Software Dev Tutor Mawson Lakes, SA
I believe a Tutor should be able to sympathise with and understand the students' mindset, each student has their own way of learning and their own learning speed. A tutor's job is to cater their teaching style to fit their students so that they can be comfortable with learning. My strengths are providing students with engaging lessons and…

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

Mayeesha is doing a great job with tutoring Joanna. She comes in with such a great attitude to teach. We are blessed to have her.

Sarah is fabulous! Friendly knowledgeable and flexible with times to work in with my child. Very happy with how she is working with my daughter.

I am pleased to say that things are going very well with Tina so far. Tina is organised, confident and already has a good grasp of Olivia's issues and Olivia really likes having her come each week. I look forward to her continued progress.

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.
