English Tutor Kallaroo, WA
Let the students understand where they have gone wrong and, instead of telling them the answer right away, letting the student work it out for themselves with some guidance from the tutor if necessary. This way, the student can start to learn how to notice their own mistakes and will be able to further develop their writing style. One comment I…

I consider the most important things that the tutor can do is to pass the passion and interest in the subject to student, so that even I don't teach them anymore, they can still find the motivation to learn and explore new things related to that subject. In addition, the tutor should have the ability to communicate in a easy to understand way and…

This means adapting to the individual's learning style, learning their strengths and weaknesses and tailoring the teaching style to cater for each, and keeping track of their progress. Instilling confidence in the student…

A tutor has to want the student to succeed in what they're learning. It's important to know specifically where the student is struggling in order to help them. It would be remiss not to mention that there is a positive impact on the students' performance in school as well. If I explain something and the student doesn't understand, I'll find…

The most crucial thing an english tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, is to foster an atmosphere in which they feel free to ask for assistance without the fear of judgement. Additionally, I think that assigning extra work—despite the kids' resentment—can be beneficial because it will empower them to solve the problems on their own and…

Students spend a major part of a day in school. Many children are unable to get the most of it due to time-constraints and lack of individual attention in a class. However, there are a few students who maintain attention and focus in a classroom environment. Reason is they are more prepared than the rest. If a child follows what is happening in…

Inside KallarooTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Isla focused on converting between fractions and decimals as well as adding fractions, using visual aids to clarify each step.

In Year 8, Ethan worked through integer operations with negative numbers and practised order of operations, also touching on mixed and reciprocal fractions.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Sophie reviewed consumer arithmetic by revisiting investment problems and interest calculations, then applied her understanding to currency exchange scenarios.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student struggled to keep organised notes before a test, making revision less effective—"needs to refine his notes for tests."

In Year 12, one learner found it difficult to manage time and plan for assessments, which left them feeling unprepared.

For a Year 8 student, jumping straight into GATE-style questions without breaking them down led to confusion and incomplete answers.

Meanwhile, in Year 6 maths, avoiding writing out working steps meant mistakes weren't easily spotted or corrected.

These habits often resulted in wasted effort or missed learning opportunities at crucial moments.

Recent Achievements

One Kallaroo tutoring session saw a Year 11 student finally tackle consumer arithmetic questions she'd previously avoided, showing new independence by setting up multi-step problems without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student who used to guess at algebraic fractions now confidently explains her reasoning aloud and consistently checks her own work for errors.

In primary, one Year 4 student made a noticeable shift—after struggling with division remainders in homework, he asked the tutor to review it together and then solved long division questions on his own, finishing all ten problems without needing help.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We met Aprinder, and he is a delightful young man, and he gets on well with our daughter Rebecca. She likes how he has so many different ways to show her how to solve a problem! I do understand that it will take some time until we see results, but I have a good feeling that she will excel down the track! Thank you for your prompt service.

We have been extremely happy with Mihika. Luca has always been a good Maths student but we felt that he needed a little push on year 7 to get him into good habits & not get behind. We feel that with the help of Mihika he had been able to achieve this. We will make sure to recommend your service to anyone looking for tutoring services Thank you

This all seems to be going really well. We are very happy with James and his reliability, knowledge of the area and approach to tutoring.

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