Tutors need to be patient, not every student is equally as smart, or equally as attentive. You have to find a balance. A great example I think would be is planting a seed. After you put the seed in the ground, you can put all the water in the world, but it's not gonna grow into a tree in just one day, just like a student, you will break the…

I believe understanding the calibre of the student and providing constant motivation is something a tutor must importantly do for a student because quite often the individuality of a student gets lost in class and so the tutor needs to grab onto that individuality of the student so that they can not just progress ahead academically but also stand…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is help them understand a topic in a way that they understand. What I mean by this, is that not one student is the same as another. Some are visual learners and need practical explanations or materials to assist them to understand, others students may be auditory learners who require spoken…

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…

I think that the most important things that a tutor can do for a student are to personalise the tutoring sessions and to inspire them to achieve their goals. Teachers in a classroom setting can not personalise their lesson plan to each individual student and thus are unable to get the information across to some students. What a tutor can do is…

The most important thing a tutor can do is to teach in a way suited to the student. The content being taught doesn't matter if the student isn't being perceptive to it, so a tutor must find a way to teach that accommodates for a student and how they prefer to learn. I think my greatest strengths are flexibility and knowledge of the subjects. As I…

The important thing a tutor can do is to have patience and belief for their student. There will be times where the student will struggle even after a tutor shows or explains the problem.

I think as a tutor it is important to make sure your students feel safe and supported at all times. It is also important to not belittle students but rather always encourage them no matter what.

Inside White Gum ValleyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Sam worked on multiplication and division using the 4 times table, as well as telling time to the nearest quarter hour.

Year 8 student Mia focused on prime factorisation and calculating the lowest common multiple (LCM) of two numbers, using factor trees for clarity.

For Year 10, Alex tackled solving quadratics and identifying turning points, alongside practice with modelling real-world scenarios using quadratic equations.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student showed reluctance to admit gaps in understanding trigonometric functions, making it difficult to address misconceptions—she still has trouble a) admitting that she has a gap in her knowledge and b) understanding fundamentally what trig functions are and do.

In Year 8 algebra, missing note-taking during online lessons meant confusion lingered when evaluating angles with variables.

A Year 5 student experienced ongoing challenges recalling rules for divisibility and prime factorisation, which slowed progress during complex number tasks.

Each moment of hesitation or skipped feedback led to time spent circling the same problems instead of building new confidence.

Recent Achievements

One White Gum Valley tutor noticed a Year 10 student who previously hesitated with indices now confidently applies index laws and even tackles standard form questions independently.

In Year 7, another student who used to rush through maths is now consistently talking aloud during problem-solving, carefully setting out each step—successfully factorising more complex problems as a result of this shift.

Meanwhile, a younger learner in Year 3 has started double-checking subtraction answers by reversing the calculation, showing real initiative after often skipping this step before. Last week, she finished all ten problems without needing any prompts.

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 City of Fremantle: Fremantle Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Fremantle College.
