I consider the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to ultimately inspire them in a love of learning and hopefully pass onto them capsules of knowledge which are priceless. My strengths as a tutor are to challenge the pupils to think abstractly about language and harness the true power it possesses. I love hearing the pupil's own…

When each session ends, students should be comfortable with the content covered, and also comfortable with applying the concepts in a variety of ways. Tutors need to enable students and help their way of thinking on how to approach different kinds of questions, especially questions that students don't know how to approach. Also, it is important…

A good tutor should firstly ensure that the student has a solid grasp of the foundational knowledge underpinning their subject, before moving on to teach more complex concepts. This is because oftentimes a subject's more advanced concepts will draw heavily from assumed foundational knowledge. Additionally a tutor can instill confidence in a…

My understanding of a tutors role is not to do the students work, yet to uncover their natural ability so that they may proceed to increase their academic results.

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is teach them to enjoy learning.

Inside HectorvilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Alex explored electromagnetic induction, applying Faraday's Law and working through exam-style questions on eddy currents and AC/DC generators.

Year 10 student Mia focused on vector geometry, tackling problems involving vectors in component form and supporting her learning with vector assignment tasks.

Meanwhile, Year 7 student Daniel worked on mastering fractions by practicing addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of fractions alongside basic algebra exercises to build foundational skills.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student frequently relied on mental calculations for algebra, skipping formal written steps. As one tutor noted, "the layout of his working could be clearer"—when errors occurred, retracing logic became difficult and cost time.

In Year 11 revision, a student often defaulted to easy methods or familiar question types; this meant new exam content sometimes felt overwhelming because not enough practice was spent on less comfortable material.

During a Year 10 session, another student hesitated to ask specific questions about what she found challenging in trigonometry—leading to confusion persisting between lessons and uncertainty growing before tests.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Hectorville noticed that one Year 11 student, who previously hesitated to speak up when confused, has started openly asking for help as soon as she's unsure—making sessions much more productive.

In a recent high school physics session, a student who'd struggled with magnetic induction was able to apply his new understanding to exam-style questions independently and even tackled some tougher problems without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner pushed through an initial misunderstanding in fractions and persisted until she got it right on her own.

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 Campbelltown Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like East Torrens Primary School.
