For me one of the most crucial aspects is to comprehend a student's academic abilities and then I will create a study schedule accordingly. Additionally, I will try to create a comfortable learning environment where the student feels at ease to ask questions and clarify doubts without any hesitation. Furthermore, I will periodically track the…

I consider active listening and patience most important because if you don't have those, the student will get discouraged and you won't be able to help them fully. The student's needs always come first. My strengths are that I'm kind, compassionate, patient and I listen to the student and make sure I understand what they're having difficulties…

Accountability. Ensuring if you are unable to answer the student's questions initially, you take initiative to research and get back to them later on. Involve the student in their learning. Listen carefully to their opinions and incorporate it into how a study plan is formed, rather than the tutor making decisions for the student. Patience…

I think one of the most important things an english tutor can do is help a student build confidence. A lot of the time, students know more than they think they just need someone to guide them, encourage them, and help them see their own progress. It’s also really important to create a safe, supportive space where they feel comfortable asking…

Help them learn in a way that means they can enjoy a subject. Its important to find a way to make study fun and validating for them which will help with their engagement. Scaffolding and helping them take small steps is important as this allows for a student to be successful 'most of the time', which develops confidence and validates the effort…

Explain the topics in a way that the student understands, for example some students will require a topic to be broken into several small parts to be able to understand it. My strengths as a tutor are that I am very patient, I am flexible with my delivery skills, I am friendly and I am approachable and easy to talk to. All of these skills I…

Improving confidence in a student's ability, I believe, is the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student.

some should require more creativity. It is of course a mistake to drill students with boring problems until they hate the subject, but it is also a mistake to let them do "interesting" or "discovery based" math all the time, and not make them practice the techniques they discover. One can first get students to solve them with other techniques…

Local Reviews

Aryan has only just started working with Hallie but her confidence has already started growing. After her first session she seemed enthused and said she feels as though she's learnt more in an hour than she is in the last 2 years!! Aryan is able to break things down and explain problems in way Hallie understands.

Inside Upper SwanTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Caitlin worked on solving area and perimeter problems involving abstract shapes, with extra focus on breaking down complex worded questions.

Year 9 student Olivia revised adding and subtracting decimals, completed teacher-assigned classwork, and tackled more advanced problem-solving through her online homework.

For Year 10, Shania practiced OLNA-style division questions and reviewed past exam problems to strengthen her maths fundamentals.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student was observed repeatedly skipping note-taking in maths, leading to confusion when revisiting formulas for circles and measurement.

"He still tries to complete questions with minimal working shown," one tutor noted, which made multi-step problems harder and left errors unnoticed until late in the process.

In Year 11 Physics, difficulty selecting the correct equation meant extra time spent searching rather than solving—confidence dropped as questions grew more complex.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 writer struggled to concentrate on spelling while forming sentences, resulting in frequent misspellings of non-phonetic words.

Missed homework also limited opportunities for targeted feedback.

Recent Achievements

One Upper Swan tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 10 student's approach to algebra—after struggling with simplification, he started highlighting like terms on his own and no longer needed reminders.

In Year 11 physics, another student who used to miss flaws in experimental setups is now independently identifying issues that could impact results, showing much stronger analytical thinking.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who previously rushed perimeter problems now takes time to write out working clearly and checks answers for errors; last session, he solved every worded perimeter question without any help.

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 Bullsbrook Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Anne Hamersley Primary School.
