Ryan
Tutor Hewett, 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…

To show compassion. We have all been where the student was once and understand some of the difficulties that they are facing learning the coursework for the first time. It is also very important that they are calm and focused during their studies and I believe it is the responsibility of the tutor to keep the student relaxed while working through…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to listen to their concerns and also find the gaps in knowledge they have to be able to work with them and focus on helping to learn what they are struggling with to help them through their education.

Bradley
Tutor Evanston Park, SA
Expanding on what I have written earlier, I think that one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is be prepared, and always willing to learn. I think this requires being a bit humble, and accepting that, even with something that may appear to be far below the tutor's learning, there may still be things that aren't known or have…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is teach them ways of learning that work for them. If they can learn properly the grades and interest in the subject should naturally follow.

Tutor Evanston, SA
I think the most important thing we can do as tutors is provide confidence. It’s the core of everything. Confidence radiates from knowing the content, trusting yourself with the hard work you’ve put in and reflecting upon past mistakes with a positive mindset to move forward. Whether it be in studying, work or life, confidence is key. My…

Inside HewettTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 4 student Alice worked on addition and subtraction skills in line with curriculum expectations, including the borrowing method for subtraction.
Year 8 Alyssa focused on applying order of operations (BIDMAS) to equations and interpreting worded maths problems, particularly those involving perimeter.
For senior student Elysia, lessons concentrated on revising long division using step-by-step working out, as well as simplifying fractions from her TAFE course materials.
Recent Challenges
A Year 4 student skipped homework practice for times tables, which slowed progress and meant lesson time was spent repeating basics instead of advancing.
In TAFE-level maths, another student struggled to retain division and BODMAS methods between lessons—gaps appeared after breaks, as "she forgets how to do the Maths process."
A senior secondary student came to revision sessions without prior review or questions prepared; as a tutor observed, "sessions could be better utilized if the student completed their own revision prior."
These habits led to missed opportunities for deeper learning and made each session feel like starting from scratch.
Recent Achievements
One Hewett tutor saw a real shift in Elysia's approach to maths: where she used to get lost in multi-step BODMAS problems, she now talks herself through each operation aloud and uses colour-coding to highlight her next step—strategies she created and now relies on independently.
Jasmine, a high schooler, surprised her tutor by not just tackling negative numbers but actively drawing on earlier calculator methods to solve new algebra topics without prompting.
Meanwhile, Jai (Year 4) took initiative during science-based maths sessions, choosing his own skip-counting challenges with Lego and showing off his new ability to count by 3s out loud for his mum.
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 Gawler Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Hewett Primary School.
