English Tutor Eden Hills, SA
I believe that tutors must have a good attitude and genuinely enjoy the concepts and the subject. Without this, the student will most likely find the tutoring bland and boring, which would reduce their engagement and their overall performance and knowledge in the subject. My experience as a tennis coach has shown me how different students learn at…

A tutor can improve one's overall understand of the subject, not just a specific understanding about a material. That is important because it is building the bigger picture of each subject in the long term. I am flexible in my teaching method, and I am able to adjust to each student depending on what they…

I consider the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to provide encouragement and support, and to teach skills for problem solving, learning, and managing workloads. Subject-specific knowledge and skills are of course extremely important, but developing the confidence to try (and learn from mistakes) and the transferable skills…

A tutor can always support or help his/ her students, could take student's weakness in a positive way. A tutor can analyse the student's capabilities in a detailed manner which is very helpful to figure out the areas that need more focus and attention.

Being able to teach a student enough material for them to be able to pass the class, that is what you are being paid to do. There are also many ineffible qualities that will set apart a good tutor from a great one. Such qualities include, understanding the student, being supportive of them and their emotions and ensuring the student is effectively…

Confidence is the most important thing a tutor can bring to a student struggling with English.

A tutor MUST make the student comfortable with their learning by building a friendship with them, so that they always want to return to EZY Math Tutoring.

Local Reviews

Marysa has been tutoring my 17 year old son for 1 year, and now also using her for tutoring my 15 year old daughter. Rapport was quickly established between each of them, which is not difficult due to Marysa's maturity, knowledge, respect, and her unwavering support to each child. Every single lesson is met with a bubbly, up beat, and smiling tutor. The advancement in my children's skills, knowledge, and confidence is immeasurable. After a difficult start to finding the correct fit with a tutor, we have been provided a jewel with Marysa.

Inside BrightonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ella revised multiples of 3 and practiced area and perimeter calculations for both regular and irregular shapes.

Year 6 student Lucas worked on comparing decimal numbers to three places, explored improper fractions versus mixed numbers, and practiced expressing decimals as fractions using visual aids.

Meanwhile, Year 7 student Max tackled NAPLAN numeracy practice questions with calculator use, focusing on relationships between fractions, decimals, and percentages alongside key fraction terminology and equivalence.

Recent Challenges

In Year 5 maths, one student repeatedly skipped labeling headings on place value boards ("hundredths to Hundred Thousands"), making it difficult to organize decimal work.

During a Year 8 algebra session, a notebook was left at home—so examples were jotted on loose scraps and later misplaced.

In English (Year 7), over-erasing and correcting narrative drafts led to lost ideas and slower progress; as noted: "She erased sentences so often her story stalled mid-way."

For Year 11 problem-solving, working only familiar fraction drills meant multi-step worded questions remained unsolved—confidence dropped after repeated setbacks in class discussions.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Brighton noted that Brooke, a high school student, moved from relying on instructions to independently constructing triangles using a compass and reasoning through the process herself.

In another session, Prajna (Year 8) initially hesitated with index notation but quickly picked up the concept and solved calculator-based problems without prompting.

Meanwhile, Jye in Year 5 shifted from rushing homework to taking time for self-correction—he now pauses to re-read texts and uses decoding strategies when faced with unfamiliar words. Last week, he completed all spelling activities and set out his decimal calculations more clearly than before.

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 Brighton Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Brighton Primary School.
