I think that some tutors get caught up in focusing solely on the work in front of them and miss out on teaching younger students about the life in front of them. Instead of doing more work, tutors should provide organisation tips and possible strategies they can put in place to improve the quality of their work. Also, forming close relationships…

Science Tutor Stirling, SA
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is be able to teach them skills that they can use in their studies after they are finished with a tutor. Obviously it is a tutors job to teach them the task at hand, but I believe a great tutor is able to teach the student skills that will allow them to do better in school without the…

To help students identify areas of growth which are preventing them from achieving their best. To aid in the development of certain skills which can be applied to the students work. To assist students to understand concepts, ideas and processes which they are struggling with. Most importantly, I seek to build on the students confidence in their…

Science Tutor Mount Barker, SA
I would say one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to show them the compassion and support they need to gain self-confidence and realise their full potential. In my previous tutoring groups, I would often have students who felt like they would never be good academically, and this was simply not true. All that had happened…

Inside MylorTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 Sophie practised converting between mixed numbers and improper fractions, as well as simplifying fractions using visual aids.

In Year 9, Jay worked through algebraic factorisation and completed graphing exercises with linear equations.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Josh focused on revising logarithms for an upcoming test and also tackled questions involving the rearrangement of algebraic expressions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 algebra, skipping steps when solving equations—"he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors"—meant extra time was spent tracking down small mistakes rather than progressing.

For a Year 9 geometry test, reasoning was often left unwritten; the tutor noted missed marks for not explaining answers clearly.

In Year 7, one student rushed through multi-step worded questions and "jumped to an answer without unpacking what was being asked," leading to avoidable errors and frustration.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student's fatigue during lessons made it hard to focus long enough to complete homework or engage with new material.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Mylor recently noticed a Year 10 student, after previously losing marks to avoidable errors, now slowing down and double-checking his working during practice tests—he caught all but one of his usual mistakes this time.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student who used to guess at algebra questions is starting to pause and ask clarifying questions before answering, showing new initiative.

In primary sessions, Jay has gone from relying on prompts for times tables to confidently filling out entire rows on his own and self-correcting when answers don't match expectations.

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