Psychology Tutor
One of the most important things a tutor can do is motivate the student and help build their love for the subject. Helping the student let go of their fear of the subject can not only help them in the present but also aid them in their future endeavours. I personally am aware of the feeling of fearing a subject but also conquering this fear by…

Inside Mount StuartTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Isaac worked through quadratic equations in Maths—tackling harder problem types—and in Chemistry focused on writing ionic compounds and naming covalent compounds.

For Year 9, Sophia revised index laws, simplifying expressions under the square root, and practiced converting decimals to fractions using homework examples.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Eve solved questions involving unit conversions and simple ratios, as well as finding missing angles in triangles and quadrilaterals.

Recent Challenges

Several process habits limited progress across year levels.

In Year 9, incomplete homework repeatedly interrupted skill-building; as one tutor noted, "she could not finish her assigned homework again," leaving gaps in coordinate graphing.

A Year 10 student struggled to explain mathematical reasoning—"needs improvement when it comes to explaining why the answer is what it is"—which made advanced trigonometry comparisons harder to grasp.

Organization issues also emerged in senior years: a Year 12 student arrived unprepared, without their online textbook ready, slowing down chemistry problem-solving.

In English (Year 11), lack of cohesive sentence structure led to confusion during essay drafting and left ideas underdeveloped.

Recent Achievements

A Mount Stuart tutoring session saw one Year 10 student, Jacinta, bring in a draft essay that had already incorporated feedback from both her schoolteacher and the tutor—something she'd hesitated to do independently before.

Meanwhile, Eve (Year 11) not only pinpointed where she lost marks on a recent maths test after reviewing textbook exercises with her tutor but also began tackling complex binomial theorem expansions without needing step-by-step guidance.

In primary, Sophia moved from struggling with division to completing several problems entirely on her own and immediately asked for extra questions when finished.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Our tutor, Amy, came to our place yesterday for my son's first session.  Thought I'd give you a bit of feedback.........she was lovely, had been keeping in touch beforehand, and Alex seemed to show signs of much improved motivation !! She clearly is experienced in tutoring students and at this very early stage I think we're off to a great start.

I have some results to report. Wari has sat three tests in the last week or so, the results are: Maths - 95.5%; Chemistry - 100%; Economics - 77% (no coaching in this subject). We are very happy with these results, especially the chemistry one as she has had the most trouble with that subject. Last week, before the Friday chemistry test they did two hours on chemistry, she found the lessons very hard, but the following test very straight forward. In the maths test, she actually did all the calculations correctly but lost marks for rounding an answer incorrectly and rounding a couple of other answers when she shouldn't have! We are very happy with Alexander's teaching, although we are not sitting in the room, he sounds very clear and concise. Another very important thing to consider  is that she is very happy with her results and is gaining more self confidence, and, I think, is generally more relaxed and happy with life.

More importantly, I want to let you know that Hannah, Peter and I are very happy with Phal - she's super smart, friendly and a great communicator.  She's lifted Hannah's confidence within a few short weeks and, circumstances permitting, we look forward to a long and productive tutoring association with her.

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 Citylibraries Aitkenvale—or at your child's school (with permission), like Enkindle Village School.
