Psychology Tutor Clarence Gardens, SA
The most important thing a tutor can do is make sure they don't generalize their teaching across all students. Every student has their own strengths/ weaknesses and their own ways of learning and it is important for a tutor to recognize and build upon that so they reach their potential. I am incredibly patient and my passion for what I teach is…

Inside FitzroyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Emily worked on simplifying fractions and converting between units, including multiplying and dividing by 10, 100, and 1000.

For Year 9, Sam practised expanding brackets in algebra and solving equations with fractions using cross-multiplication.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Olivia focused on factorising quadratic trinomials and applied these skills to financial problem scenarios.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often skipped revising written notes before starting exercises, leading to repeated confusion with algebra sign rules—she made the same mistake regarding sign changing very often despite being reminded and her notes are available.

In Year 6, forgetting to complete homework meant less time consolidating geometry formulas.

A Year 10 student did not inform the tutor ahead of a test, missing out on targeted preparation.

Several students in Years 4 and 7 relied on calculators for timetables instead of memorisation, slowing progress in more complex topics.

Moments of distraction during lessons left working incomplete or unclear.

Recent Achievements

A Fitzroy tutor recently noticed Athena, a Year 10 student, making a shift from needing reminders to independently taking notes and actively solving algebraic word problems—she even scored 87% on her latest test after struggling with similar content last term.

In another session, Constanza (Year 7) moved from hesitating over new fractions topics to posting thoughtful questions and finishing her homework without prompting.

Meanwhile, Valentina in Year 6 started writing down her problem-solving steps during lessons instead of relying solely on verbal explanations; she completed all her homework and correctly applied new strategies to worded equations.

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 Adelaide City Libraries - Tynte Street—or at your child's school (with permission), like Blackfriars Priory School.
