up, but now she voices her questions right away and tries out "thinking aloud" strategies.

For a younger student, Chinnu (Year 4), blending art with maths led to much quicker times tables recall; last session he completed his graphing homework neatly and even set his own targets for next time.

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 Spearwood Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Fremantle Christian College.
