Chemistry Tutor Kilkenny, SA
When tutoring I believe you should teach strategies and ways to approach problems or questions as opposed to just helping to get the answer. It is important as a tutor to get to know the student, to reassure them that needing help is in no way embarrassing or their fault. I think its important to make learning enjoyable for both the tutor and the…

Chemistry Tutor Cavan, SA
The most important things a tutor can do for a student is helping around with the difficulties the student is facing in their curriculum. Improving on their weaknesses on the whole improves the quality of learning and makes them more viable to achieve their potential. My biggest strength is to be able to connect with students, relatively easily.…

Chemistry Tutor Seaton, SA
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is create a safe and supportive learning environment where they feel secure, understood, and never judged for not knowing something. A student should never feel stupid for asking questions or needing things explained more than once. When students feel comfortable and confident,…

Chemistry Tutor Mawson Lakes, SA
The most important thing a tutor can be for a student is a supportive guide. Being a guide allows for students to be empowered and encouraged to make their learning and understanding their own. Learning something on your own terms is way more rewarding than being told what to do. As a tutor it is my job to help navigate learning and to work as a…

Chemistry Tutor Parafield Gardens, SA
I think the most important thing a tutor can do is motivate the student and allow them to see that their goals are achievable and help them achieve them. I personally was not a very bright student in year 9/10 and I was bottom of my cohort and almost did not get to do chemistry and physics however through perseverance and hard work, I improved…

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

Thank you for finding a new tutor so fast. I just want to let you know that even the very first session with James a great success. He is very competent, explains thins very clearly. Both of my children enjoyed it.

Stella is fantastic and Alex's maths grades went from D to B with Stella so we are very grateful. I am keen for her to continue because she was doing very well with Stella.

Dorcas was brilliant. Proactive, organised with a genuine interest in Yasmin's learning. Dorcas went over and above what was required of her and for that I am very grateful. Your company has always been professional and understanding also, no complaints there whatsoever. Thank you for following up with us and perhaps another time in the future we may need your services, I wouldn't go anywhere else to find a tutor.

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.
