The most important things an economics tutor can do could be split into two parts. Academically, tutors are there to help the student to learn all the knowledge required for them to achieve better grades. Spiritually, tutors are there as mentors, which they need to encourage the student to achieve their full potential, because usually due to exam…

Economics Tutor Bedford Park, SA
As an economics tutor, I could assist students to understand their subjects by motivating them involving an interactive class with students. When I went to tutoring, I had the best experience by having a very motivated, interactive and interesting tutor. I will try to become one of them though I'm still yet to gain formal experience of…

A tutor needs to be able to adapt to whatever questions or queries the student has. In my role as a PASS Leader at Adelaide Uni, I always had material prepared, which occasionally I didn't use because the students wanted to focus on something else. You need to be able to think on your feet and find a way to present the problem in a way the student…

This means my role will not only limit to a tutor but also a mentor, guiding my students on multiple aspects of their academic path. As a seasoned tutor and teacher of English,…

Encouragement and motivation are two of the biggest qualities that make or break an economics tutor; a tutor should be able to provide positive reinforcement to their students and support them all the way. Another important note is that a tutor should be versatile and adaptable, for not every child is the same, and it falls upon the tutor to make…

A tutor should help a student foremost achieve the specific academic goals that they wish to attain; but the way in which they should do this is by inspiring a love of learning in the student. By achieving this dual function, you are more likely to attain success for short term results as well as success for the entirety of their academic careers.…

Just be student focussed. Make them think for themselves. It took me a long time in my personal education journey to learn this, but once I learnt it, I make sure my students don't make the mistake of learning passively. They need to get involved, think for themselves, and this way they'll not only retain what they learn, but grow more broadly…

Inside Dover GardensTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Jessica focused on expressing decimal numbers as percentages and converting fractions to percentages, along with simplifying ratios.

Year 8 student Lucas worked through NAPLAN numeracy practice, specifically ordering decimal numbers to three places and exploring the relationships between fractions, decimals, and percentages.

For Year 6, Chloe revised equivalent fraction families using a dice game and practised multiplication and division by 10, 100, and 1000, also reinforcing division facts for the number 7.

Recent Challenges

A Year 3 student, when asked to label place value headings (hundredths to Hundred Thousands), left sections incomplete and mixed up the order—this led to confusion in decimal subtraction later that lesson.

In Year 10 algebra revision, "his understanding of the basics needs to be refreshed," but he skipped feedback on fraction division and didn't attempt practice questions, relying instead on worked examples.

During a senior session, one student appeared stressed and "on edge"—he avoided tackling new equation types independently and preferred watching online walkthroughs over active problem-solving. This meant key skills for upcoming assessments were not fully developed or practiced.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Dover Gardens recently saw a Year 9 student, Kai, who'd struggled with algebra, pick up the rules for fractions and confidently use new methods to isolate variables—he even tackled adding and dividing to get x on one side without hesitation.

In another session, Brooke (Year 10) chose to work through complex algebraic equations by hand instead of relying on her calculator as she had before.

Meanwhile, Jye (Year 5), who was once hesitant about reading aloud, now uses word attack strategies when faced with unfamiliar words and self-corrects while reading narrative texts.

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 Cultural Centre Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Stella Maris Parish School.
