Being a tutor requires a great responsibility. The first and foremost thing a tutor can do is to be a friend with the student and develop a rapport. We have to understand them first then only we can approach accordingly through our teaching. It's like being a therapist and getting to know them better. If we succeed then we can easily transfer and…

I think tutor should do everything for his or her students because after the parents only teacher is one person who can very closed for the student. Tutor should look after their students and if they have any bad habit then it's tutor responsibility to guide them in right direction and also inform their parents. Tutor can make hard subject into…

I think the most important thing is to encourage a student to be independent and learning how to solve their own problems. So, by not giving them the answers outright but ensuring that they are taught key methods that enable them to solve their own issue is very important especially in the long term. Having patience and attention to explain…

English 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…

Inside ForrestfieldTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Jack practised converting fractions to percentages and multiplying fractions, using real-life examples for context.

In Year 9, Sarah worked on simplifying surds and indices, as well as solving equations involving functions.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Alex focused on bivariate data—plotting data points, adding a trend line, and estimating values from the line of best fit to interpret relationships between variables.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11, a student working on normal distribution and compound interest sometimes left assignments incomplete or requires clarification from teacher in regards to the assignment before progressing.

During Year 9 algebra, messy written work—especially when factoring expressions—led to errors that took extra time to untangle.

In Year 6, homework on fraction addition was only partially completed, with some skipped questions making it hard to review progress together.

A Year 3 learner hesitated to attempt new multiplication tables unless confident of perfection first; this slowed practice and limited exposure to trickier facts.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Forrestfield noticed one Year 11 student, who previously mixed up the rules for surds and indices, now solves equations involving both without prompting and has started factoring basic algebraic expressions independently.

In a recent high school session, another student who used to skip graphing questions can now plot x and y values correctly and confidently identifies key points on the graph during practice.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who once hesitated with reading aloud is now volunteering to read passages out loud in each session and answers follow-up questions using details from the text.

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