Zachary

Ancient History Tutor Tea Tree Gully, SA
Most importantly, a tutor can lead a student to realise what they are capable of. This kind of core belief change leads a student to have the self-confidence to reach their full potential, including their best learning. I am patient, understanding and compassionate. Even if a young person's lack of self-confidence results in negative behaviour, I…

Ancient History Tutor Golden Grove, SA
I think the most important thing that a tutor can do for their student is remaining patient and continue to persevere with the content. In my experience, if I didn't understand a concept or was struggling with a question, it was extremely helpful when my tutor continued to talk me through the topic and didn't get frustrated at me for not…

Pay attention to the student and be attentive to their needs. Show interest in their progress as well as help set them goals. Understand that stress and anxiety needs to be addressed as something important and skills to move pass this are needed. Tutors should not and can not ever give up on a learner. I have a solid understanding of…

Inside HoughtonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Marley revised area of sectors and surface area from Chapter 7, working through practice questions to consolidate these measurement skills.

Year 9 student Emily focused on algebraic expansion and factorisation, as well as tackling linear equations by drawing graphs and solving for variables.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Jack worked on simplifying surds and applying the null factor law in algebraic factorisation, using a mix of written exercises and calculator checks to reinforce his understanding.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student struggled with entering equations into a scientific calculator, leading to confusion during multi-step problems; as the tutor noted, "he wasn't comfortable prioritizing which formulas to use first."

In Year 9 algebra, skipping written working led to errors—one student put all calculations straight into the calculator and missed sign issues.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student lost confidence after making subtraction mistakes and hesitated to try challenging area questions.

In primary, untidy layout when solving sums meant answers were hard to check or correct later, slowing revision before tests and leaving gaps from earlier chapters unresolved.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Houghton recently noticed a big shift with one high school student who had previously guessed answers during algebra lessons—this week, he started asking for help when stuck and then explained the steps back himself after clarification.

Another high schooler showed new independence by checking her own mistakes on expansion questions: after two corrections, she redid them all without prompting and got every answer right.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who used to mix up perimeter formulas for circles is now reliably applying π = 3.14 on her own and solves related problems accurately.
