I am a patient and dedicated individual and I find that this…

Always tell them not to be scared to ask. I often realize students are uncomfortbale to ask when they need help. It is important to ask for help and not to be embarassed about it because developing and making it better is good rather than silent. In studying English specifically, it is good to ask them to find something relate to the language…

Not only is it important for the tutor help raise the academic abilities for a student, but also their confidence, and enjoyment for the subject. This to me, is the ultimate end goal in tutoring, and without them, they will not be motivated to study their subjects. Furthermore, a tutor should teach the student the fundamentals of time management…

Tutors need to be patient, not every student is equally as smart, or equally as attentive. You have to find a balance. A great example I think would be is planting a seed.

I suppose that the most important things a tutor can do for their student would be primarily to be supportive of their work, and to push and encourage them to perform at a level higher than their current in the subject, but not in a manner that is harsh and liable to discourage them from pursuing the subject with any manner of vehemence.

Local Reviews

Maddie is enjoying her sessions with Courtney and we're happy with her tutoring at this stage. With only two sessions, it's still very early to see any progress, but I was well impressed with Courtney's availability to help Maddie, including sending extra resources via email. Much appreciated. So far, all is well.

Inside FerndaleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Ava focused on mean, median, mode and range in statistics and interpreted Venn diagrams to compare data sets.

Year 9 student Jacob worked through congruency and similarity proofs for triangles as well as reviewing fraction operations.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ella practiced solving questions involving simple interest and refreshed her understanding of decimal operations using targeted textbook exercises.

Recent Challenges

In Year 4, one student repeatedly forgot to complete homework and became frustrated when facing subtraction regrouping—this led to a breakdown during the session.

A Year 6 learner showed over-reliance on calculators for even basic calculations: "He reached for the calculator straight away in class, skipping mental checks."

In Year 11 Mathematics Specialist, review of past assessment tasks was missed, making it harder to pinpoint recurring errors before exams.

For a senior Chemistry student, skipped revision on ionic equations resulted in confusion with unfamiliar reaction types. Confidence dropped noticeably after setbacks; work was sometimes abandoned mid-task.

Recent Achievements

A Ferndale tutor noticed a big shift in one Year 10 student who used to freeze when facing tricky equations—this week, she tackled complex algebraic problems with far less hesitation and even chose the right method herself.

Another high schooler, previously unsure about chemistry concepts, managed to answer acid-base questions accurately without prompts and completed a full set of practice test problems independently.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who was reluctant to attempt worded time problems last month has started solving them confidently, finishing her latest set without skipping any questions.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Henry was very happy with Hayden's style of tutoring. He found him clear and concise in the way he explained methods, and was teaching him the same way his teacher is at school. Whilst I was listening in the background I could hear that Hayden was very encouraging towards Henry which I'm sure gave him some confidence to tackle the next equation. I know that Hayden will leave more and more homework going forward, he was keen to get to know Henry as a person, identify his strengths and weaknesses first.

Chris is actually very happy with Shehara. He seems motivated. He's had two sessions with her and seems to like it so all good here.

Ally's tutoring is going well and Gopi is very nice. Ally's report was very positive and that makes me happy. I have spoken to Gopi about Ally's progress and informed her that we would like to extend Alexandra in Maths.

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 Riverton Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Fountain College - Lynwood Campus.
