The most important thing a tutor can do for a student would be to assist them with their studies and be a part of their learning journey. In addition, it would be to show understanding and respect for the student and acknowledge that every student has potential but they might just need a little bit of help along the way. I think that my strengths…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to not only help them understand and get better at the content but also to help them gain confidence in their learning. Most students get tutoring because they are not understanding the content taught to them by their teachers at school so it is the tutor's job to teach in a way that makes…

The most important thing I can do for a student is to help them develop the required skills to succeed on their own. Brute memorisation is rarely ever enough. My aim is to unpack the underlying mechanics of each concept so that my students have what it takes to tackle problems independently. My teaching style is based on student interaction. I…

A tutor should be able to consider the wants and needs of the student, as well as keeping a steadily growing pace in terms of learning content. If a student is lacking in a specific area, the tutor should be able to recognise that and determine or formulate content plans to help mitigate that. I believe any and every student should learn and…

A tutor most importantly needs to understand the areas that the students need improvement. Considering their ability to grasp new concepts and learning styles, a tutor will have to design their teaching methods to suit a particular student. Lastly, a tutor should always encourage their students which will help them gain the confidence to try new…

The greatest a tutor can do to help a student is, instead of explaining the method or process of every single question. the tutor needs to make sure that he gave a brief introduction on why he is studying that topic and explain the topic conceptually.

Inside WestlakeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 student Sanvi focused on refining her chemistry assignment rationale and analysis, then practiced exam-style questions on acid-base equilibria and buffer solutions.

In Year 11, Ethan reviewed the application of log laws to algebraic equations in math before switching to chemistry to explore VSEPR theory and its impact on molecular shape using diagrams.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Priya completed revision on Pythagoras' theorem with targeted practice problems and wrapped up her work on algebraic expressions by solving index law questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9, a student avoided writing out solutions in algebra, often saying, "I can do this in my head," which led to sign errors that went unnoticed until revision.

A Year 11 chemistry student was reminded to "clean up the rationale" and follow the given structure, as messy formatting made it hard to locate key arguments during peer review.

In senior maths (Year 12), over-reliance on calculators for logarithmic equations meant basic log laws were not committed to memory—this slowed progress on non-calculator tasks.

One younger learner missed assigned homework entirely, leaving foundational concepts unpracticed by next lesson.

Recent Achievements

One Westlake tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to leave assignments until the last minute now starting chemistry tasks early, giving her time to improve her rationale and make real links between concepts.

In Year 12 maths, a student who previously hesitated on practice exams has started attempting every question independently and can now derive and integrate complex functions with much less prompting.

Meanwhile, a younger student showed a shift from guessing at diagrams in problem-solving questions to drawing them out purposefully before working through each step—something he'd avoided before.

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 Mount Ommaney Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Middle Park State School.
