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…

Science Tutor Golden Grove, SA
The most important thing is for a tutor to help a student understand the concepts, rather than giving them answers, to help them towards understanding the work independently. I consider myself to be patient with my students as they learn at their own speeds, while providing them with the path to find the answer…

The most important things a tutor can offer is ongoing support, record of the student’s growth and achievements, providing help outside of what the student already is aware of, treating them as an individual who is already capable and just needs a little help in unlocking their abilities and lastly help students set and meet their long term and…

As I alluded to earlier, I think the student's enjoyment is extremely important. That's not to say that they should be having fun at the expense of gaining knowledge, much the contrary; I think the best way for a student to gain knowledge that will last beyond the next test or exam is to have it conveyed in such a way that they take a genuine…

As a tutor, I believe it is critical for providing a space for students to not be afraid to be wrong and foster engagement.

A tutor must be able to understand the different needs for each student and be able to provide the…

In my opinion the most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is to set the student up in a positive mindset towards learning. This includes encouraging the student to strive in their academic life as well as assist them in understanding methods they can use to seek support in learning different concepts.

There are many important things a tutor can do for their students however, the greatest thing is being a supportive role model.

I think the best tutor is one who guides the students properly and fairly not only in their academics but also about life challenges. Most importantly a tutor should be ready to explain a single concept even 10 times to students if they are not able to get that without getting annoyed Well , I'm quite patient which I think is my biggest strength…

A good tutor can make the students love the subject. when they love it they practice it more, this makes them confident and thus, they love it more. All this results automatically in their improved grades. I plan my class to make it more interesting and easy. I would correlate the concepts with their real-life uses and try to make the concepts…

Local Reviews

My 10 year old daughter has been working with Zeel this year. She didn't know her times tables at all. After tutoring sessions, she now can write her times tables, and recite most of them. She has developed confidence in her approach to Maths, and her school teachers have noticed a definite improvement. Zeel has been a great fit for Holly, and responds well to her teaching.

Inside Golden GroveTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Michael worked through fraction multiplication, division, addition and subtraction, then practiced factorising algebraic expressions using guided examples.

For Year 9, Sienna focused on expanding and simplifying algebraic expressions as well as division and multiplication operations in algebra.

Meanwhile, Year 5 student Chloe revised the area of trapeziums and parallelograms, along with identifying types of triangles and finding unknown angles using diagrams to support her understanding.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student preparing for algebraic pattern questions sometimes hesitated to write down working, doubting correct steps even when on track. "He second-guessed himself despite getting the right answer," a tutor noted—this slowed progress and eroded confidence during revision.

In Year 7, messy written work in geometry made it hard to trace reasoning, with layout issues causing confusion about which angles were being calculated.

Meanwhile, a senior biology student forgot key materials for a homeostasis mock test, leading to incomplete practice and missed feedback opportunities that could have clarified misunderstandings before assessment day.

Recent Achievements

One Golden Grove tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to hesitate during physics revision is now managing her study time much more efficiently and recently received a grade she was genuinely proud of.

Another high school learner, previously shy about asking questions, now openly seeks clarification during sessions and checks her answers independently while tackling more homework on her own initiative.

In primary, a younger student who struggled with reading aloud has started self-correcting spelling mistakes and read the next chapter of "The Faraway Tree" out loud without prompting.

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 City of Tea Tree Gully Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Golden Grove High School.
