Geography Tutor Semaphore South, SA

Inside CroydonTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 8 student Aryan worked through rearranging linear equations and inequalities, then began graphing straight-line equations.
Another Year 8, Manav, focused on factorising and expanding algebraic expressions with variables and revised dividing fractions and square roots.
For Year 7, Anna tackled area and circumference of circles before moving onto volume calculations for cylinders and other prisms, using diagrams to support her understanding.
Recent Challenges
A Year 8 student's exercise book was described as "could be a bit more neat with the writing and presenting," making it hard to check working, especially during decimal or algebra questions.
In Year 11, after not long on an assignment, one student gave up—confidence dropped quickly when answers didn't come easily, so revision time was spent worrying rather than reviewing feedback.
For a Year 6 learner, forgetting set homework ("needs more initiative doing set homework") meant missing out on key practice before tests.
A Year 9 student relied on guessing in basic maths rather than careful checking; this led to repeated errors and lost focus mid-task.
Recent Achievements
A tutor in Croydon noticed one Year 10 student who used to guess answers now takes the time to write out her thinking and talk through stuck points, which has helped her solve worded questions more independently.
Another high school student recently completed all assigned homework ahead of schedule for the first time, showing new initiative compared to earlier weeks when tasks were left unfinished.
Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who struggled with multi-step problems can now break down multiplication word questions into manageable parts and work them out without prompting—she finished her last set solo for the first 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 Hindmarsh Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Joseph's School.
