Science Tutor Torrensville, SA
I believe there are never bad students. It is the responsibility of the teacher to understand/identify the strength of the students and help them build on it. A teacher can have great influence on students life. The more positive and encouraging the teacher is, more successful and confident the student will become. Students look up to their…

Science Tutor Prospect, SA
I believe the most important characteristic a tutor can have that would be best for a student is trust. If a student is able to trust my abilities and my teaching, I think this allows many benefits to the development and improvement of their learning. This includes them being able to open up to me more about questions or even other…

Chloe is lovely and my daughter felt comfortable with her from day one. She has done a lot of preparation in her own time too, providing many examples for Chanelle which I did not expect.

Inside Semaphore ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Maddison discussed her struggles with division, fractions, and algebra, and set a goal to improve her grades this year.

Year 10 student worked on expanding and factorising expressions, using practice questions to build confidence.

A Year 11 student focused on calculus by sketching first and second derivatives, clarifying challenging concepts from previous lessons.

Recent Challenges

Several students across Years 3–12 showed organization and process obstacles that impacted progress.

In Year 8, one student was unable to complete homework after misplacing her question sheet; "she lost her questions," noted the tutor, which led to extra time spent catching up in-session instead of extending skills.

A senior student (Year 11) forgot about an upcoming quiz entirely, missing a valuable chance for targeted revision.

Another high schooler frequently relied on mental calculations for circle problems but avoided writing steps—"too much mental maths," observed the tutor—resulting in confusion when signs or sectors were missed mid-problem.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Semaphore Park recently saw a Year 9 student shift from guessing to asking for help when stuck on trigonometry problems—she now talks through her steps aloud and checks her work, which wasn't happening before.

In Year 11, another student began reviewing past quiz mistakes without prompting and now actively requests returned tests to target weak spots.

Meanwhile, one younger primary student who'd struggled with spelling has started bringing homework every week and just achieved her first perfect score on a spelling test after connecting sounds to words during lessons.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Georgia is happy with Kelvin. She is very shy and so it is great that she feels comfortable with him.

Everything is going well with Dexter. Jordana gets on really well with her, and finds Dexter explains things very clearly, and has been a great help already with her understanding of Maths.

Jakob and Cara have a great working relationship and cover alot of content in each session. Cara's confidence and maths skills have grown considerably since commencing tutoring.

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 West Lakes Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Portside Christian College.
