Ancient History Tutor Osborne, SA
Probably one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to provide them with the support and confidence when approaching a subject or concept that they struggle with. Allowing the students to get to the point where they may no longer struggle in that subject. One of my major strengths as a tutor would probably have to be my…

Inspire. Not every child enjoys learning the way we need to in society so a teachers and tutors, we need to be able to be creative enough for those individual students who need more guidance. For example I have had a year 3 student who hated english and nearly every subject at school, however he really enjoyed robots. As we were learning…

My son has struggled for a while with Maths methods. Shamit has done wonders for my sons confidence and problem solving ability. Already we have seen C grades move to B+ grades.

Inside TaperooTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Sienna focused on applying integration to kinematics, specifically integrating velocity functions to find displacement and solving definite integral problems involving motion graphs.

Year 12 student Ava worked through exam-style questions on continuous probability distributions, including checking the validity of probability density functions and finding medians using integrals.

Meanwhile, Year 10 Maddison reviewed indices and scientific notation for her upcoming semester exam, with extra support identifying common errors in past quiz answers and clarifying Pythagoras' theorem using targeted practice questions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student had trouble identifying which differentiation rules to use in calculus, sometimes "talking out loud through problems" but hesitating to break complex questions into simpler steps.

For a Year 10 student, missed homework and confusion about upcoming quiz dates meant revision was reactive rather than planned—one tutor noted, "she wasn't aware they had a quiz the following day."

In Year 3 spelling, erasing and rewriting words repeatedly slowed progress as perfectionism set in; fitting longer words into boxes became a struggle. These habits left less time for deeper learning or confidence-building practice during sessions.

Recent Achievements

One Taperoo tutor noticed a Year 12 student who used to rush through differentiation now taking extra time to check if rules actually apply, catching past mistakes before moving on.

In Year 10 maths, Sienna came prepared with questions from her textbook and, for the first time, worked through every problem independently before asking for help—she even proudly showed off her improved test mark.

Meanwhile, Esther in Year 3 brought all her homework unprompted and moved up four levels in reading, tackling longer books during sessions after struggling to finish shorter ones just weeks ago.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Maddie worked very well with my son, making it as enjoyable as possible for him.

Shengyang is an awesome tutor. He explains the methods really well and makes sure i understand everything before i proceed to the next question. I have improved in my maths since he has been tutoring me.

Oliver is a lovely young man, he and Cameron are working well together. He seems to be a bit more confident already.

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 Semaphore Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Ocean View P-12 College.
