Physics Tutor Ascot Park, SA
I think the most important thing a tutor can do is build the confidence and problem solving skills of his or her students. I think learning through understanding is much better than learning by rote. I therefore try to grow the problem solving skills of my students by regularly asking them questions and building new knowledge on what they already…

Physics Tutor St Marys, SA
Not all students are modelled the same way. Some are able to learn by studying the books while others require a lot of practice. Hence I believe that teaching the student how to study based on his or her strengths is the best thing a tutor can do and I will strive to achieve that at all costs. I spend a lot of time communicating with the student…

Physics Tutor Glenelg South, SA
The biggest thing that I can do is instill a perfect, complete understanding of the topic at a conceptual level. Memorizing formulas and techniques is so inefficient, and by instead focusing on conceptual understanding, my students can tackle unfamiliar problems with confidence. My biggest strength would be my adaptable communication skills. I…

Physics Tutor Glenelg South, SA
I would say the most important thing is connecting with the students and making them feel understood. As long as there's mutual respect, it becomes a lot easier to guide them. I think my largest strength is that I'm able to explain concepts in multiple ways and help visualise the problems. I also have a very firm understanding of many stage 1 and…

As I mentioned above, demonstrating what we teach can really help students understand the concepts and ideas better. As a tutor, I believe it's of utmost relevance to encourage students to ask doubts, enhance their presentation skills and build confidence. By pointing out the real-life applications of what they have studied will induce curiosity…

Firstly, I try to equip them with the basics and deeper concepts that will enable them to understand and tackle complex problems. Secondly, I try to outline methodological process and problem solving techniques to enable them to reach solutions by themselves.

Helping the students learn core concepts and making them understand the problem is the most important thing a tutor can do. Figuring out what the student is struggling with and helping them in those areas is probably the best thing a tutor can do.

The important thing is to develop the student's ability to independently study. It is like that proverb 'Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day.

A good tutor should aim to understand the way their student thinks and aim to tailor the lesson to best suit their individual learning style. In addition, a good tutor should be motivating, encouraging and friendly so that the student is not afraid or hesitant to ask for assistance or say they don't understand a particular thing. As someone who is…

Local Reviews

My tutoring is going great, Rory is awesome and I'm very happy with the way things are going. Feeling so much better about my maths already.
Belinda, Oaklands Park

Inside Oaklands ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Ava focused on ordering decimal numbers to three places and practiced NAPLAN numeracy questions involving whole number place value up to one million.

Year 6 student Oliver revised the terminology and equivalence of improper fractions and mixed numbers, as well as compared decimal numbers to three decimal places.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Sophie worked through converting metric units of measurement and developed strategies for long multiplication with multi-digit numbers.

Recent Challenges

In Year 4 maths, a student showed ongoing confusion with place value boards, especially labelling columns from hundredths to hundred thousands—this led to misplacement of numbers during decimal tasks.

For a Year 7 learner, messy working in algebra meant "the distributive law steps were hard to track," causing repeated errors when substituting into expressions.

A senior student in Year 10 often revised only familiar fraction types and avoided tackling new equivalence problems; this narrowed progress before assessments.

One student's reluctance to attempt challenging reading comprehension in English limited exposure to higher-order questions, making it difficult to build confidence with inference skills.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Oaklands Park noticed a real shift with Brooke, a high school student, who used to rely on calculators for tricky maths but now chooses to solve algebraic equations and convert fractions herself—she's even started checking her work without prompting.

Another secondary student, Maelie, previously hesitant with long division, is now working through multi-step problems independently and using the correct vocabulary when explaining each stage.

Meanwhile, Jye (primary) surprised his tutor by reading aloud new narrative texts with strong self-correction skills and pausing for punctuation—something he avoided last term.

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 Cultural Centre Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Christ the King School.
