Be a good friend with the student first. Teach him as if he his friend is teaching him. Be strict at a times when he is not listening but its good for him so its ok to be strict sometimes. I catch the loop hole of the child where he has maximum tendency to make mistakes. So that I can focus on that main area. I am a very friendly teacher and…

I consider effective communication to be very important between the tutor and the student as it is essential for the proper understanding of what the tutor is teaching. Feedback for the student is also very important because it allows the student to work on their weaknesses and improve. I think I can offer multiple ways to explain a topic. This…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to make them believe themselves when they got frustrated with the problem which they have trouble solving. Since I am a professionally trained coach, I have confidence in teaching and mentoring kids. I am also a very patient person and am always happy to answer any…

Students are different from each other, some are fast learner while others are the opposite. As a tutor, I think its important to deliver a lesson that is easy to comprehend regardless of how academic the students are. I am more to lean to visual than texts. Since one of my hobbies is drawing, I would use this skill to deliver visual aid to…

Help the student completely understand the concepts at hand. I personally don't believe anyone can inherently be "bad at math". If anything, they just take longer to understand than others. As long as they possess enough willpower to do so, anything is possible. Another thing is that a student must leave the session learning something new. I am…

A teacher can do the most if they can interpret they could enrich knowledge of their students with their way of teaching and most importantly build a strong knowledge of good practices and bad practices in terms of studies. I can change my way of teaching according to the student's personality and preference. Let us suppose there might be…

A good tutor should give to every student: 1- an understanding of the principles in the material; 2- the tools to tackle the material with confidence - typically inductive or deductive reasoning; and 3- an appreciation for the subject. As a homeschool parent I'm always learning new ways to teach STEM. Now semi-retired, I'm a mathematician…

I believe encouragement is the most important thing a tutor can do. By focusing on what they have achieved rather then what they haven't, the children can gain a sense of self worth and achievement, making them more likely to want to learn more. By always being there to support them through difficult content, a tutor can develop trust with the…

The most crucial things a tutor can do for a student are academic supervision, human connection, and consistency, and the combination of these can possibly redefine a class, subject, or school more generally for a learner.

Local Reviews

We are very happy with Vivian. My daughter likes her a lot.
Michelle, Ocean Reef

Inside Ocean ReefTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 student Ella worked on understanding binomial and Bernoulli distributions, along with differentiating trigonometric functions using practice questions.

In Year 11, Josh focused on normal distribution problems and interpreting sample proportions and confidence intervals from real data sets.

Meanwhile, Year 7 student Sophie strengthened her skills with converting fractions to percentages and practiced adding fractions using visual aids for clarity.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student struggled to translate word problems into equations, often confusing "multiplying by two" with "squaring"—as a tutor noted, "he wrote 2x instead of x²."

In Year 10 algebra, copying working from previous examples led to confusion when faced with unfamiliar questions; this habit blocked real understanding.

A senior student in statistics needed repeated prompting to use formulas for confidence intervals, hesitating without clear steps and missing the link between terms and methods.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner relied on times tables charts for basic multiplication, which slowed progress on multi-step problems and chipped away at her confidence mid-task.

Recent Achievements

One Ocean Reef tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to hesitate with tricky probability problems now confidently chooses between Binomial and Discrete Random Variables, showing real independence.

A Year 11 student who struggled to see mistakes in her maths test recently reviewed her answers, understood where she went wrong, and fixed them herself without prompting.

At the primary level, one younger learner has shifted from guessing at decimal placement to consistently lining up numbers correctly—she now pauses and checks before answering, rather than rushing through. Last session, she placed every decimal accurately on her own.

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 Joondalup Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Simon Peter Catholic Primary School.
