English Tutor Como, WA
I believe explaining a concept in such a way that the student understands it intuitively and can thus use that understanding to solve different problems, rather than simply rote-learning a series of facts, is an incredibly important part of being a tutor. The tutor should be adding to a student's toolkit such that they can solve a variety of…

English Tutor Dalkeith, WA
A tutor does not just teach a student a particular subject. I believe that the most important function of a tutor is to foster overall academic confidence in a student and to develop better study techniques/learning habits more generally. A good tutor can give a student motivation and techniques to achieve not only in the tutored subject, but in…

First and foremost it would be building a strong rapport with the student and gaining mutual trust and respect. This builds a foundation of confidence and comfort which optimises a students ability to learn and their attitude towards learning. Tutors should be adaptable and be able to target the teaching to each students unique way of learning. …

English Tutor Manning, WA
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 a student is listen to them. Listening to them and understanding their point of view when something seems difficult for them, even when it isn't really from my perspective. Then combatting this problem by exploring different ways to present a difficult concept. I do this using analogies and using simple…

I think that, as I said earlier, building confidence is an important thing, so that students can be self-sufficient. I also think that when they take pride in their work, they can achieve beyond their own expectations. I have a lot of experience in coaching children in soccer (aged 2-12) and I also have two sisters aged 7 and 17. I think that…

As stated in the previous section, I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to listen. Although we are there to direct their study, there are a range of other things a student may face in their life. I'm not there just as an academic instructor, I also want to be able to relate to the person in front of me and assist them…

I think one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is be understanding.

The tutor must also be able to slightly adapt their teaching ways, tailored towards each individual student to target their learning methods. I…

Teach a concept, ensure the student can understand it, and eventually get to the point where they can apply that concept to a question, without any help. As a tutor, I also have a duty of care to ensure a student can manage their workload, rather than worrying 24/7. My strengths as a tutor are my communication/people skills, my knowledge in the…

The most important thing is to ensure that a student properly understands the task in front of them so that at a later stage, they are able to work independently and without assistance.

First, I think a tutor should have good subject and curriculum knowledge so that they may be able to provide as much information as they can towards the kids. I think communication skills is another important thing a tutor must have (the way they explain the topics so that it is easy for the students to understand). Finally a tutor must be patient…

One of the most important thing to do is to understand what the student needs. Through careful evaluation a tutor should identify the student's weakness and put more focus on that area. Another important thing is to always address their questions. Sometimes my students asked me questions which I did not know the answer to, so I looked up on the…

I think that as a tutor, we should be different from teachers at school.

Therefore, I think that conducting a personalized teaching plan for the students to observe and explore what methods they can…

Inside KardinyaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Aiden worked on applying index laws to simplify expressions and practiced interpreting and sketching linear graphs.

In Year 10, Jasmine focused on trigonometric ratios in right-angled triangles and explored probability concepts using real-life examples.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Michael tackled differentiation techniques for polynomial functions and learned to find stationary points of curves, including some practice with related rates of change problems.

Recent Challenges

Several senior students preparing for exams, such as in Year 11 and 12 Mathematics, struggled with organization—many could not provide clear dates for upcoming assessments or lacked a study plan, which led to last-minute revision and incomplete exam preparation.

In one Year 10 scenario, "he hadn't started his assignment until just before the due date," resulting in rushed work.

Meanwhile, some Year 3–6 learners missed homework tasks or did not consistently review multiplication tables at home; as one note observed, "practice times tables before dinner" was often forgotten.

This scattered approach meant key topics weren't revised in time for tests.

Recent Achievements

One Kardinya tutor noticed a Year 11 student who previously waited for direction now taking initiative—setting up her own study plan and asking for extra practice before exams.

In Year 9, a student known to get stuck on exponential functions started tackling tougher questions independently after gaining clarity in recent sessions.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who was usually hesitant to speak out has begun explaining answers out loud during lessons, showing more willingness to share ideas. Last week, she wrote a full page of notes for her upcoming test without prompting.

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 Willagee Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like North Lake Senior Campus.
