English Tutor Nedlands, WA
The most important thing is ultimately the students grades. However, if the student is willing to consider the larger implications of their work and their role in it, I would consider that as of equal importance. Students must recognise themselves in their work if they are to fully engage. I'm understanding and take the time to understand students…

Making a student feel comfortable and confident about the subject they need help in is the most important thing a tutor can do for a student. Therefore, the student is likely to excel in that subject because of the positive impact the tutor has left on the student. I'm organised, which means I'll have a plan for each tutoring session based on the…

Every individual is different, and knowing the attitude of the student towards work, their current abilities and expectations will be important. Giving too high expectations is wrong, and…

Encouragement is the most important, but it must be coupled with good teaching. My strength would be the ability to convey the information in a form that younger students would be most likely to comprehend. Secondly I believe I have a strong grounding in English, which I think is very important because one must know something very well to teach…

In summary, I think it is very relevant to create a safe space for students to learn. I have a lot of paciente…

If you're excited to learn, you will be willing to do the work and therefore be more successful, which further motivates a person.

Good grades would be the obvious answer. However, if I can spark an interest in the subject for the student the grades will logically follow. A strength would definitely be communication, I find that I can easily get my point across eloquently. I also take pride in my etiquette and friendliness. A weakness that I can see being an issue is lesson…

Having empathy to relate with students as well as discipline.

A tutor should be able to teach a student how to learn. They shouldn't just coach students on what they are studying but also how they are studying - whether their mode of study is effective and efficient enough. So that in the end, the student is able to tackle any subject or obstacle they run into without a tutor. Being friendly and…

Inside NedlandsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Sofia worked on identifying and using nouns, adverbs, verbs, and adjectives in English, alongside practicing multiplication tables for 4, 6, 7, 8, and 12.

In Year 8, Chloe focused on understanding isomorphic graphs and adjacency matrices in preparation for an upcoming test.

For Year 10, Daniel tackled Pythagoras' Theorem by finding hypotenuse lengths as well as working through problems requiring calculation of unknown side lengths given the hypotenuse.

Recent Challenges

In recent lessons, a Year 9 student did not complete assigned homework and sometimes brought only answers rather than full working, which made it hard to pinpoint where understanding was lost.

A tutor noted, "He relied on mental maths for division instead of writing steps," leading to repeated errors in basic calculations.

In Year 11 Maths Methods, messy written work during standard deviation questions meant time was wasted hunting for calculation slips instead of focusing on new concepts.

Another senior student skipped practicing harder problems and depended heavily on calculators before attempting questions by hand, especially under exam pressure.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Nedlands noticed that a Year 10 student who used to get stuck on worded trigonometry questions is now breaking down each part independently and double-checking his steps, which wasn't happening a few weeks ago.

Another recent high school session saw Chloe challenge herself by working through matrices unaided for the first time, showing she's comfortable relying on her own skills.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who previously hesitated to ask for help with tricky multiplication now openly checks his thinking out loud and requests clarification whenever he's unsure.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We've only had 2 sessions so far but Deanna is already going really well. The girls are starting to get some benefit.

Tutoring is going well. Sienna has only seen Thomas twice but so far so good! Very happy with Thomas and so is Sienna!

Nishtha is fantastic, she is very patient and has a deep calming effect on Cole which has been excellent for his confidence.

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