Teaching students why things are the way they are rather than just telling them they exist. This way, students will understand the concepts for the long term rather than just rote learning them. I am a really good communicator and friendly by nature. This will allow me to explain hard concepts in a simple manner which can be understood by…

I believe support and encouragement are the most important elements that me as a tutor can help my students. Some students do not like to be pushed, and they need time for themselves as well, so supporting and encouraging them will direct them towards success. Some other students may experience difficulties in study (do not get a good result), so…

One of the most important things I have realised over helping my friends in year 12 would be to walk through the question and not actually doing the question for the student. Sure you could do the question for them and they could get full marks for an assignment or whatever, but they would not understand the fundamentals lying behind the question…

A student will need a tutor because he/she couldn't understand what was being taught in class. The best thing for a tutor to do is focus on the parts that the student failed to understand and strengthen their understanding in those areas. Anybody's hold on Science is only as good as their understanding of the basics. So, it is best to focus on the…

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.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I thought you might be pleased to hear our daughter, Arizona, is very, very happy with Lawrence's tutoring. It has been a meaningful development for her, albeit there is a great deal of fundamental work to do to bring her up to where she really needs to be. Thank you for your support with this.

Just a short note to let you know we will be finishing off with Alex today, as Penelope sits her HSC maths paper tomorrow. He has been a terrific help and I would be thrilled to recommend him if you need any references.

All is well. We agree it can take some time to settle in, but having Meg has already improved the children's routine and helped up with homework. The plan is to increase the time that she comes to 1 and a half hours. We are looking at then continuing that through next year.

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.
