Modern History Tutor Peppermint Grove, WA
I think that the most important thing for a tutor to do for their students is listen to them and continuously adapt their teaching method perhaps by finding new ways to explain concepts or creating new activities and games to help break down challenging content. Learning can be difficult which is why I also believe that it is also important to be…

Help them to believe that they are capable and they can achieve. Having a positive and supportive relationship is key to the children trusting you which in time then supports their learning. Being able to identify the child’s area of needs and strengths and work on them to drive their learning forward. Also building a positive and supportive…

The most important thing a tutor can do is identify where a student may be missing a piece of information or has skipped a step of understanding, which is blocking further academic progress. This type of close observation is what is (in my opinion) most often missed by classroom teachers. - Educational adaptability. Can quickly change methods of…

I believe a tutor's role is to guide, facilitate and provide feedback on the student's own work. It is essential that the student independently develops the skills necessary to become competent. A tutor's role in this process is to encourage the student to explore their own knowledge, and provide tips to consolidate their understanding, and make…

A successful tutuor does more than merely help a student to raise their grade. In my opinion, a tutor should make an impression on a student.

I believe that the most important thing a tutor can do is to help students help themselves, or to assist or guide them so that they become independent learners. For this, tutors should have a positive outlook by believing that things can be changed through action. They should also have the desire to help others by showing comprehension, empathy,…

I think patience and empathy are the most important skills for a tutor. If people are willing to clearly express themselves in a safe environment then they are more receptive to corrections in an unconfrontational manner and are more willing to express issues they themselves are having.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is leaving them with a range of tools for study that they can use on their own at school or if I’m not around.

Most importantly, listen! A lot of students don't know where they are struggling but give it away with the questions they ask or the steps they take to try and solve problems. Have more than one method or way of explaining things. People have different learning styles and different past experience to attach new things onto. Being organised,…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do to help a student is, first find out what they know and then build from there.

I think my biggest strength is that I also have…

I think a tutor has to cater their teaching methods according to particular students. For example, if you find that the student best learns by a tactile approach, I would recommend using more activities that help them learn rather than just working through questions on a piece of paper. I think this can make a big difference in the student's…

Specific, targeted focus on the students areas of weakness.

Give them the resources to be their best student. Rather than just giving them the answer outright, set up a pathway for them to solve their problem themselves.

Inside Shenton ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Jack worked on converting between proper and improper fractions with denominators of 10, 100, and 1000, as well as placing decimals accurately on a number line.

In Year 8, Emily revised integers and negative numbers alongside substituting values into simple algebraic expressions.

For Year 9, Sam focused on factorisation techniques and applying the first three index laws to simplify algebraic terms.

Recent Challenges

Jacob did not attempt the homework set for him last lesson, especially in advanced algebra and index laws, which limited progress with new topics.

In Year 10 Physics, skipping written diagrams made abstract problems harder to visualise and led to confusion when tackling free body questions.

For a Year 6 learner, not writing out working for fraction and subtraction tasks meant errors went unnoticed and wasted time retracing steps.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student's messy approach to telling time on clock faces made it difficult to spot where understanding broke down during practice.

Recent Achievements

One Shenton Park tutor recently noticed a big shift with Jacob in Year 10 Maths: after struggling to remember each step, he started writing out his full working for index law problems, which helped him finish homework faster and more accurately than before.

A senior student who previously hesitated to sketch graphs can now confidently draw derivatives and explain how they relate to the original function—something that used to cause confusion.

Meanwhile, in primary sessions, Pria has become much more proactive about telling her tutor which maths topics she finds tricky instead of guessing or staying quiet.

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 Subiaco Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Rosalie Primary School.
