For most students, biology doesn't seem that hard. The content isn't that intimidating and if you put in the time, more often than not results will follow.
Simplify lessons such that the students will understand and will not forget easily. I do draft personal time table for each of my student, based on their peculiar situations. I have a long teaching stamina, and retentive memory. I can easily know when students are not understanding my lessons. I do request feedback easily for improvement. I…
Teach them skills to master the subject.

Teach them different ways to look at things.
Be a friend/listening ear when they need. Patient and caring. I believe that caring about my student's overall wellbeing is just as important as their grades. Resilience, not all methods of teaching will work…
As I said in the previous questions, the most important thing a biology tutor can do for a student is instilling the importance of Math and Science to everyday lives. Sharing knowledge to them and consequently, providing reasons why they should love the subjects is one of your measures to be a successful tutor. For me, a good tutor is not only…
Along with the subject matter, we can motivate our students and generate interest in our field. A tutor can point out the mistakes made by student and can correct them. With overall 12 years of teaching experience (7 years for lower secondary and 5 years for class 11, 12, bachelor and Master levels) provided me a self confidence and expertise in…
Be empathetic and put yourself in the shoes of the student whole teaching them, to understand how they view the subject at hand and how you can help them understand it better. It's also important to be well prepared and to be willing to listen to the student's ideas and concerns and open to research anything needed in more depth to help the…
As a biology tutor the most important behaviour is to remain open and encouraging. This allows them to be honest and seek help when they need it rather than feeling embarrassed that they are struggling to understand a concept. I believe I am very competent at listening and using deductive reasoning to best approach a situation and work towards…
Ensure that they are confident in their work and make them feel comfortable with the subject, even if they find it challenging.

Above all else, I believe a biology tutor should prioritise student wellbeing. Beyond academic achievement, it's essential to foster a sense of belonging, confidence and self-worth in each student. This involves attentive listening, emotional support, and creating a safe, judgement-free space. Additionally, empowering students to take ownership of…
Illustrating the solution, explaining with the right examples, respecting everyone's views and value every question however simple it maybe. Making the discourse interesting and interactive. These are the most important things a biology tutor must deliver while teaching students. Simplifying complex topics with day to day examples is what I do. I…
According to me, the most important thing a biology tutor can do for a student is be a good listener. It is very important to know and understand why a student is facing a problem in a particular situation so that it can be tackled. The tutor should also be compassionate and patient toward the student and should be able to adapt themselves as per…
Besides achieving acad3mic grades, i believe teaching the kids about respect and boundaries are just as important. The best way to teach them this is froma young age so they can properly grow into a respectable adult Since i am not too old yet, i believe i can connect with the kids better than most people. Additionally, i am also fun and easy to…
Ensure that the student is gaining confidence and is improving. I believe its not the final result that counts, but its ensuring the student's mental health is taken care or whilst the student is experiencing a steady improvement. I believe I am a person with strong moral values that can grasp concepts relatively quickly. I also memorise content…
A good tutor can change the student's mindset and make them better people. Having a good tutor makes the subject automatically interesting and students tend to invest more time and put more effort into it. I am a very patient and dedicated person. Also, I like to make sure that every person/student I teach, understands everything thoroughly. I try…
Being patient with a student has to be the most important. Learning isn’t the same for everyone and some areas of learning are harder for some people. Remaining patient and staying kind while a child is learning is extremely important. I am a patient person, who can think creatively and how to teach subjects in different ways to suit different…
Pre-assessing the student, teaching and post-assessing him/her is very important. Trying to understand what learning methods are more suitable for each student and making a note of them are also equally important. Identifying any SENs and catering them suitably, is another major act. Friendly manner and professionalism
Patience with kids
Ability…
Being a student myself, i literally have lots of doubts that i would really want to clear and get an idea of the topics that i feel might trouble me a bit, so i feel that, a biology tutor must posses always be available to solve and manage all the doubts that the student can ponder upon. I can clearly understand the mindset of students that i have…
I am able to explain each topic clearly. I am patient and can comprehend each student's learning style and teach them in that way. I use innovative methods to teach a topic, for example, make a fun quiz for the student each week. I have good communication skills and am able to explain a particular topic clearly.
My teaching method involves…
- Inspiring students to achieve their goals and allowing them to take credit and ownership of their own learning while tutors guide them
- Being able to effectively communicate with students I am an inspiring tutor who is able to connect with students of any age. I am able to adapt my teaching style according to the ways in which any particular…
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…
One of the most important factors would be to never give up on your students, where it is your obligation as a biology tutor to try and understand the student's mentality and mindset and accommodate the teaching style to ensure the student understands the content rather than endorsing mindless memorization. I am a student myself, who learns at a…
I know it is only early days but Harley and Owen seem to have '˜clicked'. They are working really well and not only is Harley's confidence growing but also his understanding of the maths chapters they have been studying has improved. I no longer have to hassle him to do his homework - always a bonus!
Henry has had 3 sessions with Justin so far, and it is going very well. His current topic is algebra and he feels that he is benefitting from the additional assistance. Justin is punctual, helpful (even stayed back an extra 10-15 minutes last week to help Henry with a problem-solving sheet) and is very pleasant to have around.
Thank you for your email. I am really enjoying working with David, he makes the study fun and very interesting. We're working through some gaps in my knowledge and then I am greatly looking forward to getting into the much more complicated and exciting math.
Biology tutoring in South Perth
For most students, biology doesn't seem that hard. The content isn't that intimidating and if you put in the time, more often than not results will follow.
No wonder most students get discouraged once they move up the curriculum. Getting the results becomes less about putting in the hours by going over the concepts and more about structuring the knowledge and connecting the dots. It's not simple revision anymore, and without someone to guide them, students can easily lose focus.
If you are thinking about finding someone to support your child's learning, we can match you with a local biology tutor in South Perth.
We've found that through guided learning, students are more likely to pick up skills they can use to learn other subjects and even make good decisions in their personal life as well. All we need is to have a chat with you so we can figure out what kind of support your child needs.
And this is how it works.
The tutoring is done at your home or a local library, wherever works for you. And the fees are simple - just an hourly rate, no extra fees.
The first lesson comes as a risk-free trial with a money-back guarantee. That means if for whatever reason your child doesn't click with the tutor right away, no need to worry - you let us know and we set up another trial.
As simple as that.
