Economics Tutor Eastwood, SA
Other than imparting the lessons in school, I think being able to empathize with the students is key in effective teaching. As a matter of strategy, what I will do is to meet them where they are academically, then prepare a plan and implement it to be able to meet our goal(s). I have the ability to relate with young kids well. Raising three…

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…

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…

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…

Inside Sefton ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student James worked through the rules of index laws, focusing on expanding and simplifying algebraic expressions with brackets and exponents.

A Year 9 student explored coordinate geometry by calculating gradients, midpoints, and lengths of line segments, while also practicing multiplication and division using index laws in algebra.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student tackled Pythagoras' theorem and trigonometry problems relevant to their classwork, applying these concepts to solve real-world worded questions.

Recent Challenges

Several process obstacles were noted across different year levels.

In Year 5, Molly repeatedly did not complete her assigned maths homework and was unable to show progress on a project between sessions, which meant she missed chances to reinforce skills like multiplication and data analysis. As one tutor observed, "Molly did not do any work after we finished the previous lesson and did not even appear to have added anything to the document."

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student struggled with organizing working for algebraic problems; his cluttered layout made it difficult to find sign errors when reviewing solutions.

During revision for calculus in Year 12, anxiety about timing led him to skip checking steps—this resulted in repeated mistakes during induction proofs and left him frustrated by small but costly errors.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Sefton Park noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who used to struggle with algebra—he now completes assigned tasks efficiently and even rearranges equations without help, something he couldn't do before.

Another win came from a senior student who picked up calculus rapidly; she differentiated surds and worked through logarithms with minimal prompting, showing initiative by asking for tougher problems mid-session.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who was hesitant about multiplication last term now remembers her times tables and volunteers answers during lessons, finishing all ten practice questions correctly this week.

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 Our Lady of the Sacred Heart College.
