English Tutor Bunbury, WA
I think that it is important for a tutor to instill confidence in a student and encourage them to believe in their abilities and potential. I believe that it is also important for a tutor to create a supportive environment in which the student feels comfortable asking questions without the fear of embarrassment.

Inside UsherTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Emily focused on Pythagoras' theorem and solving algebraic equations, also working through simple interest calculations with step-by-step examples.

In Year 9, Sarah reviewed scientific notation and index laws, clarifying past test issues to strengthen her understanding of exponents.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Jack practised writing narrative plans based on creative prompts and completed comprehension questions while reading 'The Outsiders' in preparation for class discussions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student struggled with using diagrams to fully answer multi-part science questions, sometimes leaving parts incomplete when not all figures were considered.

In Year 11, a student spent too long on tough exam questions and ran out of time for sections they knew well—"she didn't attempt the final geometry problem despite having practiced it."

For Year 7 English, one student left their practice paragraph at home and missed out on feedback that session; another did not complete assigned narrative homework, feeling "stuck" after writing only the introduction.

Without bringing materials or completing set tasks, opportunities for growth were missed.

Recent Achievements

One Usher tutor noticed a Year 10 student who previously hesitated to share his ideas is now volunteering original responses during writing tasks and completing two practice paragraphs for homework, even selecting strong examples without prompting.

A Year 7 student who struggled with multi-step index laws recently worked through indices questions independently, only needing minimal clarification.

Meanwhile, a younger student in Year 3 initially resisted maths games but ended up enjoying them and tackled the hidden message activity on her own. In the last session, she completed all time worksheets independently after reviewing key clock markers.

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 Withers Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like SEDA College WA (Withers Rotary Av.).
