I consider patience to be very essential when it comes to teaching. In order to be able to guide a student in the best possible way, I strongly feel that a tutor should understand the needs of a student and take the time to lead them in the direction that they aim to achieve. Motivation is also key as it is usually effective if pushing a student…

I believe the most benefical things a tutor can do for a student is to foster comprehension, build confidence and encourage independent thinking. Even though it is important to help a student comprehend the topic, it is equally important that we make a comfortable environment for them to make mistakes, learn from them, ask even slighest of doubts.…

One of the most important things a tutor can do is to try to find out the way the student learns best. Whether it is visually, auditory, or another way, the tutor should try to teach in a way that the student can learn the easiest, especially for primary school kids so they can begin to enjoy learning and studying instead of it being a boring task…

Inside Mount RichonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Isabelle focused on trigonometry basics and solving quadratic equations, as well as revising exam papers to strengthen understanding.

In Year 10, Ethan worked through compound interest calculations and practiced applying the sine equation, using worked examples for clarity.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Sam tackled fraction multiplication and division before moving onto a brief introduction to quadratic equations and some hands-on geometry activities.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student struggled to keep their notes organised during geometry revision, which made it hard to track errors and slowed down correction—"it would be nice to have notes ready, we can discuss notes organisation next time."

In Year 11, one student did not complete their worksheet and left some homework unfinished, missing out on vital practice for multi-digit operations.

For a Year 10 learner, over-reliance on the calculator during algebra meant working steps were skipped; this caused repeated sign mistakes that weren't caught until late in the session.

Each of these habits led to confusion or lost learning time.

Recent Achievements

A Mount Richon tutor recently noticed that a Year 10 student, who had previously struggled with trigonometry, became visibly more comfortable after working through targeted practice and even finished the tougher ratio questions using a basketball analogy—something he couldn't do before.

In Year 8, another student who used to keep quiet during sessions now comes prepared with her own questions and isn't afraid to ask for clarification when stuck, showing real initiative compared to earlier lessons.

Meanwhile, a primary schooler surprised her tutor by remembering how to convert fractions to percentages weeks after their last session and volunteered to tackle new fraction problems without hesitation.

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 Armadale Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Armadale Senior High School.
