Physics Tutor Ridgewood, WA
A tutor can bring in enjoyment into students even when they study. Most of the students don't enjoy study time the main reason being they don't understand certain concepts and find it hard. But a physics tutor can explain that to students in a way they understand bring in interest thereby the enjoyment factor into it. I have great patience, good…

Physics Tutor Merriwa, WA
I believe a student can be guided to produce his/her best abilities. A tutor has the role of presenting an environment for exploration, discovery, guide learner in making observations and drawing conclusions, while assessing their ability to solve problems. My strength includes the following: mastery of the math concepts Good communication…

Physics Tutor Tapping, WA
Students are different from each other, some are fast learner while others are the opposite. As a physics tutor, I think its important to deliver a lesson that is easy to comprehend regardless of how academic the students are. I am more to lean to visual than texts. Since one of my hobbies is drawing, I would use this skill to deliver visual aid…

Physics Tutor Joondalup, WA
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…

Inside RidgewoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Sarah worked on addition and subtraction with large numbers and decimals, as well as perimeter calculations using real-life measurement examples.

Year 9 student Daniel tackled simultaneous equations in two variables by rearranging and combining equations to eliminate unknowns, followed by solving for each variable using substitution.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Jasmine focused on trigonometry problems involving angles of elevation and depression, practising diagram-based questions to strengthen her understanding.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 algebra, skipping working when rearranging equations often led to confusion with signs; as one tutor noted, "he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors."

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student relied heavily on her iPad calculator for maths but found it distracting during sessions—this made it harder to focus on surface area problems.

In Year 12 Chemistry, not bringing home assessment sheets meant missed teacher expectations and less targeted revision.

A Year 5 student hesitated to start worded fraction questions, sometimes avoiding attempts if unsure. This reluctance slowed progress and left tricky concepts unpracticed.

Recent Achievements

One Ridgewood tutor noticed a big change in Ella (Year 10), who had previously been hesitant to share her ideas but is now actively offering opinions during essay planning, especially when linking film themes to quotes.

In a recent high school maths session, Kyle managed to complete more challenging questions much faster and with fewer errors than at the start of tutoring—a clear leap in both speed and accuracy.

Meanwhile, Isabella in Year 4 surprised her tutor by quickly mastering her 9-times tables after having only just memorised the basics, finishing a full set without prompts.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

It's going very well so far and Caitlin and Isabella have bonded very well Her confidence is already increasing so I think this will be a good arrangement

Yes we are very happy with Georgia and Catrina seems to be enjoying maths again. I have also recommended Georgia to another parent at my daughters school

Agnes quickly determined the areas that we could see Charlotte was struggling with. It was lovely to see Charlotte's body language change during the course of the first session from slumped over looking disinterested to sitting up and engaging with Agnes by the end of the hour. I had never seen her like that when we have sat down to do maths before. I knew that I lacked the strategies to give to Charlotte and Agnes is certainly showing her these patiently and with the support she needed.

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 Alkimos Baptist College.
