As a tutor the most important behaviour is to remain open and encouraging. This allows them to be honest and seek help when they need it rather than feeling embarrassed that they are struggling to understand a concept. I believe I am very competent at listening and using deductive reasoning to best approach a situation and work towards finding a…

Resetting tutor's mind and knowledge to the student's level is the first thing a tutor should do. I strongly believe the story about helping someone how to fish would give him/her a life, sympolises a teacher's greatness. I am very patient and friendly. I normally flush out my mind when I start teaching to see the chapter through the student's…

A tutor can spend time with students so that they can understand what the problem is. Moreover, a tutor is a person with whom every student feels safe, and they share everything, so the tutor must be calm and teach everything in a fun way. My strengths as a tutor are that I am a well-organized individual, and I develop my own ways of teaching for…

The most important thing for a tutor is that they further the learning and understanding of their student.

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is to be very clear and not convoluted when explaining topics, equations, etc. to students, as it can be very easy to get intimated as a student and end up confused. I believe it is also important not to assume any knowledge straight away from students but to intentionally ask what it is that they…

Personally, I believe in three things a good tutor can do for a student. First, Can Encourage every child understanding their speciality and treating them differently. The prevailing inherited difference in them is a mean to stimulus the school going students and that can be done by the tutor. Second, Can Motivate on every walk to the student…

I think that this does vary student to student (haha sorry bit of an off question-answer!) But largely and for those that are shy it's being approachable and this means anything the student doesn't understand, the student should be eager to ask you if you are approachable. And for those who aren't so shy and often at a higher level too, my answer…

A tutor should also have empathy and be a good listener for the student. Moreover, the tutor should also be…

According to my work experience, what a tutor can do for students is to stimulate their interest in a subject, and when they are confused about certain topics, provide them with ideas and help them explore to find the final answer, rather than tell them the theoretical answer directly. This will give students a sense of accomplishment about their…

Inside LathlainTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Aarav worked on converting percentages to fractions and explored chance concepts, along with building confidence in algebraic expressions and basic factorisation.

In Year 9, Ava practised solving simultaneous equations using both substitution and elimination methods, and drew linear graphs to interpret parallel lines.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ethan reviewed trigonometry by calculating unknown angles in triangles and revisited Pythagoras' theorem through guided practice questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Chemistry, difficulty identifying unknowns meant the student relied heavily on memorizing plans rather than analyzing question prompts.

A Year 8 Maths student submitted incomplete notes for cycles, which led to confusion when matching equations with graphs; as one tutor noted, "her notes were slightly incorrect and incomplete."

During a Year 7 session on rearranging equations, not revising factorisation steps made it hard to follow the process for finding x.

In an online primary class, distractions from surroundings repeatedly pulled focus away from tasks—making pen-on-paper work inconsistent and written explanations sparse. The result: moments of discouragement when stuck or confused.

Recent Achievements

One Lathlain tutor recently noticed a big shift in a Year 11 Chemistry student who used to struggle with setting out solutions—she now confidently plans her approach for identifying unknowns and works through examples with minimal help.

A high school maths student who previously hesitated during trigonometry lessons was able to complete questions independently, even choosing the correct rule without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who once waited for guidance has started voicing her answers aloud while working on spelling tasks, showing real initiative by self-correcting as she goes.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Stuart and Ben seem to have hit it off straight away and my son was very happy with his first lesson. It is still early days to really make a comment but Stuart seems like a very smart, helpful, pleasant young man and they both seem to share an interest in soccer.

Due to Nakita's tutor doing an amazing job last year, Nakita has not needed his skills for the beginning of this year, comprehending and understanding the maths content at school extremely well.

We are very happy with the tutoring services we are receiving through your company and my daughters tutor, Alfred. Alfred has been very flexible in fitting in with Jayda's schedule and learning needs and we foresee a lengthy tutoring relationship.

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 Victoria Park Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Lathlain Primary School.
