Tutors in Osborne Park include high-achieving graduates, experienced teachers, subject specialists, and passionate mentors from top Australian universities. Many have received academic awards or hold advanced degrees, and all share a genuine commitment to helping students succeed.
Although it is highly important that a tutor teaches their students the material covered in the syllabus, it is equally as important that the tutor teaches their students the tools required to succeed in a competitive academic environment. As a tutor, I instil in my students a great work ethic, teaching them highly effective study and time…

Above all else, I believe a tutor should prioritise student wellbeing. Beyond academic achievement, it's essential to foster a sense of belonging, confidence and self-worth in each student. This involves attentive listening, emotional support, and creating a safe, judgement-free space. Additionally, empowering students to take ownership of their…
Ensure that the student is gaining confidence and is improving. I believe its not the final result that counts, but its ensuring the student's mental health is taken care or whilst the student is experiencing a steady improvement.

Often it is the response from students that they'll never have to remember or use the content they learn again in their life, but that misses the fact that the act of learning these subjects, establishes a new kind of problem solving brain-wiring in your mind. It's not always important what you learn (depending on your career choice) but rather…

I consider a tutor responsibility towards students is to be committed and flexible. The tutor should be with their student even if both have been going through the exam period. The tutor should never cancel on a lesson with a student for their own studies. As well, it is a must to be patient towards the student and be flexible as a tutor to learn…
It's important to be able to explain concepts clearly and ensure that the student understands the concept. I also think it's important to lead by example and encourage healthy study techniques (such as showing working out, writing full sentences etc). You not only impart knowledge to them but also good study ethic. I'm an active listener, which is…
I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is leaving them with a range of tools for study that they can use on their own at school or if I’m not around.
The student being able to use study techniques that I have taught them on their own accord is what I would aim to achieve. My strengths as a tutor would have to be my…
I believe that one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student, is to help them build confidence in their own academic abilities by supporting them in a way that reinforces their sense of self achievement. It is also important for a tutor to reinforce and support the student's classroom learning, beyond set homework and assignments…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is be patient. Everyone learns at their own pace, and it can be frustrating for a student when they cannot quite grasp a tricky idea. It takes patience and understanding to help that student make positive progress. I believe that my communication skills are my greatest strength as a…
Give confidence to the student to be able to do the work independently eventually, and guide them in the right direction for doing so. If a tutor can teach and guide the student into having confidence and a good skill set to be able to feel comfortable doing the work at school, and it gives students self-assurance, then the tutor has done their…
To be fully committed to helping a student achieve above and beyond their goals.

I feel that getting to know and appreciating each individual student for who they are as a person in so important.

I believe that it is important for a tutor to provide constructive but fair feedback to their students, while also providing practical advice and support to them, so they can improve in areas where they were originally struggling. I believe that I am a patient and understanding person, who is quite personable and can talk to people easily. I have…
A tutor should be able to listen and make sure they are addressing exactly what the student needs. They should also be encouraging and attempt to focus on how the individual student's strengths and patterns of thinking can help them to solve a problem. I understand the difficulties people may face when solving a problem or trying to improve their…
In primary, tutoring often targets core arithmetic—addition, subtraction, times tables, fractions, and building number sense—while also pushing for deeper comprehension, not just rote rules. High school sessions shift to algebraic thinking, graphing, interpreting questions, and developing strong exam strategies. There’s a big emphasis on breaking down word problems, revisiting tricky homework, and test prep for NAPLAN or semester exams, always tailored to what each student finds hardest right now.
Recent Challenges
Some primary students rush through comprehension or maths tasks without fully reading instructions, leading to incomplete or off-target answers. In high school, it’s common for students to have scattered or unclear working, which makes multi-step problems harder to check and fix. Other frequent hurdles include forgetting materials, leaving homework unfinished, or spending revision time catching up on missed basics instead of moving forward—all of which can hold back progress and lead to confusion.
Recent Achievements
Tutors are noticing students becoming more proactive during lessons—regularly checking their own work, spotting errors, and making corrections without being asked. There’s a clear shift toward students verbalising their steps in maths and explaining their reasoning aloud, rather than rushing through problems. Tutors also report that learners are reviewing their test results with more care and taking the initiative to improve, showing greater confidence and ownership of their progress.
What they say about our tutoring
We are certainly happy and off to a great start. Edward has been great, punctual & helpful.
I am confident this  trend will continue and George's math will only improve.
We found Luke to be a knowledgeable and good tutor who worked well with Jessica. He was able to provide us with 2 tutoring sessions prior to Jessica's exam. I think more than anything he helped settle her nerves and was able to provide exam study strategies to enable her to approach the Chemistry exam in a prepared and calm manor.
Thanks, we all love love love Kieran. Just what both my kids needed. Awesome tutor!
