A tutor should take responsibility for helping students perform well academically. This is achieved through developing a strong relationship with the student ensuring the one-on-one sessions are productive. Additionally, tutors should identify students’ individual learning needs and discuss the students’ progress with their parents/guardians.…

The most valuable thing a tutor can do is show children that learning can be easy, enjoyable, and rewarding. Tutors are positive role models to students and can be academic mentors to them which has great influence to their entire wellbeing. My greatest strength as a tutor is being able to explain content in a variety of ways. If a child doesn’t…

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…

Inside Gould CreekTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4: Charlotte focused on reading comprehension and spelling by tackling word searches and syllable counting, along with reading several chapters from Andy Griffiths' 13-Storey Treehouse aloud.

Year 8: Chase explored trigonometry, including classifying angles by quadrant and solving triangle problems using cosine rule, while also working through quadratic equations—finding roots and factorising expressions.

For Year 11, Dominic practiced solving probability questions using tree diagrams and conditional probabilities, then reviewed algebraic techniques for rearranging equations ahead of a test.

Recent Challenges

In Year 3 English, Chase's tendency to speed-read and skip lines when encountering difficult words meant he often missed key information in texts—one tutor observed, "he must read each word carefully and slowly."

For Year 7–8 maths, Chelsea repeatedly left written solutions underdeveloped; steps were skipped or insufficiently detailed, which made it harder for her to identify errors and slowed progress with new topics.

In Year 10 mathematics, Caitlin's strong mental calculations led her to avoid writing working for complex problems. As a result, she sometimes struggled to spot sign mistakes during algebraic reasoning exercises.

Recent Achievements

One Gould Creek tutor noticed Chelsea, a Year 10 student, now tackles challenging algebra problems by independently breaking them down and isn't shy about asking for clarification mid-session—she used to wait until the end.

Caitlin, in Year 9, has started revising her daily work without reminders and this showed when she solved a set of geometry problems faster than before, applying formulas correctly on her own.

Meanwhile, Chase in primary school has shifted from guessing at unfamiliar words to confidently using finger-tap spelling and reading strategies; last session he explained new vocabulary in his own words before moving on to puzzles.

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 Craigmore South Primary School.
