I think that the most important things that a tutor should have when teaching students is to dedicate as much Time as possible to the student in order to understand the tasks they are required to do. Patience is also another important thing to have as things take time. Dedication, not giving up on the student, everyone learns at their own…

Psychology Tutor Largs Bay, SA
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to empower the individual to believe they can do it. This requires inspiring growth and motivation, as you cannot force someone to learn but only encourage one to try their best. To me, a student's best is always something to be celebrated and from here, I provide support and aid when the…

Psychology Tutor Gillman, SA
As someone who studied Psychology for years, I can say that I did so because I had an excellent teacher for the subject in high school. My English teacher was also very nurturing despite my poor performance and that was an important experience for me. That encapsulates what I think is one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student:…

Inside New PortTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 Maddison discussed her challenges with fractions, division, and algebra, then mapped out a plan to improve by taking better notes and seeking returned assessments.

For Year 10 topics, Sarah focused on mastering indices through reviewing quiz errors and practiced applying the gradient formula to graphs.

Meanwhile, Year 8 Daniel consolidated his understanding of multiplication and division, then tackled coordinate geometry problems involving points on a graph and the use of the gradient formula.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student arrived without her homework or word list, which meant spelling practice could not happen as planned.

In Year 11 Maths Methods, one student admitted to "not having practised any of the work she was taught this week," resulting in confusion during revision for an upcoming test.

Another Year 9 student struggled to locate completed homework, so much of the session was spent redoing those tasks rather than moving forward.

One senior student relied heavily on mental maths in circle problems—she needs to learn to write out each step as she goes—which led to unnecessary errors and lost time.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in New Port noticed a Year 9 student has started taking real initiative, now regularly asking her teacher for test feedback and attempting all assigned homework without reminders—this shift from passively waiting to actively seeking improvement is new for her.

In Year 11 maths, one student who used to rush through problems is now pausing to double-check steps and talks out loud as she works, helping catch mistakes before they happen.

Meanwhile, Esther in Year 3 recently moved up four reading levels and finished a much longer book than usual during her session.

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 West Lakes Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Portside Christian College.
