Forrestfield's tutors include a former Deputy Chief Program Officer and long-time school teacher with a Master of Education, an Olympiad prize-winner and high-ATAR graduates, seasoned K–12 maths and science tutors, peer mentors, and Curtin postgraduates in engineering, pharmacy, and IT—many with national academic awards or years of experience supporting student learning.
Jackie was so very helpful our daughter really liked her because she was very approachable, took baby steps and was very patient. I liked how she was very prepared for each tutorial.Stephannie
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.
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.
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.
