Software Dev Tutor Canning Vale, WA
I believe it would be to clearly identify where the student is lacking and how best to tackle that specific weakness. Then from there take it one step at a time till the student is comfortable enough to increase the pace. The key is to subtly increase the pace such that they wont notice or get overwhelmed. Given my education and occupation, I have…

Software Dev Tutor Willetton, WA
The most important part of tutoring is passion for sharing knowledge. This may mean going for unpaid overtime, figuring out different teaching methods in your own time, and being happy by simply making a difference in someone's life. I understand what it feels like to struggle in a subject, so I believe I can use that understanding to provide high…

Inside CockburnTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Chloe worked on finding area and perimeter of squares and rectangles, using diagrams to help visualise measurement.

In Year 9, Aiden explored narrative analysis in English by breaking down literary devices like metaphor and allusion, as well as practising persuasive writing techniques such as emotive language and anecdote in preparation for assessments.

For Year 10 maths, Lucas revised solving linear inequalities and graphing their solutions, alongside work on simultaneous equations with substitution and elimination methods.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 English, one student did not finish their novel before the deadline and struggled to recall key details when questioned; "he needs to reread the ending until he can more effectively comprehend it."

In Year 11 Legal Studies, another was reluctant to attempt questions with unfamiliar wording unless prompted, avoiding independent problem-solving.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student repeatedly left homework incomplete due to confusion and did not attempt tasks without immediate support. This led to missed opportunities for feedback and practice—questions went unanswered, and confidence faltered when faced with new or challenging material.

Recent Achievements

One Cockburn tutor recently noticed a big turnaround for Caitlin in maths: after re-trying her previous assessment, she answered every question correctly, showing real persistence where she'd struggled before.

In Year 10, Nikita flagged tricky finance problems herself during the session instead of waiting passively—she then worked through how payment plans add extra costs and could explain her reasoning back to the tutor.

Meanwhile, Aiden (Year 9) started building a steady reading habit by completing all set chapters for English ahead of time and took initiative to research evidence for his persuasive essay without prompting.

Local Spots for Tutoring
