If a tutor makes the concept easier and practical with examples then students can easily understand. I think this quality should be in every tutor.

I think a tutor can bring out the inner talent of a student. Suppose a student who could not able to gain a good marks in exams or failing continuously, I will give that student mental support. I will give him or her motivation by telling that you can achieve anything in your life by doing hardworking. The most important thing is that a tutor can…

Ensuring that a student has confidence and self belief can be just as…

I think that it's really important to be a good listener so that you can use feedback from students to improve your teaching. Not everyone learns in the same way so it's really important to work with each student to find the learning tehniques that work best for them. It's also important to recognise that each student could prefer different…

I consider a tutor responsibility towards students is to be committed and flexible. The tutor should be with their student even if both have been going through the exam period. The tutor should never cancel on a lesson with a student for their own studies. As well, it is a must to be patient towards the student and be flexible as a tutor to learn…

As a tutor the most important behaviour is to remain open and encouraging.

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

Georgia is happy with Kelvin. She is very shy and so it is great that she feels comfortable with him.

Everything is going well with Dexter. Jordana gets on really well with her, and finds Dexter explains things very clearly, and has been a great help already with her understanding of Maths.

Jakob and Cara have a great working relationship and cover alot of content in each session. Cara's confidence and maths skills have grown considerably since commencing 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 Victoria Park Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Lathlain Primary School.
