Physics Tutor Carey Gully, SA
The roll of a physics tutor is two-fold. Firstly, to help students understand the material they are working with. There are many ways to go about this, but one of the most important roles of a tutor is to be able to bring intuition to the abstract. This in addition to introducing effective methods for solving problems. The second key roll is…

I think that an important thing for a physics tutor to do is to be available, even if it be through technology or in person. As a student, I understand that sometimes it may just be a singular question that gets you down, or in other cases an entire unit. Hence, being able to support all circumstances is imperative. Another important factor is…

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…

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…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is ensure they understand what they are doing. As a result it is crucial for a tutor to prepare the correct material for the student. It is crucial that a tutor guides the student rather than just helping them get their homework done. Teach a man to fish and he has food for the rest of his…

Physics 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 BalhannahTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Sophie practised multiplication with large numbers, reviewed times tables, and started working on equivalent fractions using visual aids.

For Year 9, Liam focused on solving trigonometric equations using SOH CAH TOA and tackled composite area problems involving triangles and irregular shapes.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Sam worked through applications of integration—identifying antiderivatives from integrands—and explored questions about discrete random variables in probability contexts.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student tackling rational functions hesitated to attempt problems without first reviewing textbook examples, showing reliance on worked solutions instead of trusting their understanding—"Try solving the problems in the textbook without looking at the examples first," one tutor urged.

In Year 10 algebra, messy and convoluted solution layouts occasionally made it difficult for him to identify errors or communicate reasoning clearly, sometimes leading to confusion mid-question.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner's confidence dips after setbacks; when answers don't come easily, focus wavers and silly responses follow. After sports day fatigue, she struggled to stay engaged and needed frequent redirection just to remain on task.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Balhannah recently noticed a Year 11 student who, after struggling with complex algebraic problems last week, was able to independently recall the necessary techniques and solve tougher questions without prompts.

Another high school student has become noticeably faster and more accurate during timed practice sessions—where he once hesitated over complex breakdowns, he now approaches them with new efficiency and self-assurance.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who previously guessed at times tables began openly using tools like her fingers and past work for support; she now confidently fills out multiplication charts on her own.

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 Woodside District Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Oakbank School.
