I think that some tutors get caught up in focusing solely on the work in front of them and miss out on teaching younger students about the life in front of them. Instead of doing more work, tutors should provide organisation tips and possible strategies they can put in place to improve the quality of their work. Also, forming close relationships…

English Tutor Teringie, SA
The most important thing would be to teach a student that studying shouldn't be a chore, and that giving it their all matters more than receiving a perfect grade. I understand that each student is different, and that not every approach will work for an individual, so it is essential that their tutor knows how to adapt to their needs while still…

A tutor can be really influential for each student they instruct. Not only do they have a significant impact on the learning outcomes for the student, but also on their passions and interests. In my experience, having a knowledgeable and enthusiastic teacher can foster a deep affection for a learning area or subject. For example, the care and…

English Tutor Stirling, SA
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is be able to teach them skills that they can use in their studies after they are finished with a tutor. Obviously it is a tutors job to teach them the task at hand, but I believe a great tutor is able to teach the student skills that will allow them to do better in school without the…

English Tutor Crafers West, SA
Allow the student to progress without barriers. The tutor should be able to pinpoint aspects of the student's work that require more focus. Keep the information tailored to this focus. I listen to the students and cater to their needs. I have a more complete understanding of my fields than most others do. I organise my tutoring and teaching…

Inside Mount GeorgeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Max worked on adding and subtracting mixed number fractions with different denominators and practised creative writing, focusing on commas and exclamation points.

For Year 9, Alyssia revised titrations in chemistry by solving problems using molar ratios and equations, then prepared for her exam by reviewing galvanic cells, redox reactions, and balancing net ionic equations.

In Year 10, Jacob focused on the equation of circles—covering graphing skills and transformations—and reviewed algebraic rearrangement techniques through targeted test revision.

Recent Challenges

A Year 7 student showed difficulty maintaining focus during maths, with distractions leading to missed steps in multi-part questions—one tutor noted, "he needed reminders to keep attention on the key words in worded problems."

In Year 10 algebra, over-reliance on equation formats led a student to default to set routines instead of explaining reasoning for each answer.

A senior student's chemistry revision revealed heavy dependence on looking back at previous solutions rather than attempting new types independently; this habit slowed progress when facing unfamiliar test questions and undermined confidence in applying knowledge under pressure.

Recent Achievements

One Mount George tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to lose marks on tests due to careless errors now slowing down and double-checking his work, catching most mistakes before finishing.

In a recent Year 9 session, a student who previously relied heavily on hints began independently tackling algebra problems, only asking for help when truly stuck.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner who once hesitated to ask questions started raising her hand whenever unsure about fractions, then correctly completed several mixed-number problems without prompts by the end of the lesson.

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 Stirling Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Bridgewater Primary School.
