Keeping them interested in the subject, making them believe that it's not just about marks, but understanding. Making them to fall in love with the subject. Doing that subject should make them feel happy, not anxious. I focus more on logic and intuition, rather than memorizing. Being someone who used to fail regularly before becoming one of the…

I think the most important things for a tutor is to make sure the student knows how there education will be valuable for adulthood. Also for tutors to be able to adapt for there students needs and learning styles, and also make sure the lessons are a mixture of tutors teaching and students asking and answering questions. I think I am reliable,…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is to teach a student how to pursue their own studies, that is, if I can teach a student how to study without the need for a tutor, that's worth more than tutoring them the whole year and it will serve them well for the rest of their life. An excellent tutor will keep their students motivated and…

This means patiently helping the students understand…

According to my experience, student need to get overall objective and subjective knowledge to compare ideal and non-ideal example of real world experience through tutor.

For me, as a student, what I sought from my tutor was discovering how I learn best, rather than adhering to a one-size-fits-all approach. I also valued having someone with whom I could freely share my thoughts without fear of judgment, essentially a friend.

Tutors have two roles, One is to actively support the student who might be struggling to cope up with their peers and/or looking to improve their performance. The second is to make the student learn in a different environment from their school. Schools have multiple children and every child has some issue they are facing. As a tutor sitting 1-1…

Inside LeedervilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Thomas focused on persuasive writing structure and practiced reading speeches aloud for pronunciation, alongside techniques to manage nervous feelings before presentations.

Year 8 student Grace tackled scatter plots and reinforced algebraic foundations using visual strategies, then completed targeted questions on algebra terms and the BIMDAS order of operations.

For Year 10, Olivia worked through bivariate data by constructing two-way tables and scatter plots, calculating missing values, and distinguishing between explanatory and response variables within real-world contexts.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student was observed repeatedly erasing answers during maths problem-solving, which caused an inability to build progress in investigation for the correct answer. This habit disrupted the learning flow and left gaps in working out.

In Year 10, one student resisted trying new revision techniques suggested by their tutor, sticking only to familiar methods—this limited exposure to alternative approaches that could fill knowledge gaps before exams.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner displayed low confidence when reading aloud, with nervous fidgeting affecting public speaking tasks; their focus drifted during spelling practice, making it harder to engage fully with feedback and improve fluency.

Recent Achievements

One Leederville tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 10 student who used to freeze up on trigonometry questions—now, after extra practice, she confidently works through exam problems and allocates her own revision time.

In a recent high school maths session, Lewis, who previously struggled with polynomial long division, was able to complete the process accurately and even identified the correct initial factor for a cubic equation without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who would often hesitate before asking for help now raises their hand straight away whenever they're unsure about solving two-way tables.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Sam's been great for my Sam and after over a year of other tutoring which Sam hated, I can't recall one time when Sam has not wanted to do his tutoring with Sam. As a result Sam's far more engaged with Maths and has moved up a group at school for next year! Thank you for Sam's persistence and flexibility on making learning fun and exciting for my Sam!

Ben is very diligent and commited. He tutored both my daughter's who showed marked improvement. He prepared for sessions and always kept us informed of the girls progress. He is a thoughtful and considerate guy and the girls responded well to his demeanour. I would highly recommend Ben to anyone that wants a tutor to elevate their child's academic performance.

Rueben has been a great fit for Gabrielle. He is an excellent tutor and goes through the steps for the maths problems. Gabrielle feels he explains things so she can understand. Rueben is very easy to talk to and he communicates with us. He is also up with the curriculum.

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 City of Vincent Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like School Of Isolated and Distance Education.
