English Tutor Glen Forrest, WA
The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to allow them to build up their own confidence in the subject that they are struggling in, as well as allowing them not to see the subject as a chore or something to avoid, but as an enjoyable and fun task that would be highly useful for the future! My strengths are that I would…

English Tutor Maida Vale, WA
Often when people don't understand something, it's because they aren't thinking about it correctly. Different subjects require different ways of thinking. Science is very cause and effect, focused on how and why. So if you're not used to thinking in very a step by step way (this causes that and that causes this), it can be hard to understand. So I…

Inside Hacketts GullyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Jacob practised finding mean, median, and range for sets of numbers and used diagrams to visualise stem-and-leaf plots.

In Year 7, Mia focused on simplifying algebraic expressions by combining like terms and applying the distributive property to expand brackets.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Alex worked through converting fractions to decimals and percentages as well as calculating long division with multi-digit numbers.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student struggled to complete assigned probability homework and was easily distracted by her laptop, with a tutor noting, "she wasn't cooperative and didn't want to involve herself in the lesson, even though she has a test the next day."

In Year 6 English, another student avoided writing answers herself, preferring the tutor to do it, which limited her preparation for upcoming essays.

A Year 4 learner often left homework unfinished and lost focus during tasks like story planning. Moments like these led to missed practice opportunities and reduced readiness for assessments.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Hacketts Gully noticed Ava has begun tackling her maths homework independently and completed every set task this week without prompting—a big shift from last term, when she'd hesitate or leave questions blank.

In Year 10 science, Luana showed real growth by openly explaining where she got stuck on probability formulas, rather than staying silent as she did before; after working through examples together, she could confidently apply the method to new problems.

Meanwhile, Addison (Year 4) now volunteers answers for fractions and can convert improper fractions into mixed numbers on her own—last month she would only attempt these with step-by-step guidance.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Ryan has been great. Jordon is already understanding more of the content which is fantastic. His words were "Ryan explains things much better than my teacher, so I understand it better."

All is going well with David. He is always on time and explaining things well with Ella. They are working through her math book and things are moving forward which is great. She will continue with a tutor once she starts school in Malaysia.

Thank you for your email. Ben and David are working well together and it appears that the working relationship is positive. Interestingly, Ben has instantly been able to move to working with David as both David and Ben have in common the same secondary school that Ben is currently going to. So while David attended the school some years prior to Ben, and much has change, they were still able to compare experiences about the school which helped start them working constructively. We are very satisfied with continuing with David.

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 Kalamunda Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Carmel Adventist College Primary School.
