It's important to be understanding, to listen to what a student (or parent) wants to get out of tutoring, and to focus on the student's goals. It's also important to be clear in your teaching, and to come up with creative and interesting ways to teach each student, as every student is different. I have a very enthusiastic and positive approach to…

Students spend a major part of a day in school. Many children are unable to get the most of it due to time-constraints and lack of individual attention in a class. However, there are a few students who maintain attention and focus in a classroom environment. Reason is they are more prepared than the rest. If a child follows what is happening in…

Local Reviews

Only 3 sessions in but what a difference my son who was adamant he didn't want to do it now loves it and is so much more confident in class and doing homework. His homework results were always 55 percent and below now 90 and above. One happy parent and 15 year old! He said it's heaps easier one on one and how it's explained. I'm impressed.

Inside NeerabupTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Islay revised simple probability exercises and calculating probability as decimals, and also completed a Year 9 statistics test focusing on mean, mode, median, and range.

For Year 9, Aiden worked through measurement problems involving volume and surface area of cuboids and cubes as well as problem solving with Venn diagrams in probability.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Alex focused on film techniques—exploring SWAT codes such as lighting and camera angles—and analyzed how these technical features create different moods in horror and romantic genres.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student found it difficult to maintain focus during longer revision sessions, especially when covering familiar content; "he wanted to move on before finishing the task," noted a tutor, which left key skills under-practiced.

In Year 11 English, another hesitated to start creative writing tasks without reassurance, struggling with self-confidence and idea planning—this made first drafts slow and fragmented.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student repeatedly left homework incomplete and needed reminders to practice times tables between lessons. These patterns led to missed consolidation opportunities and growing frustration when recalling information in class or assessments.

Recent Achievements

One Neerabup tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who used to struggle explaining her maths methods; now she confidently talks through each step and identifies her own mistakes without prompting.

Another high school learner, previously hesitant to ask for help, started speaking up when stuck on graphing "rise over run," leading to much faster progress in plotting points correctly.

In a recent primary session, a Year 4 student who'd always guessed at reading tricky words now pauses to sound them out carefully before moving on—something she avoided before—and finished the lesson by reading an entire short passage aloud.

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 Clarkson Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Joseph Banks Secondary College.
