Psychology Tutor Willetton, WA
I think the most important things a tutor can do are to make the student feel understood, build their confidence, and explain concepts in a way that truly makes sense to them. As someone who is still a student myself, I know how overwhelming things can get, so I try to create a comfortable space where they are not afraid to ask questions or make…

Psychology Tutor Crawley, WA
Being patient with a student has to be the most important. Learning isn’t the same for everyone and some areas of learning are harder for some people. Remaining patient and staying kind while a child is learning is extremely important. I am a patient person, who can think creatively and how to teach subjects in different ways to suit different…

Psychology Tutor Wilson, WA
In my opinion, the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to break a concept down to its simplest form. In my school days, I often found this to be the easiest way to learn. If your basic foundation of any concept is strong, it gets much easier to build on that and learn more complex information pertaining to it. Moreover, being…

Psychology Tutor Victoria Park, WA
Impart upon a student not knowledge per se, but rather a desire to expand their own knowledge through self-directed learning. Learning and education should be a lifelong process, not one that ends when an individual completes their primary vocational education. Learning makes us grow and develop and look at things in different ways, and the desire…

Help with specific questions they have, not just go over every syllabus point each lesson, thus tailoring the lesson to their pace. Allow them to build confidence and actually enjoy the subject they are doing. Provide tips and tricks for their other subjects as well, especially in year 11 and year 12! Create a good relationship with the students…

I think that the most important thing a tutor can do is build the student's confidence in themselves and their own abilities so that the student is able to realise that with a little guidance and support they can achieve anything they want.

Psychology Tutor Shelley, WA
A tutor must be very patient, approachable, and accepting, as students should feel safe and comfortable enough to ask any question without facing any judgment. A warm and friendly environment must be established. This is the most effective way for a student to learn, and be open to learning. A tutor must also be able to provide examples of the…

It is a necessity for a tutor to establish rapport with their students. As a proponent of a theory in rapport for learners, it is important that the student and teacher must sense each other, sync in their teaching and learning process and experience an affirming positive experience while educating. I am very creative in teaching my students. I…

I think the most important is to follow the students lead. They will often know their weaknesses and from spending time working with them, you can take note of possible areas of improvement. However, at the end of the day you are there to help the student so by listening and communicating effectively both parties will be satisfied. The ability to…

Listen and teach. I think it is so important for students to be listened to and helped accordingly. They must be given the space to work through problems they are facing themselves so that they can believe in their own abilities and increase their own self-efficacy. It is vital that the student can not only regurgitate an answer or process but…

Local Reviews

Xinchi has just been over again this evening and I would like to say what a lovely young man he is. He is very thorough, knows what he is teaching, and has a lovely manner. He has already built a nice rapport with Cameron. We are keen to see Cameron's progress under Xinchi's guidance.

Inside ArdrossTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Jack worked on calculating area, length, and perimeter in measurement tasks and practiced geometric shapes and angles using diagrams.

In Year 8, Ava tackled linear equations and began exploring parabolas, followed by an investigation into geometric relationships in curves.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student focused on applying indices rules through BIMDAS operations and completed basic data analysis for an assignment using real-life scenarios.

Recent Challenges

Homework discipline was a challenge for one Year 9 student, as noted: "didn't do homework," which meant test preparation was incomplete—impacting recall of mean, median, and range.

In Year 7, confusion about decimal conversion led to hesitation during multi-step problems; "still unsure about decimals as well as making a few silly mistakes."

For a Year 11 learner, time management issues appeared in assignment work—longer tasks were left unfinished.

Organization and equation memory also slipped in senior years: one note recorded "needs work on remembering equations," especially under test pressure, leaving key steps missing from final answers.

Recent Achievements

One Ardross tutor noticed a big shift with Jack in Year 9—after weeks of hesitating on multi-step worded problems, he now breaks them down and solves them independently, catching his own mistakes as he works.

In Year 11 maths, Kara had struggled to remember the indice laws but can now explain and apply them correctly across different problems without prompting.

Meanwhile, a younger student recently started choosing multiplication games over other activities, asking for harder times tables after initially avoiding them altogether. Last week she finished all her multiplication card challenges without needing hints.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Tilly has been doing very well at school with her maths - she received an A on her report. She says she is far more confident. Thank you so much for providing us with an excellent tutor in Christy - it would be my pleasure to provide a reference any time. It has made a significant difference to our daughter's confidence.

We are very pleased with the progress of the tutorials with Aprinder. Dean is engaging really well with him and already seems more confident.  We hope his apparent progress will be reflected in both a more positive attitude toward maths that is enduring and also in his maths results at school.

Nathan is great and Katelyn is really happy. At first she wasn't very keen on having a tutor but she is not complaining at all anymore.  We are off to a great start and I feel positive.

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 Civic Square Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Mount Pleasant Primary School.
