Tutor St James, WA
The most important thing a tutor can do for their student is break down this unclimbable mountain of a problem into a simple hill. I believe that everyone has areas that they struggle with, and a lot of time with math, it's a lot less scary than it looks. I love tutoring mathematics, and have been doing so for months now, seeing year 11, 10, and 9…

Making things simpler for the student to understand is the best thing all students want from a tutor. Giving them simpler methods to do questions and encouraging them to be better are very crucial. I have been tutoring students, who couldn't afford to take private tuitions, for almost one year. I was helping them in subjects like science,…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be a positive role model. They are watching very closely and taking on many subliminal cues. I have a genuine interest in maths and physics and try my best to get others to be excited about it. I take the time to get to know students and alter my lesson plans to suit individual…

On my opinion a tutor should bring up their habit to ask more, be more interested in learning new things, and not just only improving their answering skills in the exam to get high marks/ grades.

Most tutors focus on the academic side of things for a student without catering specifically to the child's needs.

A tutor can be a complete role model for a student. The only reason why the child wanted a tutor in the first place was to understand the topic and become well versed with it. If tuition can offer this to the child, along with an interactive environment, it would help boost the child’s confidence immensely. I believe a high self esteem can…

Inside St JamesTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Mieke worked on visualising data and interpreting graphs, then solved word problems involving graphing data.

In Year 10, Ronja focused on ionic equations and practised calculating titration quantities using stoichiometric ratios.

For Year 11, Fatima reviewed redox equations and oxidation numbers before revisiting subatomic particles and tackling linear equations relevant to chemistry calculations.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Chemistry, the student still shows some minor mistakes in writing chemical formulas, especially when revising ionic and polyatomic ions—missteps that lingered after sessions unless earlier material was rechecked.

A Year 9 student did not complete assigned homework or maintain a school notebook, making it difficult to track progress in new math concepts.

For a Year 6 learner, untidy handwriting made written work hard to read, leading to confusion during revision.

In English (Year 10), one student hesitated to organize thoughts on paper, often leaving drafts unfinished; as the tutor noted, "she writes well but is often hesitant."

Recent Achievements

One St James tutor noticed a Year 11 student who previously relied heavily on guidance now summarising the main steps for balancing ionic equations and explaining the stoichiometric ratio's importance in titration problems—an area that had caused confusion before.

In another session, a high schooler began independently solving questions after gaps in balancing half-equations were addressed; she tackled most homework with minimal help, marking a real shift from earlier sessions.

Meanwhile, a younger student who used to rush through English assignments is now catching silly mistakes by reviewing his work more carefully, leading to clearer handwriting and fewer errors overall.

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 Victoria Park Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Millen Primary School.
