Tutoring

Do you or your child need a tutor?

DSF maintains a register of qualified specialist tutors who provide individual tutoring for children and adults across Western Australia. The majority of DSF Tutors are located in the Perth metropolitan area, however, those who require tutoring in country or remote areas can access online tutoring that is provided through a virtual classroom. DSF Tutors are appropriately trained in evidence-based teaching approaches designed to improve students’ literacy (and numeracy) skills and must attend ongoing Professional Development to remain listed as a DSF Tutor. Membership of the Foundation is necessary to access ongoing tutoring and a Tutor Request must be completed if you wish to obtain a new Tutor. The DSF Tutor Management team monitors all tutors to ensure high-quality instruction is provided to students.

Find a Tutor

DSF members can locate an appropriate DSF Tutor using our online tutor finder.

To access the Tutor Finder you need to complete a Family Membership + Tutor Request form. If you are already a Member of DSF and do not have Tutor Access please submit a Tutor Request after logging in. Once you have completed the form you will be able to access the Tutor Finder for a period of four weeks.

Are you interested in becoming a tutor?

DSF is always looking for tutors to join the Foundation to help support students across the Perth metropolitan and country areas. More information can be found on the Becoming a DSF Tutor page.
