Psychology Tutor Nedlands, WA
Being patient with a student has to be the most important. Learning isn’t the same for everyone and some areas of learning are harder for some people. Remaining patient and staying kind while a child is learning is extremely important. I am a patient person, who can think creatively and how to teach subjects in different ways to suit different…

Psychology Tutor Herdsman, WA
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is motivate them and help them realise that they can succeed and help them to really understand the subject and be able to use this understanding to achieve good grades.

Psychology Tutor Wembley Downs, WA
The important thing a tutor can do for a student is make them feel more confident about their abilities and knowledge. The more they can back them-self, the more they can be composed in a test environment, the better they perform in test conditions, the better their marks. Like a positive feedback loop, this will also increase confidence;better…

I believe that it is important for a tutor to provide constructive but fair feedback to their students, while also providing practical advice and support to them, so they can improve in areas where they were originally struggling. I believe that I am a patient and understanding person, who is quite personable and can talk to people easily. I have…

Psychology Tutor Perth, WA
Listen and teach. I think it is so important for students to be listened to and helped accordingly. They must be given the space to work through problems they are facing themselves so that they can believe in their own abilities and increase their own self-efficacy. It is vital that the student can not only regurgitate an answer or process but…

I believe that instilling self-belief and critical thinking is the most important things a tutor can do for their student. Reflecting on my year 12 as got a score that I felt wasn't enough for medicine (96.00 ATAR), I have learnt to become someone who is collaborative and believes in a growth mindset after my a failure. in Year 12. I believe…

I think the most important is to follow the students lead. They will often know their weaknesses and from spending time working with them, you can take note of possible areas of improvement. However, at the end of the day you are there to help the student so by listening and communicating effectively both parties will be satisfied. The ability to…

Help with specific questions they have, not just go over every syllabus point each lesson, thus tailoring the lesson to their pace. Allow them to build confidence and actually enjoy the subject they are doing. Provide tips and tricks for their other subjects as well, especially in year 11 and year 12! Create a good relationship with the students…

Inside ClaremontTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Ethan focused on exponential functions and polynomial equations, including practice with graphing and algebraic manipulation.

In Year 10, Mia tackled the circle theorem and polynomial division, working through geometric proofs alongside algebraic long division problems.

For primary support, Year 4 student Tilly worked on multiplication strategies for two- and three-digit numbers as well as area and perimeter calculations using real-life worded examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student found it difficult to slow down and write out all variables when approaching physics questions, leading to confusion over what was being asked. "It is always best practice to slow down and write down all your variables prior to starting any working out," one tutor observed after a rushed attempt left key steps missing.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student sometimes skipped back-checking answers in algebra, which meant sign errors weren't spotted until much later.

In primary maths, a Year 4 student struggled with lining up numbers during addition and subtraction, resulting in misplaced digits and basic calculation errors.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Claremont recently noticed some great changes: one high school student who used to rush through tests has started slowing down to carefully read each question, which helped him spot and fix errors he previously missed.

Another older student now uses pen-to-paper and back-checking strategies without being prompted—just a few weeks ago, she needed reminders for these steps but now applies them on her own when tackling complex worksheets.

In primary sessions, a Year 5 girl who struggled with her 7 times tables is now able to answer random multiplication questions quickly and confidently.

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 Claremont Community Hub & Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Methodist Ladies' College.
