Tutor Athol Park, SA
The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to make them feel comfortable to communicate with. Communication is key for a student's success, if they don't know how to do certain things, they can ask the tutor. Sometimes the tutor does not always know the answer, but the tutor is seen as a reliable source so whichever information the…

As mentioned above, to make a student feel comfortable is really important as it makes them more confident with the material not only in that subject but universally. They become more confident as a learner and will find it easier to develop the tools to solve problems themselves more independently of others. Additionally, as a tutor, I feel like…

Tutor Findon, SA
Recognise which areas of learning a student struggles with and focus to improve these areas instead of rehearsing already understood information. It is also extremely important to encourage students to ask questions and not to be inclined to feel embarrassed. I will attempt to answer these queries to the best of my ability and seek clarification…

In school, teachers deliver lessons on a general teaching strategy, whereas the context and mindset of all the students are diverse. A tutor helps students to improve their learning by contextualizing their learning based on their learning needs, aligning with learning difficulties, and provide constant help and boosting up their confidence in…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be patient in the teaching and learning process. Being able to teach or solve a problem in more than one way is important to determine which method is the most helpful for the student, as each individual learns in their own way. I have been tutored before, so I know what it is…

I think the most important thing a tutor can give a student is confidence. However, this is not just a feel self-assurance in their learning but a confidence and self-security to be wrong. The imperative of tutoring is not to build knowledge but to create an environment for learning, this means allowing students the freedom to express their…

Personalized tutoring fills a niche that can't be filled in today's schools alone. Successful tutors build strong, personal relationships with their students. Successful tutors listen and communicate early and often with parents and teachers. I have good listening skills, and I believe to understand the emotions and problems the children face.…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is helping around with the difficulties the student is facing in their curriculum. Improving on their weaknesses on the whole improves the quality of learning and makes them more viable to achieve their potential. My biggest strength is to be able to connect with students, relatively easily.…

Local Reviews

Emerson seems like a very nice person and a great tutor. Only in a few weeks she has already helped Emmz progress with a few things she was struggling with.
Matthew, Largs Bay

Inside Largs BayTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 Maddison identified areas needing support in division, fractions, and algebra, discussing strategies for improvement and planning next steps together.

In Year 11, Sienna focused on applying integration to real-world problems and practiced interpreting motion graphs using kinematics questions.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Emily worked through differentiating logarithmic functions and integrating velocity to find displacement, reinforcing these concepts with exam-style problems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student struggled to decide between the log rule and chain rule when differentiating ln functions, needing to "talk out loud through problems" to clarify thinking.

In another case, a Year 11 student missed easy factorising by not listing all potential factors before moving on; with prompting, they could spot errors but hadn't developed the habit of checking assumptions.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student couldn't locate completed homework and spent much of the lesson redoing it instead of tackling new material. The lack of clear organization left her unprepared for extra content provided that week.

Recent Achievements

One Largs Bay tutor noted that a Year 11 student, previously rushing through differentiation problems and making avoidable mistakes, has started pausing to check forms before applying rules—resulting in far fewer errors.

In a recent session with a Year 8 student, the tutor observed her coming prepared with specific questions about graphic calculator use, something she hadn't attempted independently before.

Meanwhile, Esther in Year 3 moved up four reading levels after weeks of focused spelling and phonics work; she managed to finish the much longer book aloud without hesitation during her latest lesson.

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 Semaphore Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Largs Bay School.
