I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for their student is to give them tools they can use to help themselves outside of tutoring sessions and in the future. I am good at analyzing the key issue a student is experiencing within a subject, then adapting my teaching style to better suit their…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is to help the student build confidence in their own ability to learn. It's not just about giving answers, but about encouraging curiosity and helping them develop problem-solving skills. A good tutor should be patient, supportive, and focused on helping the student understand the "why" behind…

The overall goal is to make sure the student leaves the session with a new knowledge or skills but also they should enjoy the session so they won’t feel extra tired especially after school. I think that I am a patient but stern. I understand that younger children can get distracted very easily, so I would say I’m great at being patient with…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is break down the "scary" wall that is the challenging material and build confidence in the student. Often times the student "can" do it but they just lack confidence in themselves. My greatest strength is my ability to connect with people, this creates a non-threatening and non-judgemental…

Josh is doing a terrific job with our 9 year old daughter Sophie. Sophie loves her sessions with Josh so much that she has now asked for 2 a week. A great testament to Josh because what child is happy to do 2 extra hours work after school and on the weekend. The request was self initiated. Josh has a really good style which blends hard work with fun - a great way to keep children engaged. It has only be a month and we can see really good progress in Sophie and her abilities and confidence.

Inside Kent TownTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Alex worked through algebraic word problems and tackled rates and ratio questions, practising setting up equations from real-world scenarios.

In Year 10, Mia focused on solving trigonometry word problems and challenging geometry questions, using diagrams to visualise unknown sides and angles.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Kael concentrated on statistics for Methods, working through textbook exercises involving data interpretation and probability concepts in preparation for an upcoming assessment.

Recent Challenges

In Year 7, a student's maths solutions were difficult to follow due to unclear layout; as noted, "his presentation of solutions made it harder for him to understand the problem-solving process."

A Year 9 student struggled with setting up equations in word problems—often not defining variables clearly before moving forward.

In Year 11 Biology, another found it challenging to implement memory tools she had created for differentiating endocytosis and exocytosis.

Meanwhile, a senior student preparing a folio assignment in Specialist Maths had trouble structuring their approach when faced with unfamiliar, open-ended graphing tasks—resulting in repeated trial-and-error rather than purposeful revision.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Kent Town noticed a big change in a Year 11 student who used to hesitate when tackling worded algebra problems; now, he slows down and talks through each step out loud before solving, which has led to more accurate answers.

Another recent win involved a Year 10 student who previously struggled with trigonometry—she now confidently labels triangle sides herself and can choose the correct formula for each problem without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student, once quiet during sessions, has started asking lots of questions while building two-way tables for probability tasks.

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 Adelaide City Libraries - City Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Prince Alfred College.
