The most important thing a tutor can do is to understand the pupil’s learning style and adapt the teaching to which best suits the pupil. It is imperative to understand that everyone absorbs knowledge differently and thus it is importantly that a tutor understands that and adapts accordingly. My greatest strength is my ability to understand…

Science Tutor Highgate, WA
If I can make a student begin thinking more about the subject than just a grade to obtain, I would have felt that I made one more curious person. Curiosity is the root of knowledge in my opinion, and it would be the seed that I can share with the students that I engage with. I believe, they would lie in science, especially with regard to my…

Make them feel confident before they walk into any test/exam! If the student feels they have had effectively prepared and understand the topic well, they will have confidence in the test room which will allow them to perform to the best of their ability. To do this, you must be patient and kind with them when they make mistakes so they have a safe…

It is important to build a relationship with the student and to always guide them but not push them to their limits. It is also important that the student understands how its done, while having them memorise a pattern is easy, allowing them to understand how to solve these types of questions will allow them to apply their solution to more things.…

I think that it's really important to be a good listener so that you can use feedback from students to improve your teaching. Not everyone learns in the same way so it's really important to work with each student to find the learning tehniques that work best for them. It's also important to recognise that each student could prefer different…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is to teach a student how to pursue their own studies, that is, if I can teach a student how to study without the need for a tutor, that's worth more than tutoring them the whole year and it will serve them well for the rest of their life. An excellent tutor will keep their students motivated and…

Inside NorthbridgeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Sophie worked through volume and surface area of 3D shapes as well as an introduction to Pythagoras' theorem, using visual diagrams to support understanding.

For Year 10, Marcus focused on simplifying algebraic fractions and solving simultaneous equations with step-by-step practice from his homework set.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Emily revised exponential growth and decay alongside compound interest problems, applying formulas in real-world contexts for clarity.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student's session was cut short as time only allowed for homework completion, leaving no space to review missed concepts—"need to prepare altogether next time so lesson can be concise."

In Year 9 maths, one student forgot last week's trigonometry homework, limiting progress on bearings questions.

A Year 5 learner relied heavily on mental sums for fractions and percentages; this led to skipped working steps and confusion when problems became longer.

Meanwhile, a senior chemistry student struggled to recall rules for surds and indices without regular revision outside tutoring hours, making exam prep more stressful than needed.

Recent Achievements

One Northbridge tutor noticed a Year 9 student who previously hesitated to ask for help now actively seeks clarification on statistics questions and double-checks his working without prompting.

In a recent high school session, another student who'd struggled with surds and indices was able to recall the rules independently and correctly apply them in several practice problems.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student—who used to skip showing her full workings—now carefully writes out every step when tackling perimeter and area questions, even checking her calculations before moving on.

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 Perth Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St George's Anglican Grammar School.
