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.
Motivate / Inspire - Without motivation, even brilliant students don't succeed. I was always a bright student but I was never motivated to do more until I met this chemistry teacher in my 11th grade. He not only inspired us, he taught different ways to approach studying and learning, he helped us choose a career path that would best suit us and…
1. Simplify and relate lessons to real life scenarios.
2. Tutors must have the ability to inspire the students and make them like the subject.
3. Along with the lessons tutors must build an authentic relationship with students. The more students become comfortable; it is easier for tutors to impart the concepts.
4. Tutor's must adapt to…
Make them feel grounded and comfortable in their present studies so that they may be prepared for the studies in future. This comes in tandem with teaching a guise of humility and realism of the student and their future endeavours. Humorous, empathetic, patient and the ability to apply a unique perspective if necessary. These qualities make it…
Encourage them! Sometimes the issue isn't in the difficulty of the concept, but that they don't believe in themselves. I believe bringing the right attitude of positive reinforcement can really make a difference as well as demonstrating a ton of examples, so the student can establish a pattern. I believe everyone can be good at Maths. It just…
I can simplify learning materials to suit to the learning ability of the tutee and work on an approach that brings significant progress. I can easily identify areas of learning difficulties faced by a student and provide support according to tutee's ability to grasp the learning…
The most important things as a tutor include being an expert on the subject and being able to explain in detail without unneccesary complexity, ensuring that the student understands the content fully and ensuring that learning is enjoyable. My past tutoring experience and my great marks in Mathematics means that I posses the ability to effectively…
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to teach them how to solve problems. To approach problems logically and critically so that they can confidently solve problems (whether it be a maths or a physics problem) independently. From personal experience, my strengths involve:
- Teaching independent thinking and problem solving…
As a tutor, My primary responsibility would be to build a positive relationship between my student and support them with their academic and/or mental weaknesses, in addition, my role would also include building their knowledge for the future and prepare them for their academic success ahead. In order to maximise their gain, I would build a…
The tutor should understand his subject matter to be able to deliver complicated ideas to the students simply and concisely. If the tutor cannot do so, he should further his knowledge of that subject matter. I love to use descriptive and outside the box methods to understand mathematical concepts. Because school teaching is restrict by time, the…
Making the student believe that Knowledge is Power. Understand and identify where exactly the student is struggling or facing difficulties. Also making sure that the student is in the right headspace at the time of studying is equally important. Firstly, I try and understand the current progress of the student. I believe in making the person…
It is important to build a relationship with the student and to always guide them but not push them to their limits. It is also important that the student understands how its done, while having them memorise a pattern is easy, allowing them to understand how to solve these types of questions will allow them to apply their solution to more things.…
Firstly, providing a clear train of thought for the student is the most important thing. Second, cultivating logical thinking is vital in math for every student. Patience, enthusiastic and professional knowledge. I have a 4-year math background especially for calculus, linear algebra, probability theory and mathematical…
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to make the student want to study the subject, instead of relying on others for help. In other words, building a foundation of passion for the subject. I believe that my strengths are trying to get the student to not just repeat practice questions, but also try to understand the…
The most important thing for a tutor to do is making the student feel in control of their learning and making sure they understand the relevant concepts with minimal hassle from either party. My strengths as a tutor are the fact that I can explain complex/difficult concept in a way that can be easily understood by the students. Also, due to my…
The important thing a tutor can do for a student is make them feel more confident about their abilities and knowledge. The more they can back them-self, the more they can be composed in a test environment, the better they perform in test conditions, the better their marks. Like a positive feedback loop, this will also increase confidence;better…
- Help them learn the logical and systematic way to solve a problem. Teach them the method and the thinking behind it rather than just the answer.
- Help them build up independent studying. I'll be constantly challenging them to solve problems on their own, in a way that could force them to think independently and more efficient.
- Build up…
Empathy. Teachers who are quick tempered and create hostile environments do not encourage learning. I find I learn best in a supportive environment and hence I will create one for my students. I am able to break down complex topics into easy to understand analogies and also can explain through drawings and…
The most important thing I can do for a student is to foster a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and sharing their struggles. By creating this atmosphere, I help students develop a deeper understanding of challenging topics. Tailoring a personalised learning experience for each student. This enables them to…
I think it is important to teach the fundamentals so that students have a clear understanding of the basic concepts. I believe it is also important to clearly communicate ideas so that they can then communicate them clearly themselves. Moreover, it is crucial to encourage students to think critically by giving them the opportunity to independently…
I think one extremely important thing a tutor can do is to adapt their teaching to the individual needs and abilities of each student, and adapt themselves to the student, not force the student to adapt to them. This involves listening to the student and observing how they work and then responding to those things. Another extremely important thing…
The most crucial aspects a tutor can offer a student include personalized guidance, clear explanations, and a supportive learning environment. Tailoring the teaching approach to suit the student's individual learning style and pace fosters a deeper understanding. Additionally, providing clear and concise explanations of complex concepts helps…
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
It's all going very well. Billy really likes her and said she is clarifying a lot for him.
I'm conscious that they are rushing through things at school so have told Mithra to take her time and not move on to new areas until she is satisfied he grasps it.
Monique is very happy. In just two lessons, she has found a huge difference. I commend Katy as Monique finds her very knowledgeable, friendly and easy going. I am pleased as I too can see the huge difference in Monique's confidence.
Thank you for recommending Katy, she is a marvel.
All good so far. Lauren has said that she is coping better in Maths at School so that's a good start.
