Chinese Tutor Urrbrae, SA
As a tutor, the most important thing is to "preach". Tutors who don't know how to "preach" often only focus on academic matters, which can easily lead to intensified conflicts between teachers and students. The premise of "preaching" is to establish a harmonious teacher-student relationship. I think there are three key points, that is, to be more…

Chinese Tutor Rostrevor, SA
To help students understand what they can do or what options they have when they have questions or problems is important. Exclusively giving answers and solutions doesn't help students think critically and understand clearly. Instead, allowing students to figure out what they should do or comprehend certain ideas deeply would be something…

Inside SummertownTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 10 student Alyssia focused on chemistry topics including titration calculations using molar ratios and balancing redox equations in preparation for her exam.
In Year 9, Jack worked through factorisation of polynomials and practised graphing linear equations, paying attention to identifying gradients and intercepts.
Meanwhile, a Year 8 student spent the session consolidating understanding of Pythagoras' theorem by tackling both simple questions and test-style revision problems.
Recent Challenges
A Year 8 student struggled to explain reasoning behind answers in maths, with a tutor noting, "Needs to explain his reasoning behind answers more," leading to incomplete marks even when the solution was correct.
In Year 10 algebra, skipping clear working steps caused confusion and made it harder to find small sign errors—especially under test conditions.
A senior chemistry student relied heavily on set equations instead of applying concepts independently, so adapting to unfamiliar questions became difficult.
Meanwhile, a Year 4 student's handwriting issues—such as inconsistent use of capital letters—made written work hard for both themselves and others to follow during class activities.
Recent Achievements
One Summertown tutor noticed a Year 11 student who had always lost marks to small algebra mistakes start double-checking his work during practice tests—he now catches most errors before moving on, which hadn't happened in previous sessions.
A Year 9 student who used to stay quiet when confused has begun asking clear, specific questions about fractions and index laws, showing real initiative to fill knowledge gaps rather than waiting for prompts.
Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner, after weeks of reminders, managed to add and subtract mixed numbers independently with only minimal guidance needed this time.
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 Uraidla Primary School.
