Modern History Tutor Blakiston, SA
I believe a tutor should foster a positive learning environment for a student, in which the student feels comfortable discussing any issues they are having with the tutor. I feel that as a tutor, your core responsibility is to place the needs of the child first, and do whatever you can to fulfill these needs, even if it does involve putting in…

Local Reviews

Andrew is amazing. My was so anxious about having a tutor and Andrew quickly quashed those feelings in the first 5 minutes of meeting my son. He immediately made him feel comfortable and is teaching my son simple and effective ways of understanding his maths. I would highly recommend Andrew, especially to those who are lacking confidence.

Inside NairneTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Sydney focused on multiplication and division fluency using targeted worksheets, then built her understanding of fraction equivalence and representation.

Year 10 student Sophie tackled algebraic manipulation and solving trigonometric equations, practicing both skills with step-by-step examples.

For Year 12, James worked on integrating functions with unknown limits of integration and explored how to solve definite integral problems by identifying antiderivatives and relating them back to real-world contexts.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student tackling calculus and rational functions often relied on worked examples, hesitating to attempt textbook problems without first consulting solutions—"Try solving the problems in the textbook without looking at the examples first," a tutor noted. This meant test scenarios felt unfamiliar and slowed creative problem-solving.

In Year 9 algebra, another student's layout became convoluted during multi-step questions, with skipped steps leading to confusion when checking answers under time pressure.

For a Year 4 learner, times tables recall was slow; each sum required calculation rather than quick memory retrieval, stretching out simple tasks during lessons.

Recent Achievements

A Nairne tutoring session saw a Year 11 student move from hesitating over integration to tackling complex problems more independently—she started her exam revision early and now manipulates integrals with much less prompting than before.

Meanwhile, a Year 9 student who previously struggled with breaking down multi-step algebraic questions is now confidently applying feedback and working through tougher examples on his own, showing real initiative during lessons.

At the primary level, one tutor noticed a noticeable change in a Year 4 student: she used to guess when unsure about times tables but now openly asks for help and checks her answers against previous work.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Oliver is engaged with his lesson and we are happy with her as Rouyan is always punctual.

Christopher has a very great communication style and is fun and he made the lesson engaging and also challenging.

Washim has been great. Josephine received C/D marks last semester for Maths and has achieved an A- and a B+ for her most recent exams this term so her time with Washim has been very helpful.

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 Mount Barker Community Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Nairne School - Preschool and Primary.
