Modern curriculum is mostly based on a thought process that works for most students. But not for all, and school teachers don't usually have the capacity to take care of all the students individually. That's where a tutor can help. Everybody thinks about and understand scientific ideas and theories in their own, personal way. A tutor can lead the…

I think that a tutor should be approachable - the student shouldn't be afraid to say that they don't understand something. After all, the tutor is there to help the student through any new concepts and ensure that they are taught in an easy to understand way. The tutor should be able to adapt to the student's most effective learning techiques i.e.…

The tutor must be supportive of their work and problems as well where students can feel comfortable around you in expressing their opinions and with their own work. A tutor must be engaging from the moment they first meet the student, to how they deliver the tutoring, to the last second that they leave each tutoring session. A tutor must also be…

I think that the most important things a tutor can do for a student are these two things: Firstly teaching them what they need to learn (the subject you're tutoring), but more importantly, teaching them the skills of how to be confident and go find out what they need to learn and teach themselves. It is overall, teaching them the skills of how…

Being able to work with students and understand how they are feeling toward the content is essential as the core barrier hindering student performance is primarily their level of confidence related to the subject/topic at hand. So to teach effectively, in my experience, is to connect with the students and build their skills and confidence to…

Gentle nurturing and encouragement, whilst allowing the student to use their own brain to figure out the answers for themselves, not giving students the answers!

The most important things for a tutor is to be supportive and understanding. It is difficult for a lot of people to admit that they need help so it is important to support students as they learn and make mistakes so they do not shut themselves off from help or knowledge in the future. My main strength in tutoring is being able to adapt my approach…

Very happy with our tutor. She's smart focused, and my daughter is focused and happy with her
Warrick

Inside KangarillaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ava practised dividing and multiplying fractions, then converted fractions to decimals while balancing scales using visual models.

For Year 10, Ethan focused on applying the sine and cosine rules to solve triangle problems, as well as tackling quadratic equations by finding x- and y-intercepts.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Lily completed a psychology assignment exploring cognitive development theories, followed by research project proposal planning for her Stage 2 subject.

Recent Challenges

Repeatedly left out units in science calculations, which made it harder to check if answers were correct—"he kept forgetting units on every question."

In Year 10 maths, a reluctance to show all working meant sign errors went unnoticed during factorisation and expansion.

For a senior English task, one student's analysis lacked depth because they didn't connect film techniques clearly to themes, leaving their argument underdeveloped.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student's paragraph structure was inconsistent in recount writing, so their ideas felt disjointed and the reflection component remained unclear.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Kangarilla noticed a Year 10 student who previously mixed up the relationship between equations and graphs now confidently explains how changing variables shifts a parabola—something that was a sticking point just weeks ago.

In a recent session, a Year 12 student tackled compound interest problems for mortgages independently after struggling to connect formulas with real-world applications earlier in the term.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student who used to rush through writing tasks took time this week to plan and present her recount using literary devices, showing new care and thoughtfulness in her approach.

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 Aberfoyle Park (The Hub) Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kangarilla Primary School.
