In my opinion, the most vital thing that can be done is to teach students a learning pattern they can follow so they can develop their problem solving skills and learn from their mistakes. My already-patient attitude which further improves as I have to mentor my easily-distracted little sister in her studies. My ability to communicate in both…

Understanding and patience, some students lack knowledge of basic concepts and require a boost, so it's important to tailor tutoring styles to each student, whether that is written examples or oral analogies, especially in the Maths and Sciences. I can simplify things to the most basic form, which is what I needed help with when I was in high…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student are to build their confidence, develop their critical thinking skills, and provide personalised support. A tutor should create a comfortable learning environment where students feel safe asking questions and making mistakes. Instead of just providing answers, I focus on guiding students to…

I believe a tutor should teach a student how to love a subject instead of do it. For a student to be able to realise why they adore the subject and why they are studying it in the first place. A tutor should try their best to allow their students to feel like they are in a safe place, where they can ask any questions and feel free without feeling…

To be supportive and try to put in the place of student to understand his/her problem. A tutor must guide the students using different approaches to relate the topics with his surroundings.

The tutor-student relationship should be viewed as a partnership, the tutor should not take the role of the instructor. Students should feel that a tutor is always there to support, to work with the student and to supplement classroom and individual study. Making a good rapport with the student can achieve great two-way communication, get to know…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to ensure that the student feels they are being listened to and meeting their needs. For example, it is essential to work at the pace of your student, if your student only wants to pass their subject it is your job to make sure they are best suited for that to happen. Or if your student…

A tutor straddles the line between teacher and friend, and they are often closer in age to their students, making them more relatable and more likely to help their students get comfortable. A tutor's unique position could add a new dimension to a student’s learning, as they can receive guidance from someone who is both relatable but also…

The first thing would be to establish a plan of goals and expectations and help the student identify their role in this plan. Once a tutor has an idea of the expectation of the parents/school/ students then only can progress take shape, and this might have many forms and variations as to how this is executed as the student grows or stalls. So,…

The most important thing a tutor can do for their student is to celebrate even the smallest of wins. No matter how slow or hard progress is, it is still progress!

A tutor has to make sure a student enjoys the content they are learning that they want to improve rather than just being there because their parents made them take the tutoring.

Our tutoring with Mahmud is going well, he is very personable and knowledgeable and has established a good rapport with Jessica over the three sessions we have had. Jessica has felt more confident in class too.
Melissa, Canning Vale

Inside WillettonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Sam focused on simultaneous equations and was introduced to basic trigonometry, working through example problems step by step.

Year 10 student Jessica tackled quadratic equations and factorising perfect squares, with extra attention given to identifying the differences using guided exercises.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Lucas practised area and perimeter calculations across different shapes, applying formulas in written tasks for reinforcement.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 maths, a student often skipped showing steps in algebra and rushed through content without asking questions—"he tends to jump over many aspects of working out," as one tutor observed. This led to confusion when tackling harder problems solo.

Meanwhile, a Year 12 student struggled with timing during exams, finishing with no chance to check answers, which meant errors sometimes went unnoticed.

In lower years, one learner used a calculator for simple times tables like 5x8 instead of recalling facts by memory; another hesitated to attempt questions due to second-guessing herself and low confidence after mistakes.

Recent Achievements

One Willetton tutor noticed a Year 10 student who previously avoided showing working in maths now consistently writes out each step, which has helped him score above 85% on a recent English assessment and tackle tougher maths papers more confidently.

In Year 9 science, another student began asking thoughtful questions about anatomy—linking new content to personal experiences like bronchitis—and later explained those concepts back without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner who once hesitated with times tables now eagerly searches for patterns and self-corrects number reversals during sessions, recently getting through multiplication drills without reminders.

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