English Tutor Rose Park, SA
I think that being able to build a rapport with the student is one of the fundamental skills to be a good tutor. This lays the foundation for the student being comfortable in asking questions to the tutor, as well as the tutor finding a teaching style that is most suited to the student. I am confident in my ability to explain subject matter to the…

The most important things I can do for a student, is to put myself in their shoes when teaching. Often some students take longer to understand, comprehend or apply the knowledge taught. It' so important to go at their pace, whilst challenging them as well, because there's nothing we can't achieve if we set our minds to it. It' important to simply…

I think that a tutor must be patient and remain composed with each student.

I have (as told to me by all my ever-suffering associates) a 'wild' vocabulary, and for English…

Expanding on what I have written earlier, I think that one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is be prepared, and always willing to learn. I think this requires being a bit humble, and accepting that, even with something that may appear to be far below the tutor's learning, there may still be things that aren't known or have…

A tutor can tailor instruction to meet the specific needs, learning style, and pace of the student. Moreover, students can help students understand complex concepts by providing clear explanations, examples, and demonstrations. Additionally, a tutor can assess the student's strengths and weaknesses in a subject and use this assessment to create…

I believe the most powerful way a tutor can aid a student is by giving them confidence. More than often, students can show more vulnerability in a one-on-one session than in a classroom surrounded by their peers, and so the best thing I can do is use these private sessions to impart confidence in the students by making them see ways they can…

A tutor can be a guiding light for students. Each student has their own way of absorbing the information that they are taught. This might not always be available to students in a large classroom setting. A good tutor recognizes the strengths and weaknesses of the students and guides them accordingly.

The most important thing that a tutor can do is to pivot their teaching style in order to suit not only the content but how the student learns.

a tutor first needs to understand the capability of the student considering all the strengths and weakness and work on it. Only just transforming knowledge will not help the child grow but instead develop a liking for that particular subject will make that child understand it more easily.

Inside College ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Naethan practised multiplication tables up to 12 and worked on basic equivalent fractions with denominators up to 5.

In Year 8, Alana focused on solving linear equations and multiplying, dividing, adding, and subtracting algebraic fractions.

For Year 10, Priya revised trigonometry concepts including SOHCAHTOA and tackled complex geometry word problems using diagrams for visual support.

Recent Challenges

In Year 3, one student found times tables confusing and struggled to grasp their logic, so "drew a sheet out of all the time tables as well as drawings to help."

In Year 8, messy or unclear working when solving fraction problems meant that key steps were missed—this made self-checking difficult.

A Year 10 student lost concentration during multi-step algebraic word problems, often needing prompts to refocus and start writing down equations.

Meanwhile, a senior student preparing for Maths Methods tests experienced stress under time pressure and ran out of time to attempt unfamiliar questions, impacting confidence.

Recent Achievements

One College Park tutor noticed a Year 9 student who previously hesitated to ask for help now regularly voices doubts during algebra lessons, leading to quicker understanding of word problems and more logical solutions.

In a recent high school session, a student who used to make errors in NAPLAN-style questions started double-checking his work independently and correcting mistakes on the spot.

Meanwhile, a younger student who struggled with fractions in homework was able to redo those problems successfully during tutoring and talked through her steps aloud—finishing even the bonus question without extra support.

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 St Peters Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Peter's College.
