Physics Tutor Direk, SA
I believe the most important thing a physics tutor can do for a student is to give them the confidence to never stop trying to learn despite few low moments. I personally, encourage students to ask even the most basic questions which come across their mind and to never feel ashamed of wanting to learn more or being curious. In my opinion,…

Sometimes a student needs more than just a physics tutor who can teach him or her difficult contents; they also need someone who can provide them with encouragement and support so they can start believing in their own skills. A tutor can come up with millions of strategies to apply in order to deliver a lesson, but it'll be worthless if you don't…

Constantly checking up on them. Not in just terms of their learning (granted, it is very important) but also how they are feeling about the study and the method of teaching.

I think the best tutor is one who guides the students properly and fairly not only in their academics but also about life challenges. Most importantly a physics tutor should be ready to explain a single concept even 10 times to students if they are not able to get that without getting annoyed Well , I'm quite patient which I think is my biggest…

As I alluded to earlier, I think the student's enjoyment is extremely important. That's not to say that they should be having fun at the expense of gaining knowledge, much the contrary; I think the best way for a student to gain knowledge that will last beyond the next test or exam is to have it conveyed in such a way that they take a genuine…

I believe a Tutor should be able to sympathise with and understand the students' mindset, each student has their own way of learning and their own learning speed.

A tutor can certainly change a child's mindset towards any subject because it all depends on making the basics of a subject strong so that there is no further problem. i must mention that I personally believe that there is no such thing as a silly question, so whatever doubts a student might face even if he assumes it to be silly, I am always…

For high school students, I find that the most important thing a physics tutor can do is to build a student's confidence in their own abilities. More often than not, I hear student's say that they don't know what they're doing, which can hold them back from trying their best. It's a fact of psychology that people tend to sabotage their own efforts…

Inside DirekTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Vikrant worked on basic addition using counting strategies and practiced vowel patterns like -ay, -ap, and -at through word completion exercises.

In Year 8, Amelia focused on calculating the perimeter of irregular shapes and finding the circumference of incomplete circles using diagrams to support understanding.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Suhana strengthened her skills in surface area by working through problems involving cubes, rectangular prisms, and cones, as well as revising area formulas for composite shapes.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 Maths, one student hesitated to talk through their reasoning and needed encouragement to explain steps—this made it harder to identify where confusion started during Pythagoras' Theorem and rearranging equations. As a tutor noted, "she tends to say 'I don't know' quickly instead of unpacking her thinking."

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student struggled with back-checking answers when finding the area of composite shapes, often missing units or misapplying operations unless prompted.

In upper primary (Year 5), another found multiplication drills overwhelming and lost focus during multi-step problems, leading to unfinished work when memory recall faltered.

Recent Achievements

A Direk tutoring session saw one Year 10 student become much more independent with Pythagoras' theorem—he worked through problems without needing help and fixed small errors on his own, a big step from relying on prompts before.

Another high schooler began backchecking her maths work out of habit, catching mistakes herself rather than waiting for the tutor to point them out.

For a younger learner, after struggling with number order past ten, he can now fill in missing numbers up to twenty almost error-free and will even trace new words while saying them aloud—something he'd never tried at the start.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Kaitlyn and Jet have had a wonderful start to the term. Judging by the two lessons his had she has managed to make a world of difference already. Kaitlyn has a wonderful personality and has so much patience. I have nothing but praise for her.

Yes I have spoken with Chirag this afternoon. He seems really lovely, confident, competent and friendly and I think someone like this is going to be ideal for our Pops.

Zane is finally grasping concepts that he always found confusing in class. Alan has been very patient with Zane, as there is quite a bit of work to do. Zane would not have received this personal time in class, due to time, disruptions etc.. Thank goodness we are starting now before NAPLAN in 2 weeks and highschool in 2019.

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 Burton Community Hub Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Lake Windemere B-6 School.
