Ancient History Tutor Richmond, SA
To actually teach them, not just give answers or aid them in 'rope learning' I am fantatic with children, having experieince by being a member of the Silver Blades Figure skating club and previous work, where I was a manager of two people, one 15 and another…

Ancient History Tutor Prospect, SA
I consider some of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to be able to understand where the point of view of where the student is coming from and what specifically they may require for their learning, to be able to navigate problems, and ultimately to help the student develop their own academic skills and confidence. As such…

Isabella has been a wonderful support to our daughter. Her passion, dedication in supporting and encouraging her throughout the last year has been a massive benefit in Elly's success. I thoroughly recommend Isabella as she is very personable, diligent and professional in every way.

Inside TennysonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Tom focused on solving linear equations and exploring properties of linear graphs, using practice questions to consolidate understanding.

In Year 9, Sophie worked through trigonometry problems involving finding unknown sides and angles in triangles as well as applying bearings in real-world scenarios.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Liam reviewed differential calculus concepts with a focus on rules for differentiation and tackled binomial expansion and theorem questions to prepare for upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student relied on mental calculation for algebra, skipping written steps—"he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors." This meant small mistakes were harder to spot and correct.

In Year 11, one student hesitated when choosing between Bernoulli and Binomial distributions; he only grew confident after working through several examples, highlighting the need to practice identifying question types under exam conditions.

Meanwhile, a Year 9 student was confused by worded problems in geometry, needing support to extract key information before attempting solutions.

When units weren't double-checked in physics calculations (Year 10), answers lost marks despite solid method.

Recent Achievements

A Tennyson tutor recently noticed a Year 11 student who, after struggling with calculus investigations, began asking targeted questions about each confusing step and could then clearly explain all the differentiation methods used.

In Year 9, another student who used to stay quiet when stuck on algebra now openly identifies which parts confuse him and talks through his problem-solving process aloud—something he avoided before.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student made real progress by remembering area formulas for different shapes using new memory cues and independently applying these during unit conversion activities without prompting.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

that Harry would get to the stage where he could do it on his own. I have been very impressed with the results he has been getting and they have far exceeded my expectations so the tutoring has been an outstanding success. I don't want to finish it though just put it on hold while we work on physics for a term. I hope that is ok with you and David.

We have been impressed by Callum's diligent approach to helping Georgina, his wit and time flexibility have made things as easy as possible for her. With warm regards.

Just wanted to drop you a line to let you know how happy we have been with Sigrid  who has now had 4 sessions with our son, Andreas. She is a very caring and enthusiastic young lady who, over a short period of time, has built a lovely rapport with Andreas. In turn, Andreas feels very comfortable with her and looks forward to the sessions. Sigrid's competence and the commitment she displays are commendable and have resulted in a noticeable improvement in Andreas's confidence and his motivation towards maths. Many thanks for sending her our way.

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 Henley Beach Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Seaton High School.
