I believe it is important to be able to pass on the knowledge I have as a tutor to my students. Another important aspect of tutoring is to be able to teach at a pace and style that caters to each individual student so that they are able to obtain the most out of the session. I find that the patience I have is a great strength as a tutor, as there…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is provide every opportunity for them to kindle their own knowledge. As Socrates said, "Education is the kindling of a flame, not the filling of a vessel." In other words, it is the tutor's job to introduce new knowledge as the base tools and then question the student to allow them to…

Legal Studies Tutor Kings Park, SA
A tutor can make a student feel accomplished while also being able to give them a safe space to mess up and fail, while still letting them know that they are valid and they are succeeding. I think that I am patient but also challenging. I prepare the students for the big things before they even realise that they are ready for the…

Legal Studies Tutor Campbelltown, SA
I think the most important thing a tutor can do is to always try to understand their student. Everyone learns differently, needs help in different ways, and faces different problems. There's no one size fits all and tutoring offers students a chance that they don't have in classrooms of thirty other students where they a learn in a way that makes…

I consider the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to ultimately inspire them in a love of learning and hopefully pass onto them capsules of knowledge which are priceless. My strengths as a tutor are to challenge the pupils to think abstractly about language and harness the true power it possesses. I love hearing the pupil's own…

A student needs to be able to think flexibly and critically, as opposed to simply memorising information by rote. Encouraging these aspects of learning can assist a student with future endeavours.

Inside BurnsideTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Armando worked on comparing fractions and decimals using number lines, as well as converting between units.

For Year 10, Ella focused on surface area and volume of three-dimensional shapes like spheres and prisms, applying formulas to practical problems.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Jay revised bivariate statistics by interpreting residual plots and working through exponential regression questions from a revision guide.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 maths, one student's working was described as "hard to follow," with cramped handwriting and inconsistent labelling—making it easy to lose track during matrix problems.

A Year 11 student left several assignment requirements unclear until the last minute; as a tutor noted, "he needs to check the task sheet closely before submitting."

Meanwhile, in Year 7 algebra, skipping written steps when simplifying expressions led to repeated errors with negatives.

For a primary learner, focus drifted quickly during longer tasks—work became untidy and mistakes crept in as attention waned near the end of each session.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Burnside noticed that a Year 10 student who used to hesitate when stuck on algebraic problems now confidently asks for help as soon as something isn't clear, rather than guessing or staying silent.

In another session, a Year 12 student independently scored B+ on his first two practice exams and pinpointed areas he wants to improve, showing real ownership over his learning.

Meanwhile, a younger student who'd previously relied heavily on reminders is now tackling worksheets mostly solo and only seeks clarification when truly needed. Last week, she remembered how to convert decimals to percentages and got every question right on her class test.

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