Tutor St Peters, SA
As a tutor, I believe every student is different and has their own way of learning. 1) Firstly, we should understand their learning pattern and then personalize our way of teaching. 2) Secondly, a tutor should ensure the student's attention towards the lesson. 3) Thirdly, a tutor should be patient and a good listener allowing the student…

A good tutor takes an interest in her student, wants the best for her student, and seeks every possible avenue to support the student to develop in themselves and in the subject being focused upon. An excellent tutor ultimately makes herself unnecessary! I am clear, honest, patient and can be direct. I take an interest in each person, and seek to…

I think the tutor needs to make the student as comfortable as possible, with themselves and the learning process. A tutor needs to be approachable and encouraging, to ensure that the student is able to open up, allowing them to communicate the particular difficulties they are experiencing in their learning. A tutor should also aim to identify and…

I think being a good listener and being patient are the most important things a tutor can do for the students.

Even with basic jobs like Data Entry I could perform well because I am good with numbers. My ability with numbers…

In my opinion, it's most important to help students to understand basic concepts and theories when tutoring them. With these knowledge, students will have confidence to overcome problems and hardness in Maths by themselves. For the past two years, I have tutored several students in Physics and Maths, especially Math Methods year 11 and 12.…

A student approaches a tutor outside school just so they can understand the subject in a better way.

As a tutor, I am responsible enough to…

A vital aspect of tutoring is being non-judgemental. it is important for a tutor to make the student feel comfortable to share if they do not understand something or are struggling. If a student feels as if they will be judged or considered inadequate they are less likely to come to tutor’s for help. Building a strong relationship is extremely…

Inside St PetersTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Sarah worked through solving linear equations and then practiced using indices in algebraic expressions.

Year 10 student Jack focused on understanding the unit circle for trigonometry, as well as reviewing his recent exam questions together for clarity.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Emily explored exponential graphs and tackled problems involving surds and powers, including expanding algebraic expressions step by step.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student often struggled to translate worded problems into algebraic equations, needing repeated reminders to "write out every step of the equation." This led to confusion between addition and multiplication when working with formulas.

In a senior Maths Methods session, one student hesitated to start multi-part questions without prompts, which slowed progress on complex topics like trigonometric equations. As noted by a tutor: "He got tangled in his thoughts even though he knew the answer."

For a Year 4 learner, difficulties organizing materials meant lesson time was spent searching for past problems instead of consolidating new concepts.

Recent Achievements

One St Peters tutor noticed a Year 9 student who, after initially getting most of his homework fractions wrong, was able to solve them accurately in-session and even tackled a bonus question with barely any help—something he'd struggled with before.

In a recent high school session, another student who used to skip over explaining his reasoning is now confidently talking through probability questions step by step, making fewer mistakes along the way.

Meanwhile, during a Year 4 lesson, a student eager to try multiplication exercises stopped relying on her times tables chart and got most answers correct on her own.

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 Walkerville Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like East Adelaide School.
