Economics Tutor St James, WA
Most tutors focus on the academic side of things for a student without catering specifically to the child's needs. Each child is different and I believe that teaching methods has to be adjusted accordingly. Even the pace of teaching is crucial as students not understanding the concept makes the whole tutoring session irrelevant. I am a out-going,…

Economics Tutor St James, WA
A good tutor should be able to provide perspective. A good tutor should also be able to listen and understand the student so that the most effective learning approach can take place. A tutor should be adaptable. Patience; as the youngest member in my family I've had to learn to be patient, about everything, even the simple task of waiting to use…

Often if students are seeking tutoring, they are struggling or in a place of doubt about their abilities. Providing a comfortable, safe environment where students can feel reassured about their own abilities is so important. I know before I developed a passion for mathematics especially, I struggled with and detested the subject. As soon as I…

As previously mentioned, I think the most important thing a tutor can do for their student is to listen. If you do not listen to the students expectations and responsiveness to the material then the sessions will not be productive, and the student will not improve. My strengths are that I am an incredibly patient tutor, as well as a good listener.…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is focus on that student, listen to what they want and then create a personalised lesson just for them. The major difference between a class and a tutor is how the tutor is able to focus on the one student, and maximising this chance and truly listening to the student and helping them…

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,…

From my experience, the desire to learn and succeed must come from within, but once that feeling is there it is the tutor's responsibility to cultivate and grow this passion and to translate it into continuous improvement. Hence, one of the most important things that a tutor can do is understand the student's needs and to meet those needs in a…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to listen and understand the student's learning style and being able to adapt accordingly.

In my opinion, a tutor has to be able to communicate effectively with a student. There is a clear difference between having knowledge and actually being able to teach a particular field of study. It is absolutely vital that a tutor speaks to a student in a way that is easily understood by the student but at the same time also engaging. This way of…

Make a connection so the student wants to study. It’s very important that you create a bond with the student so they can motivate themselves and use the study plans and tools to improve with not only my help but also on their own. I believe this heavily aligns with the philosophy that Ezy math promotes. I’m a patient and capable teacher who…

To explain things in such a way as if they aren't familiar with the concept. This way they are able to understand what they are doing and why it is done in such a way.

The role of a tutor in a student's education is both significant and multifaceted.

It is a necessity for a tutor to establish rapport with their students.

Inside South PerthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Riley worked through place value to support multiplication, then practiced short division using worded problems for real-world context.

In Year 8, Hannah focused on mean, median, mode, and range calculations along with large addition and subtraction tasks from the Year 8 syllabus.

For Year 9, Jay tackled trigonometry concepts including SOHCAHTOA as well as working with gradients and y-intercepts by linking tables to graphs during algebraic exercises.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 English, "written expression" stood out as a recurring challenge—one student's ideas were strong when spoken but "just needed to write it down," especially in creative writing where grammar and holistic articulation held them back.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 Maths lesson revealed over-reliance on familiar problems: notes were used well for standard tasks, but applying them to unfamiliar calculator questions was avoided.

A Year 7 student working on fractions and percentages hesitated to trust their own working and often looked for patterns instead of understanding concepts. This sometimes left mistakes hidden until revision sessions.

Recent Achievements

One South Perth tutor recently noticed a big change in a Year 10 student who had struggled to link fractions, decimals, and percentages—after several sessions, she could explain their interconnections on her own and used new strategies without prompting.

In Year 12, John moved from being hesitant about statistics to independently solving mode, median, range, and mean problems; he now asks for clarification rather than leaving answers blank.

Meanwhile, Riley in Year 5 went from guessing short division answers to working through problems fluently with just occasional place value hints. Last week he finished his worksheet without errors.

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 South Perth Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Wesley College.
