Economics Tutor Glenside, SA
I believe it is important to understand the student's weaknesses and strengths before starting to teach them. I have come across a common problem with students, which is that they often jump straight into trying to solve a problem without fully understanding the theory/basics first. Hence, I try to first help them understand the basics then go…

The most important thing is to develop the students confidence and give them the ability to take on problems on their own later down the track. I feel that this is the main key to success as without this ability the student will give up half way. Empowerment and showing them that it isn't as hard as what they think is crucial. I am a very patient…

Economics Tutor Frewville, SA
For me, the important thing that I can do for my students is helping them to build confidence. I guess most students tend to hire tutors not because they are not good at the subject somehow, but because they lack confidence and interest in it. Therefore, what I can do is to activate their interests and build up confidence in my way. There are…

A tutor needs to always be supportive. A student needs a tutor because (s)he wants help. Sometimes not getting a good result can be frustrating for them. A tutor needs to make sure that the students are motivated to improve. I'm good at understanding why the students are stuck, whether it is not knowing how to apply a formula or weak algebraic…

The goal of tutoring should be to empower students and thus the primary focus of tuition should be to develop confidence and independence rather than reliance. For this reason, I believe the most important component of tutoring is not working through content, but reflecting and future planning to ensure the student believes they have the skills…

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.…

Inside NailsworthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Sophie practised division and focused on mastering the 8 times tables, with some attention given to properties of triangles.

Year 7 student Daniel explored index laws by working through multiplication and division of exponents, then moved on to understanding scientific notation in context.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Alex tackled trigonometry problems involving bearings and also worked through probability questions using tree diagrams for visual support.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student repeatedly arrived without having completed assigned homework, including multiplication revision and a maths assignment—one tutor noted, "she could not provide a valid excuse." This led to uncertainty in applying exponent logic and negative indices on tests.

In Year 5, one student avoided practising times tables outside sessions; when tested, she defaulted to finger-counting and hesitated after each step, asking if answers were correct.

A senior secondary student relied heavily on her graphic calculator for linear equations but struggled when asked to interpret or lay out solutions by hand, which masked errors until review time.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Nailsworth recently noticed a Year 10 student who used to struggle with abstract algebra now choosing more challenging textbook questions on her own and asking for clarification only after attempting them first.

Another high schooler, previously hesitant about calculus, started recognising where to use logarithm laws to solve derivative problems without prompting.

Meanwhile, a younger student who once relied heavily on times tables charts decided to tackle multiplication exercises independently this week, getting most answers right and showing real eagerness to try before checking her work.

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 Prospect Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Sports College South Australia - North Adelaide Football Club.
