I think my strengths as a tutor are: - ability to explain the difficult subjects in different ways - communication and social skills - tolerance and…

Tutors have two roles, One is to actively support the student who might be struggling to cope up with their peers and/or looking to improve their performance. The second is to make the student learn in a different environment from their school. Schools have multiple children and every child has some issue they are facing. As a tutor sitting 1-1…

According to my experience of tutoring high school students, the biggest challenge that students could face is the psychology in their mind which tells them they are not capable of doing that particular subject. As a tutor, I am highly aware that giving moral support is one of the most crucial things in tutoring. Another important thing would be…

Academic support is the most obvious thing a tutor can do for a student and is the number one reason any parent sends their child for tutoring.

Always tell them not to be scared to ask. I often realize students are uncomfortbale to ask when they need help. It is important to ask for help and not to be embarassed about it because developing and making it better is good rather than silent. In studying English specifically, it is good to ask them to find something relate to the language…

Local Reviews

During the first phone call, I felt the staff member was quite rushed. I had a lot to explain and felt I didn't get to finish. His final decision was no, the company probably couldn't help me but I persisted. Then it worked out in the end and I got a tutor. The tutor has attended once and I'm happy with him.

Inside ShelleyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Aryan practised dividing fractions and calculating percentages, focusing on applying these skills to piecewise defined relationships.

In Year 10, Ethan worked through factoring and expanding quadratic expressions as well as a brief introduction to compound interest using step-by-step examples.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Grace revised matrix multiplication and explored the normal distribution in statistics, also touching on key finance topics relevant to her coursework.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student struggled with factorising quadratics in a test and, as noted, "ran out of time"—test anxiety led to second-guessing answers and slow progress.

In Year 10 maths, skipping clear layout on simultaneous equations meant errors weren't spotted until feedback was given; the tutor wrote, "laying out answers properly and clearly" was still an issue.

In primary maths, one child hesitated to ask for help when stuck multiplying large numbers—missing chances to clarify confusion early.

For a senior student using the CAS Classpad, over-reliance on calculator steps made it harder to remember key finance formulas without prompts during practice.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Shelley noticed one Year 10 student, who previously hesitated to check her own work, now confidently uses the "talking aloud" technique and backchecks her answers on quadratic expansions—meaning she trusts her instincts but also double-checks without wasting time.

Another high schooler has shifted from struggling with linear equations to independently substituting values and successfully graphing lines, even explaining how slope direction changes with gradient sign.

In a younger session, a primary student who rarely participated began asking more questions when uncertain and started showing all working steps for each maths problem before moving on.

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