Modern History Tutor Andrews Farm, SA
The most important things a tutor can do are build the student’s confidence, provide personalised support, and create a safe environment for learning. A good tutor doesn’t just teach content they empower the student to become a more independent and motivated learner. My strengths as a tutor include patience, clear communication, and…

Modern History Tutor Lewiston, SA
I think the most important things a tutor can do is a) be consistent and persistent - constantly show up, be willing to explain things 100 times if that's what is needed. The student needs to have faith in you. And b) build confidence - tutoring isn't a short term option, by teaching them the skills of how to attack problems they don't understand,…

Inside VirginiaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Archie worked on simplifying ratios and strengthening times tables knowledge.

Year 8 Amelia focused on finding the area of kites, diamonds, and irregular shapes, as well as revising perimeter and area concepts using classwork examples.

Meanwhile, Year 9 Suhana practised trigonometry by calculating missing triangle sides and reviewed key topics such as surface area, volume, and Pythagoras' theorem in preparation for an upcoming assessment.

Recent Challenges

In a recent Year 10 session, one student hesitated to talk through their problem-solving steps in maths, often defaulting to "I don't know" when faced with fraction addition ("encourage her to talk through her thinking process").

For a Year 8 biology lesson, the absence of key materials like the test and textbook meant essential review couldn't happen—momentum was lost before the work began.

Meanwhile, a senior student preparing for exams sometimes forgot to bring required resources or background notes; as a result, valuable lesson time shifted from tackling challenging content to scrambling for basics.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Virginia noticed a Year 9 student who used to rush through maths problems now routinely checks her work for errors and fixes them herself, something she avoided before.

In another high school session, a student tackling Pythagoras' theorem was able to solve composite shape questions without any prompts and talked through each step out loud—a shift from previous lessons where he waited for guidance.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who previously panicked at multi-step multiplication tasks now calmly breaks them into chunks and finishes skip counting exercises on her own.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Thank you for the follow up. Sinan is working out fine. He has connected with Matthew well. Matthew has indicated that Sinan is explaining some of the mathematical concepts better than what his teacher is explaining, which is a good start. Hopefully this will translate into a better maths grade.

Thank you for your e-mail.  I have spoken to Wen from the beginning about how he finds the tutoring with Charles.  Wen advised that he is happy with Charles as Charles is very kind and very understanding tutor. Wen said Charles communicate with ease and that makes it easier for Wen to understand.  Wen said he likes that Charles teaches him the faster and straight forward methods as it is less confusing.  Wen said he has been attempting harder questions with Charles which in turn gives him more confidence to attempt them.

We are very happy with Harriet , thanks. Mikayla has found it very easy to relate to her , and Harriet is always approachable and responsive. As it has only been a couple of weeks and is now school holidays , we haven't got any school results to go on however I am sure we will start to see results in this area. We had a negative experience with tutoring in the past (different organisation) , so we were reluctant to go down this path again , however I think we will have success with Harriet.

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 Two Wells Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Virginia Primary School.
