It is vital that a tutor creates a welcoming, friendly and positive atmosphere to show the student that they are willing and able to help aid them in their learning. A tutor should ensure that the student feels as though they can ask questions to clarify their understanding of content and that they have control over their own learning and can set…

It is the ability of a good tutor to find a student’s hidden potential interests and support him to pursue what he really loves to do in life. A tutor can also make the learners feel motivated and enthusiastic to face the challenges that come along. My desire to help others which can bring a difference is the one I consider as my biggest…

Be able to communicate information clearly and concisely, as well as being flexible enough to come up with different explanations for topics when a certain method isn't understood.

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to figure out plans and way to explain and allow the student to learn in a relaxed and enjoyable way.

They can help their confidence to grow in their subject, and give them a pillar of support for when that confidence has slipped as this provides a more long-lasting effect than learning a single module of a subject.

One of the main most important things a tutor can do for a student is increase their confidence with the subjects you are helping them to learn. Increasing their confidence makes it easier for them to learn and has a positive effect on their self esteem. This can also increase their motivation to learn and therefore assist in improving their study…

In my opinion, the most important role of a tutor is to not only retell information and explain answers but give students tools in studying different subjects that can be applicable to their independent study. In this way, the student can learn how to independently intake knowledge; a skill that will serve them not only in the year or subject that…

A Tutor guides the student to find the answers for themselves rather than be the font of all knowledge. The student will become self reliant. Teaching a student how to learn is the most important.

The most important things for tutors to do is to support, guide and teach a student. It is important for a tutor to help students learn life skills as well as how to do their given subject. Above all, it is crucical for a tutor to help a student help themselves. As the saying goes 'give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish, he'll…

A student that has a tutor either wants to excel in their studies, or is struggling. If the student is struggling (will know from first day by what they ask and what they say) then it means they either need to be told what the teacher has told them already or the teacher has taught it in a way they do not understand, hence a change of method is…

The most important things for a tutor is to be supportive and understanding.

My main strength in tutoring is being able to adapt my approach…

Carol, Seaford Rise

Inside Port Noarlunga SouthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Ella worked on trigonometry skills, focusing on finding missing angles and sides in triangles.

For Year 10, James practised quadratic factorisation and expansion through targeted online exercises.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Zoe tackled parabolas and circle equations, using word problems to deepen her understanding of graphing techniques.

Recent Challenges

A Year 4 student hesitated to write out full working in division problems, often defaulting to finger-counting rather than recalling multiplication facts—a habit that slowed progress on more complex sums. "She must work on showing her working out," a tutor noted after repeated omissions made it hard to pinpoint calculation slips.

In Year 10, another student's anxiety about starting assignments led to mental blanks: she would freeze and need the question reframed before moving forward.

For a Year 8 learner, overthinking answers—especially with times tables—meant she second-guessed herself aloud, sometimes changing correct responses at the last minute and missing marks.

Recent Achievements

One Port Noarlunga South tutoring session saw a high school student, Lara, shift from only occasionally asking for help to now actively seeking clarification when she's unsure, which has helped her master trigonometry and algebraic factorisation more independently.

In another case, Ciana moved from making frequent errors in simultaneous equations to completing a practice test with 100% accuracy and minimal assistance—an outcome that would have seemed out of reach just weeks ago.

Meanwhile, Nicole (Year 5) went from scoring zero on rounding pre-assessments to achieving 75% on her latest test after practicing new strategies and persisting through challenging homework.

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 Seaford Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like South Port Primary School.
