Chemistry Tutor Alkimos, WA
Teaching a student on how to learn on their own in such a way that they will not need a chemistry tutor in their future academic pursuits. The confidence that the students can learn on their own may act as a kick-starter to pursue their own dreams, and if the students were to succeed achieving their dream, I will be glad that I played a small part…

Every student is different and every student has different ways of understanding concepts. Some might learn them easily via a practical approach while others focus on the theory first. Understanding the weak points of a student and focusing on the strength of a student is very important for a chemistry tutor to know. One of my strengths is a…

A tutor can bring in enjoyment into students even when they study. Most of the students don't enjoy study time the main reason being they don't understand certain concepts and find it hard. But a chemistry tutor can explain that to students in a way they understand bring in interest thereby the enjoyment factor into it. I have great patience, good…

Listening to students in regards to what their weakest areas are and implementing any methods they may want to use to address the issue (e.g. practice questions). 3.

I think the most important thing a chemistry tutor can do for a student is to believe in them and show them that what they think is impossible is not and that it can be achieved with some hard work and a nudge in the right direction I think my strengths include being able to identify the student's weak areas and focusing on them to help them…

The most important things a chemistry tutor can do are build the student’s confidence, make learning easier to understand, and support them in reaching their goals.

An important thing that a tutor can do for a student is to give a space for them to have a smooth communication with the tutor so that they will be free to clear all their doubts which in turn smoothens the learning. Apart from that instead of just focusing on subject learning a tutor can also teach them certain moral values which will make…

Understand the student's goals. Put themselves in the student's position and understand their abilities, then tailor the methods/techniques accordingly. Hopefully encourage an interest in the subject so that they want to learn more. I am highly articulate when explaining my thought processes. I like to break things down into smaller, more easily…

Inside AlkimosTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Emily practised telling the time on both analogue and digital clock faces and worked through division word problems to build her problem-solving skills.

In Year 7, Liam focused on combining like terms in algebra and used number lines to understand operating with fractions.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Ava tackled linear equations alongside ratios, using practice quizzes and step-by-step examples to reinforce each method.

Recent Challenges

In Year 7 mathematics, one student preferred to solve problems mentally rather than writing steps out, which made it harder to spot errors—"sometimes Aidan does all his working in his head."

In a Year 10 algebra lesson, forgetting to include negative signs led to repeated corrections before reaching the right answer.

Across several primary sessions, missed or misplaced homework slowed progress; for example, "Izzy had lost her whiteboard homework."

During a Year 9 English task, hesitation over editing choices resulted in unnecessary changes and reduced clarity.

Skipping opening goal-setting meant less focus during some lessons, leading to restlessness and slower work.

Recent Achievements

One Alkimos tutor noted Seth's shift to confidently speaking up and asking questions when unsure—he now leaves mistakes visible in his work so he can track growth over time.

Caitlin, a high school student, recently tackled algebra homework she'd found confusing the week before; this session, she explained her working independently and combined like terms with little prompting.

In another win for older students, Dina has begun editing her own writing drafts after struggling to make revisions in past sessions; last lesson, she added her own ending to a story and corrected errors without help.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

After the last session Mia said she was happy with Sam and didn't want to change to anyone else. Sam is very bright and Mia will never be an advanced Maths student but they seem to have worked out how to communicate and that just builds her confidence so she doesn't see a difficult question and get overwhelmed. Sam is also very punctual and communicates well with us as well. Even the dog likes him now.

Esme has connected with her tutor and is progressing well. We are pleased with the progress so far.

Tutoring seems to be going well. I think both Matthew and Abbey are starting to settle into a routine. Abbey has started to apply some of the methods Matthew has shown her to school work. She has come home from school a couple of times now, saying she was asked a question during maths time and got it right. Which, of course, she was very happy about! Within the next few weeks, I will receive Abbey's report for semester 1. I will show Matt, so he has even more understanding of her needs. I'm looking forward to seeing what they achieve in the coming months.

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 Clarkson Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St James' Anglican School.
