Modern History Tutor Smithfield, SA
I think that curiosity and the satisfaction of that curiosity is the most enjoyable part of learning. Whilst students have different goals for their learning the tutor has an opportunity to impact a life positively. The most important thing is to achieve the student's goal but over and above that a tutor can engender a love of learning that will…

Samuel

Modern History Tutor Hillbank, SA
I think that a tutor must be patient and remain composed with each student. A tutor is meant to be that person whose teaching is tailored, so it requires an individualized approach, picked up and constantly adjusted as needs change and develop. I have (as told to me by all my ever-suffering associates) a 'wild' vocabulary, and for English…

Modern History Tutor Salisbury Plain, SA
The most important thing that a tutor for students is to allow them to work out answers for themselves. Of course, tutors should provide guidance, but they should not merely provide answers. Additionally, I feel that students must be allowed room to make mistakes. A tutor should not be one to apply too much pressure on a student, as too much force…

Modern History Tutor Golden Grove, SA
I think the most important thing that a tutor can do for their student is remaining patient and continue to persevere with the content. In my experience, if I didn't understand a concept or was struggling with a question, it was extremely helpful when my tutor continued to talk me through the topic and didn't get frustrated at me for not…

Modern History Tutor Golden Grove, SA
The most important things a tutor can do is to tailor their lessons to suit their individual students as every student learns differently and has different learning needs. It is also important that the tutor has knowledge on the curriculum that the student is being taught at school so they can align what they teach what the student is learning at…

Local Reviews

I want to thank Ezy Maths Tutoring, as Joshua seems to have connected well with David and is working with his strengths. Already we are seeing a difference in the confidence of David to tackle his Maths and is being guided to see the areas that he is lacking instead of total self doubt of thinking that he knows nothing .

Inside Elizabeth ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Kody focused on division and addition through step-by-step practice, also tackling multiplication in a later session.

Year 8 student Chase worked on comparing and contrasting media types for English, and completed a history assignment about Viking transportation, shipbuilding materials, and the role of horses using his own research.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Sienna revised lines and angles by solving geometry problems, then moved on to constructing triangles with a protractor while discussing the exterior angle property.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student in mathematics showed strong mental calculation skills, but as noted, "the writing part takes a back seat," leading to skipped steps and confusion when reviewing algebraic work.

In Year 8 geometry, incomplete recall of angle names and properties meant solutions were correct but lacked clear reasoning—this made revision less effective.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student struggled to remember key facts for worded problems and lost track of multi-step calculations without written support.

When homework or essential materials were forgotten (Year 6), progress in mastering new content slowed noticeably during the lesson.

Recent Achievements

One Elizabeth Park tutor noticed Chelsea, a high school student, now tackles equations with much more independence—she regularly completes her homework neatly and asks clarifying questions as soon as something feels unclear, which marks a big shift from her earlier hesitation to speak up.

In another session, Caitlin was able to apply trigonometric ratios quickly to unfamiliar word problems; she previously needed step-by-step prompting but now moves through new examples on her own initiative.

Meanwhile, Chase in primary years has begun using the finger-tap method unprompted when spelling tricky words—a strategy he used to avoid because it felt slow—and recently finished a full puzzle round without needing help.

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 Playford Civic Centre Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Elizabeth Park Primary School.
