Science Tutor Duncraig, WA
I believe that creating a true relationship and connection with the student is an incredibly important part of being a successful tutor. If the student genuinely enjoys their tutoring session they are more likely to want to continue to learn and therefore engage with the content. By building a portfolio with the student, they are more likely to…

At the fundamental level a tutor's role is to make sure that a student understands the material. Therefore, the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to go over mistakes made in previous tests/assessments and ensure the student has a good understanding of the previously covered topics and principles before moving on. Additionally,…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to have patience and to create a safe learning space for the student. I do not believe that inflicting pressure on a student is the best way for them to learn as it may create resent towards studying. I believe that I can identify others learning strengths, such as visual learning,…

- A tutor must encourage and motivate a student to continue learning and trying. - A tutor should be able to answer 80% of questions that are presented by a student. If there is something that cannot be solved during the session, the tutor has the responsibility to follow it up and research the topic that the student is having a difficulty with,…

make sure they're on the right track with their studies and even if you don't know the answer for yourself, be sure to steer them in the right direction of where they can find the information.

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…

As cliché as it sounds, I believe that the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to not give up on the student. Patience and persistence is key to finding what allows a student to succeed. Likewise, being able to adapt is very important to a tutor. Knowing how to change the way you teach a student can be very valuable for their…

I think that the most important thing a tutor can do is to adapt their teaching style to fit with the individual learning style of each student. Whether that be taking more time and working through it with them, or giving them more challenging tasks and letting them complete it on their own. Have completed 3 years of engineering at UWA, and have a…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is acknowledge that all students are different. It's crucial to recognise a student's individual needs and tailor to them. A tutor should adapt to the student's learning style rather than the student adapting to the tutor's teaching style. My biggest strength is my genuine passion and enthusiasm for…

Inside MarmionTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 Paige focused on converting between fractions, decimals, and percentages, as well as practicing multiplying with decimals using test questions for extra reinforcement.

Year 9 Benji worked through all key algebra skills for his upcoming test and spent time mastering equations of linear graphs by tackling a comprehensive study booklet.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Paige revisited challenging finance questions from a recent test and practiced applying clear steps to similar exam-style problems to boost confidence for future assessments.

Recent Challenges

Missed two consecutive homework assignments on midpoints and correlation, which limited their readiness for lesson activities ("Did not do homework set").

In Year 11, a student avoided writing out equations fully during algebra tasks, making it difficult to spot and fix calculation errors.

For one Year 10 trigonometry topic, overconfidence meant "he believes that he is OK" despite an exam result of just 33%, so gaps went unaddressed until the test.

In primary years, messy or incomplete working was noted in fraction simplification, sometimes causing confusion when revisiting problems later.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Marmion recently saw a Year 10 student who had previously been anxious about index laws, but after working through each rule, he completed all the practice questions without making his usual mistakes.

In a senior high school session, another student surprised himself by quickly adapting to new types of graphs and data; where he once hesitated with interpreting features of parabolas, he now describes them confidently and solves factorising problems more smoothly.

Meanwhile, during a primary session, one student was initially hesitant with long division but persisted and managed to complete several sums independently before the lesson ended.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Carl has enjoyed working with both his tutors this year and is well prepared for his VCE math methods exams. Having a personal tutor, even for a student like Carl who is already achieving excellent academic results, has helped relieve some of the stress of VCE and enabled him to sort out areas he wanted to work on with more depth.

Bailey is really happy with Jackie, and so are we, he enjoys their sessions and I can see he is understanding much better.  Jackie is very courteous and punctual.

Awesome feedback from Jessica about Emily's progress. Much better than previous tutoring agency.

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 Duncraig Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Marmion Primary School.
