The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to believe in them, have high expectations and help them develop their own self-belief, motivation and problem-solving skills. A good tutor will approach each student as an individual with unique strengths, interests and learning needs and will take the time to listen to them. A good tutor…

Firstly it is important to make them understand the concepts, before giving them exercises. Unless & until they haven't properly learn the basics you shouldn't teach them advance. Firstly make them clear their basics and thereafter move forward. It is very important to have patience & be calm while dealing with kids and I am blessed with that…

The tutor should be able to listen effectively and understand the student's perspective.

Give them the resources to be their best student. Rather than just giving them the answer outright, set up a pathway for them to solve their problem themselves. I'm a very patient person, I think I've learned from past 'bad' tutors that patience is key to the student enjoying the session. I also consider myself to be creative with solutions if the…

I believe a tutor's role is to guide, facilitate and provide feedback on the student's own work. It is essential that the student independently develops the skills necessary to become competent. A tutor's role in this process is to encourage the student to explore their own knowledge, and provide tips to consolidate their understanding, and make…

Christopher has been absolutely amazing! My daughter thinks he is great, so that makes sitting down to do Math for an hour an easy sell. His gentle demeanour and softly spoken voice is just what my daughter needs. He is a delight.

Inside JolimontTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Jimmy focused on building confidence while tackling activities to assess maths skills and identify any learning gaps, including revision of factors and subtraction with zeros.

For Year 9, Ava worked through trigonometry basics using practice questions and also reviewed essay structure and language features in poetry analysis.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Lily prepared for an upcoming maths test by learning to draw and analyse piecewise functions as well as reviewing simultaneous equations and pinpointing areas for exam improvement.

Recent Challenges

Repeatedly did not complete homework, and when tired, needed concepts explained multiple times; "needs to learn how to take proper notes" was a key observation for this Year 8 student.

In Year 11 Chemistry, reliance on looking up formulas slowed progress—there's a pattern of needing more independent recall when faced with new types of questions.

For a Year 5 learner, missed homework meant less time spent on consolidating fraction operations, leaving gaps in later lessons.

In English (Year 10), anxiety about writing ideas clearly led to hesitation putting thoughts onto paper and weaker quote analysis during essays.

Recent Achievements

One Jolimont tutor saw a Year 11 student finally crack trigonometry questions that had stumped her for weeks—she confidently used the "write the rule, substitute and solve" method without prompting.

In a separate high school English session, another student who used to rush through analysis now took time to select quotes thoughtfully and wrote a strong opening for her speech using language devices more effectively.

Meanwhile, in Year 5 maths, Jimmy—who'd previously struggled with borrowing when subtracting from zero—was able to apply the strategy smoothly and completed several problems correctly on his own.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Miranda is a wonderful, professional and patient tutor. The first day Marcus met her he opened up to her and feels really comfortable. He is so happy and enjoys tutoring.I think Miranda is a great fit for Marcus .

Tom was absolutely amazing. He was able to create a great connection with Grace immediately. It was the first time I've seen her smile while doing math! He really provided some achievable challenges and she is actually excited for her next session.

Belle has benefited immensely from Amir's tuition and she has regained her confidence in both English and 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 Subiaco Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Jolimont Primary School.
