Everyone is unique- in a child that struggles to solve basic equations lies an elite athlete, a child failing in chemistry may turn out to be the next Gordon Ramsey or that one differently abled child maybe the world’s greatest business tycoon! As such, I believe that it is important to address skills beyond the traditional knowledge of…

The most important thing a tutor can do for his student is give the student complete and accurate understanding of the subject and be determined to make the student understand the concept in various ways until he does. I believe in understanding a concept rather than learning by rote and I ensure that my pupil follows the same. I have a good…

As a result, I am aware of the significance of a suitable study method. Other than teaching the content of the textbook, I would be more than happy to assist students in…

The tutor should just not stick to the knowledge that is available in the textbooks but should make learning a fun experience for the students by giving relevant examples . Learning becomes more easier when the students are involved in the process. The session must be interactive. I am a active listener and communicator. I feel that every student…

Listen to the students need and understand them as a learner what the goals they strive for. Everyone learns differently and no one is looking for the same experience or results from a class. It is important for a tutor to understand and apply this in their teachings. My ability to view a concept in a variety of ways. When a student doesn't…

The important thing is to develop the student's ability to independently study. It is like that proverb 'Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day.

One of the most important roles of a tutor is to provide students with a framework of learning techniques and methods that will remain applicable in future areas of study. A tutor should also foster a love or appreciation of learning through active engagement with their pupils; this is by far the most important thing a tutor can do for a student.…

a tutor first needs to understand the capability of the student considering all the strengths and weakness and work on it. Only just transforming knowledge will not help the child grow but instead develop a liking for that particular subject will make that child understand it more easily. Temporary teaching does't work in this teaching field.…

Local Reviews

My daughter has only had a few sessions with her wonderful tutor and shown improvements already. Her tutor Shan, is kind, patient and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this service.
Karen Montgomery, Woodville South

Inside Woodville SouthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Mia practised expanding and factorising algebraic expressions, then applied these skills to simplify quadratic expressions.

Year 10 student Daniel focused on trigonometric ratios—using sine, cosine, and tangent for right-angled triangles—and worked through applications involving angles of elevation and bearings.

Meanwhile, Year 5 student Sarah consolidated her understanding of time calculations alongside division and multiplication strategies using real-world word problems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student arrived at a session without having attempted the assigned factorisation questions; this led to slower progress during class, as noted: "it is important to do more questions prior to the class to have a more productive session."

In Year 10 algebra, skipping written steps—preferring mental calculation—caused confusion with brackets and negatives, which muddled longer problems.

A senior student in trigonometry left diagrams incomplete, which made angle application tasks harder than needed.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student's revision relied only on familiar multiplication facts rather than tackling new or challenging types, limiting retention and confidence when new topics appeared.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Woodville South recently noticed a Year 9 student, who used to rush through answers and make avoidable errors, is now talking through each problem out loud and carefully double-checking her steps—she even asked the tutor to check only if she was really stuck.

In a senior session, another student who previously struggled with rationalising expressions was able to simplify complex surds independently after practicing just a few examples.

Meanwhile, one younger learner showed new independence by reading times from an analogue clock on her own, then drawing those times without needing any hints.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I would like to thank you for providing a wonderful service to us.  We were recommended to you by a friend of my daughters and this being the first time we had sought a tutor, we weren't really sure what to do or how to go about it.  You made the whole process simple and easy for us.  Even though the initial tutor didn't relate to my daughter, there was no problem with us changing to another tutor.  This wonderful young woman was just the right person for my daughter.  They both understood each other and my daughter approached her year 12 maths exam with so much more certainty and knowledge.  We won't know for a while yet, the result of the exam but my daughter feels very confident about it.

WE are very happy with Jades work with Tanisha, Tanisha is very comfortable with Jade.  Tanisha has improved with her maths so far thanks to Jades help.

I just wanted to let you know that Arielle's recent yearly Maths marks were the best she has ever had. Usually he marks are in the high 30's ( the test is out of 60) but this time she scored 50 out of 60! Arielle was thrilled and I know this has really boosted her confidence regarding her Maths abilities as she always felt Maths was too hard. I have noticed a definite change in her attitude to Maths tutoring with Ivan. She no longer dreads the session and is able to remain focused and attentive the whole time. This has given her the confidence to begin her new school next year with a positive attitude towards Maths.

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 Civic Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Woodville Primary School.
