Tutor Koondoola, WA
The most important thing is to create a environment in which the student is not afraid to ask questions and in which every question is considered important. A tutor has to respect that everyone learns differently and has to be prepared to re-explain things a few times, maybe in different ways for the student. I am a good listener, I believe I…

Tutor Koondoola, WA
Essentially the most important thing is for the tutor to give the student a positive experience with learning. I believe this is more valuable than the academic lesson learnt, because it reinforces an eagerness to engage in learning which they can carry throughout their entirelives (since they come to associate learning with positive experiences…

To me, the most important thing as a tutor is to listen.

I think it is very important for a tutor to be friendly and encouraging, to establish a good rapport with the student. It is important for a tutor to explain things in a way that the student is able to understand at their level, and to help the student to actually understand what is going on, rather than merely memorising formulas to pass a test.…

A tutor should help instill confidence in a student, and make them realize that no challenge is too complex if you approach it the right way. Tutors should build students up to be independent learners that can apply knowledge to unfamiliar problems, even without guidance.

It is important for tutors to explain the concept in a way that gives the student true understanding rather than just a shortcut for test questions. This way the student can apply that knowledge to different situations. I've tutored my younger siblings throughout school so I'm good at working with kids who like to complain that it's too hard. I'm…

Inside StirlingTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Bronte focused on trigonometry, including solving worded problems and applying Pythagoras' Theorem in 3D contexts like finding the longest pole that fits inside a rectangular prism.

Year 10 student Cohen worked on sketching and transforming quadratic graphs (translations up/down or left/right), as well as identifying key features of exponential graphs.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Andrew reviewed exponentials and logarithms, practicing algebraic solutions to equations involving these functions ahead of his test.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student recently left several worksheets unfinished for school homework, which led to gaps in understanding two-way tables and Venn diagrams—"worksheets 2–4 from class were uncompleted," as a tutor noted.

In Year 8 maths, one student had only written a single page of notes across three lessons, resulting in most of a practice test being unattempted and unfamiliarity with core content like the five-number summary.

For Year 2 maths, Astrid sometimes overthinks basic subtraction (such as 7 – 1), slowing her down on timed activities and leaving less energy for multi-step problems later in the lesson.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Stirling noticed that a Year 9 student, after previously rushing through tests and missing key steps, has started using "talking aloud" and backchecking strategies—now catching more of his own errors before submitting work.

In a recent session with a senior high school student, the tutor observed her independently completing all calculations for an assignment ahead of time, something she'd struggled to organise on her own just weeks earlier.

Meanwhile, a younger student who once relied heavily on setup help can now solve column addition unaided and subtraction problems up to three digits almost entirely by herself.

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 Osborne Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Balcatta Senior High School.
