Carla

English Tutor Alexander Heights, 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…

Encourage them! Sometimes the issue isn't in the difficulty of the concept, but that they don't believe in themselves. I believe bringing the right attitude of positive reinforcement can really make a difference as well as demonstrating a ton of examples, so the student can establish a pattern. I believe everyone can be good at Maths. It just…

I consider the time and space an english tutor gives to the student the most important thing. It is all about what they, as the student, are comfortable with.

The ability to explain concepts and solutions to problems in a way that the student can understand. What can look very simple to us can seem like a foreign language to our students, so the skill to break these down and make the student believe that what just looked impossible to them is actually very doable is invaluable as an english tutor.…

Local Reviews

Amazing experience, helpful friendly and understanding that my child has a different way of learning. Highly recommended
Michelle Williams, Alexander Heights

Inside Alexander HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Chloe worked on calculating mean, median, mode, and range for different data sets and practiced representing this information using tables.

In Year 9, Ethan focused on solving linear equations and understanding isotopes and half-life in science, including some worksheet activities.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Olivia reviewed simple interest calculations alongside forming and solving linear equations, with extra attention given to real-world worded questions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student was encouraged to write down thoughts when tackling algebra, but often relied on mental calculations—leading to missed steps in rearranging equations and errors like "misreading values and question."

In a Year 7 lesson, incomplete notes on angles meant confusion persisted between co-interior and alternate angle types.

One senior student practiced only familiar times tables during revision; as noted, this avoided weaker areas and limited growth in harder multiplication tasks.

In Year 8, reluctance to show working ("does not want to/ does not understand the step by step approach") slowed progress solving fractions.

Recent Achievements

One Alexander Heights tutor noticed a Year 9 student who used to get stuck on equations now working out both x and y values independently and even identifying whether the gradient was negative or positive—a real leap from last term's hesitation.

In a recent high school session, another student who rarely spoke up began talking through her maths thinking aloud and showed more interest in tackling new problems, rather than waiting for prompts.

Meanwhile, a primary-aged learner completed all her school holiday homework on probability without reminders and could clearly explain her answers when asked.

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 Ballajura Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Alinjarra Primary School.
