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! Of course it is important to push students, but it is equally important to build their self confidence. One of my strengths is my patience. Thanks to my past experience as a Teacher's…

Sometimes students are going through external things that may affect their progress. Slow progress does not always mean that they are not trying.

I think it is necessary that…

Local Reviews

We have been very happy with this company and the quality of their tutor. I have received communication to check that my son was happy and have been asked for feedback good or bad along the way. Nothing to report but positive feedback. The tutor is on time and makes herself available for additional tutoring sessions prior to exams and has been helping my son be more organised. My son is feeling a lot more confident. I can't ask for more than that!?

Inside KensingtonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Harry focused on addition and subtraction skills, including back-checking answers for accuracy, and strengthened understanding of place value using targeted homework tasks.

In Year 8, Zoe worked through surface area and volume problems for both two- and three-dimensional shapes, as well as practicing factorisation with sample questions from her school resources.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Josh completed exam-style bivariate data questions, interpreting two-way tables to identify associations between variables and briefly reviewed explanatory versus response variables in real-world datasets.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student tackling statistics often missed key words in questions, which meant important details were overlooked—"missing key information in question - needs to utilise highlighter better," as one tutor noted.

In Year 8, a learner's written maths work sometimes lacked neatness and clear working, especially when subtracting negative numbers or handling brackets; this led to confusion and made errors harder to spot later.

Meanwhile, a primary student moving into multiplication admitted struggling but tended to focus only on the easier tables, avoiding the more challenging ones during revision sessions. The result: moments of uncertainty and lost time retracing steps.

Recent Achievements

One Kensington tutor noticed a real shift in a Year 11 student's approach to exam prep—after struggling with exam-style questions earlier in the term, she completed nearly an entire practice exam independently over the weekend and tackled tricky bivariate data questions with strong retention.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student who previously hesitated to ask for help is now openly flagging when she finds certain maths problems difficult, allowing her tutor to target those gaps together.

In primary sessions, Scarlett has moved from skipping backchecking steps to now double-checking every subtraction answer out loud and completing her worksheet almost entirely on her own.

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