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 Smithfield, SA
I think that curiosity and the satisfaction of that curiosity is the most enjoyable part of learning. Whilst students have different goals for their learning the tutor has an opportunity to impact a life positively. The most important thing is to achieve the student's goal but over and above that a tutor can engender a love of learning that will…

Tutors serve a distinct role from teachers and parents, putting them in a unique position to assist learners. Personal relationships are crucial to student achievement; the more attached a student feels to his or her tutor, the more trust and respect the tutor instils in the student, both of which are necessary ingredients for effective learning.…

Samuel

Modern History Tutor Hillbank, SA
I think that a tutor must be patient and remain composed with each student. A tutor is meant to be that person whose teaching is tailored, so it requires an individualized approach, picked up and constantly adjusted as needs change and develop. I have (as told to me by all my ever-suffering associates) a 'wild' vocabulary, and for English…

Important things a tutor can do for a student is simply to believe in them and to encourage them when they start feeling disparaged. I believe I have great patience when it comes to tutoring and I can break concepts down…

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,…

Local Reviews

Michael is a fantastic tutor for my Year 11 son who has been experiencing difficulties with his Maths Methods. Michael has been very patient and has explained things really well to the point that my son has been feeling very confident with his maths progress. He will continue to have tutoring from Michael which is seeing him really improve. Michael's been amazing

Inside Macdonald ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ariana worked on identifying symmetry in shapes and began a Year 4 content quiz to check her understanding across topics.

In Year 10, Sam focused on solving linear equations in two variables using elimination and substitution methods, along with tackling word problems to build real-world application skills.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Daniel practiced trigonometry by finding missing angles and sides of triangles using the cosine rule, as well as reviewing related problems from his school workbook.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student left research project work until the last minute, which meant "the opportunity to absorb learning is limited" and notes were incomplete.

In a recent Year 10 biology/English session, key materials—like the test and The Merchant of Venice text—were forgotten, so lesson time couldn't be used effectively.

For Year 9 mathematics, skipping steps in equations ("he tended to skip steps and not explain them") led to unnoticed errors that slowed progress.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student relied heavily on tutor sessions for assignment completion rather than independent effort, missing chances to build confidence between lessons.

Recent Achievements

One high schooler, Chelsea, has begun tackling complex trigonometry problems on her own—where she once hesitated to ask questions, she now speaks up whenever something's unclear and completes most calculations independently.

Another secondary student, Sam, who previously struggled with assignment focus, took the initiative to re-engage with his Research Project by asking thoughtful interview questions and even received an A for his newspaper PowerPoint presentation.

Meanwhile, Jess in Year 3 made real progress learning new strategies for tricky times tables and started picking up on mistakes during lessons without prompting.

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 Playford Civic Centre Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Angle Vale Primary School.
