English Tutor Mount Pleasant, WA
Sometimes children do not study subjects because the method in which they receive it is not interesting enough. My goal as an english tutor is to make it interesting for the student and so that he develops a liking for the subject. This in due course can help a student identify his true potential. I have a good command over the subjects and can…

I believe that tutors must be good analyzers if they want to succeed. I mean that they have to examine the way students study and practice and even think. After a good observation, they can provide students with the tools with which students can improve their weaknesses. This can be different form one student to another one. Besides, Encouraging…

I think to be able to cater to each sutdent individually is the most important thing an english tutor can do. Each student learns and processes information differently. By understanding this the tutor can adapt their teaching style to suit that of the student. I think my experience in my job and as a student now studying teaching, I have the…

A tutor's primary aim is to instill confidence in the student. Students seek tutors for a variety of reasons. Maybe the student is struggling and needs someone to explain things more clearly. A wise and patient tutor will do that, and the student will feel more confident; that they can do it! Some students come to tutoring with no real problems,…

The first thing would be to establish a plan of goals and expectations and help the student identify their role in this plan. Once an english tutor has an idea of the expectation of the parents/school/ students then only can progress take shape, and this might have many forms and variations as to how this is executed as the student grows or…

I would say the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is helping them grow as individuals, and help them find a love for learning - a strong passion for the academic studies. A tutor needs to also serve as a good role model for the students, and be a person the student can trust to help them improve their grades. I would say…

For me, the two things that aided me most when I was being tutored in highschool were practice questions given to me by tutors and when these tutors took their time to really deconstruct these concepts until I fully understood them. My biggest strength is patience. Sometimes it takes students a long time to begin to understand certain concepts and…

I believe explaining a concept in such a way that the student understands it intuitively and can thus use that understanding to solve different problems, rather than simply rote-learning a series of facts, is an incredibly important part of being an english tutor. The tutor should be adding to a student's toolkit such that they can solve a variety…

I can make the student not only competent, but also comfortable and confident in a certain topic. I understand how stressful hard subjects can be. I want to take away the feeling of fear when students enter a class they think they're not good in. Another thing is teaching a student to be an autodidact. I was fortunate enough to know this tactic…

I think that as an english tutor, we should be different from teachers at school. We should provide extra care to their needs and catering to what areas of a particular topic they are struggling with, in order for them to improve. Therefore, I think that conducting a personalized teaching plan for the students to observe and explore what methods…

I consider the most important thing an english tutor can do for their student is make their teaching environment comfortable. I believe students learn best if they are easy and able to talk and more importantly ask questions when they are unsure. Without this transparency I believe it’s very hard to teach and fully understand our students…

Everything is going really well with the tutoring
Anthea, Mount Pleasant

Inside Mount PleasantTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 Jack worked on measuring area, length, and perimeter as well as identifying geometric shapes and angles using hands-on examples.

Year 9 Ava explored linear equations and began investigating the properties of parabolas, including graphing curves.

For Year 11 Sam, lessons covered solving simultaneous equations by elimination and applying index laws to simplify algebraic expressions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 Maths, missing homework and forgotten classwork meant almost none of the previous lesson's work was retained—"made further teaching difficult," a tutor noted.

A Year 10 student preparing for an algebra test relied on notes instead of memorizing key formulas, slowing progress in rearranging equations.

In Year 11 Chemistry, not writing out working or using back-checking led to repeated errors when practicing stoichiometry and redox reactions.

Another senior maths student avoided showing steps during surds problems; this habit hid mistakes and cost marks on tests.

Confidence dropped after setbacks, especially when feedback wasn't used immediately.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Mount Pleasant noticed a big shift with one Year 10 student who used to avoid asking questions; now, she's regularly checking her understanding during lessons and even clarified oxidation numbers without prompting.

In Year 11 maths, another student finally cracked simultaneous equations after weeks of struggle—he worked through several practice problems on his own and spotted his earlier mistakes straight away.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who'd previously hesitated with fractions is now comparing them confidently and finished all her assigned worded questions independently this week.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

My daughter and I are both very happy with Thibault. She has only had one session with him but said he was good at explaining and he was able to answer her questions. He was also encouraging, punctual and very polite. We are very happy to continue with him.

Gagan is a wonderful tutor and I would be very happy with her coming back next year.

Both Natalia and Kiara are very happy with Abigail and things are starting off really great.

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 Canning Bridge Express Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Mount Pleasant Primary School.
