Science Tutor Pennington, SA
If a student is not able to understand the concept, a tutor should change pedagogy. A tutor can take help of learning aid, activity based learning etc. I come to the mental level of the student according to the grade and individual differences. I try to develop basic concepts first and then proceed further. I can teach in both ways either one to…

Provide the student with a safe learning space and supporting the student in their learning. If a student feels intimidated and uncomfortable to ask questions and clarify any information, they will not learn as effectively. Every student has different needs, so it's important to identify how the student learns and teach them in a way that will…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is creating lesson plans and methods based around that student.

It is very important the tutor brings a sense of fun to the lesson, to urge the student to want to learn…

Local Reviews

I can't fault Emmad to be honest. His gentle soft nature and patience works beautifully with my daughter. He explains everything and makes sure that my daughter understands before moving on. I couldn't ask for a better tutor than Emmad. He is one of the best we have ever had. He even takes the time after the session to sit down with me as a parent to explain everything he has gone through in the session.I would highly recommend Emmad.

Inside FindonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student 91783 worked on proofs for sequences and series using the Principle of Mathematical Induction, building a step-by-step understanding of this advanced reasoning method.

Year 10 student 119835 focused on trigonometry, specifically practising problems involving sine, cosine, and tangent ratios in right-angled triangles.

For Year 4, 104111 split time between exploring metaphors and similes in English by identifying examples in short texts, and reviewing foundational number concepts in maths.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student was reluctant to write out full working in algebra, preferring to "just do it in my head," which led to sign errors and confusion with negative numbers.

In Year 5, a student often left diagrams incomplete when asked about area and perimeter—according to the notes, "he wasn't sure which formula fit each shape," making it harder to check his answers later.

For a Year 10 learner, forgetting to label axes when plotting graphs meant points were misplaced or unclear, causing uncertainty during feedback. This hesitation slowed their progress through multi-step problems and left them doubting their results.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Findon noticed a Year 10 student who previously rushed through algebra problems now pausing to double-check each step and even asking for clarification when expanding expressions, instead of guessing.

In a recent Year 8 session, a student who used to skip over tricky geometry questions chose to tackle unknown angles in triangles on her own, carefully showing her reasoning as she worked.

Meanwhile, a primary school student made a noticeable shift by independently explaining the difference between units of length—something he struggled to articulate before—and confidently completed his worksheet without prompts.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

The tuition is going very well - we love Sigrid and Sian has improved in her confidence and ability beyond our expectations.

Liam and Georgie liked Stephanie and found her explanations and teachings simple and easy to understand.  They seem to be very happy with her which is great after only 1 session each!

Thank you for the email. Alex is here now tutoring Sarah.  He is absolutely fantastic and has really helped her improve. We would like to stop the tutoring for now and see how Sarah goes in Term IV. If she finds anything difficult and requires another tutor I will contact you to arrange.

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 Findon Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Nazareth Catholic College - Kidman Park Campus.
