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's job is to cater their teaching style to fit their students so that they can be comfortable with learning. My strengths are providing students with engaging lessons and…

Software Dev Tutor Kent Town, SA
I think a tutor should be able to tell if their student understands something or not, often they don't say it outright and asking them directly might not get them to admit it. So by asking them to solve a question that indirectly uses the concept might help us figure out if they're having trouble or not. Students should also feel comfortable with…

Local Reviews

Anna and Charlie get on well so tutoring is going well.
Tania, Pooraka

Inside PoorakaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 student Alex revised differentiation from first principles and applied calculus to projectile motion, including practice with tangent equations.

Year 11 student Priya worked through kinematics questions for an upcoming test and clarified optimisation techniques using example problems.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Ethan tackled linear graphs—drawing up equations in y=mx+c form and interpreting coordinates—with extra focus on relating scenarios to graph movement.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 mathematics, one student's working was described as "messy and hard to follow," particularly when applying the midpoint formula; this made it harder to catch sign errors.

Another Year 10 learner skipped steps when converting fractions, confusing positive and negative signs—a tutor noted, "skipping some steps mentally led to mix-ups with signs."

In a primary session, a child often struggled to explain their method or thinking aloud and hesitated to attempt verbal explanations during worded problems.

Without regular revision or organized written work, misunderstandings persisted into new topics and created barriers in problem-solving moments.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Pooraka recently noticed a Year 10 student who used to guess at graph problems now setting out multi-step working clearly and explaining slope changes without prompting.

Another high schooler, after weeks of hesitating to ask for help, initiated a discussion on projectile motion during a calculus session and worked through several tricky doubts before their test.

In a primary lesson, one child who previously rushed maths worksheets slowed down this week to check each answer and fixed mistakes independently—finishing the whole set with no corrections needed from the tutor.

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 Mawson Lakes Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Pooraka Primary School.
