I believe the most important thing a tutor can offer a child is patience. Impatience does not create a suitable learning environment. Qualities like these can prevent a child from wanting to learn, they may negatively associate with the subject, putting them further behind. Every child can succeed, given enough time. I have strengths as coach that…

I think the best tutor is one who guides the students properly and fairly not only in their academics but also about life challenges. Most importantly a tutor should be ready to explain a single concept even 10 times to students if they are not able to get that without getting annoyed Well , I'm quite patient which I think is my biggest strength…

A tutor can certainly change a child's mindset towards any subject because it all depends on making the basics of a subject strong so that there is no further problem. i must mention that I personally believe that there is no such thing as a silly question, so whatever doubts a student might face even if he assumes it to be silly, I am always…

A tutor has to be patient and welcoming for their students. The reason these students come for tutoring is because they face difficulty keeping up with school. So they should be given the space to understand at their own pace, in their own method and a teacher needs to recognize that. We need to recognize the method which we choose to teach a…

I believe that a tutor should make a student feel safe enough that they ask as many questions as they need to ask in order to fully understand a topic. A tutor should encourage the student to believe in their own abilities and develop the student's confidence to allow them to eventually approach and solve problems on their own. I believe this type…

Luke is loving Leo and looks forward to every lesson. His maths has greatly improved since we started with Leo and his confidence is increasing exponentially. In fact, his Maths teacher is so impressed by his abilities, he is keen to push Luke to take up studies in Maths at a higher level in Yr 12.

Inside ParalowieTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Archie revised BIDMAS and fractions, working on accuracy with operations involving both.

Year 8 student Isobel practised converting fractions to percentages as well as adding and subtracting fractions, focusing on method consistency.

For Year 5, Suhana began partitioning numbers, tackled basic multiplication and division, and explored simple fractions using hands-on examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student struggled with test questions on mitosis and meiosis, needing extra hints rather than using feedback to revisit key concepts.

In Year 9 algebra, a tutor noted, "he skipped showing steps in indices simplification," which made it hard to spot calculation errors.

A Year 8 learner hesitated to attempt composite shape problems independently, often giving up quickly if unsure how to begin.

Meanwhile, a primary student avoided working through multi-digit subtraction when confused by 'borrowing', offering guesses instead of engaging with the process—leaving misunderstandings unresolved and confidence low after setbacks.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Paralowie noticed one Year 11 student who had previously hesitated to check her answers now backchecking her work independently and catching mistakes before submission.

In a recent high school session, another student started talking through his thinking process out loud while solving algebraic questions—something he hadn't done before—which helped him solve problems with fewer errors.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student, who used to get flustered by large numbers of math problems, has begun calmly breaking them into smaller chunks and tackling each section without panicking. Last week, she finished a whole page independently.

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 Burton Community Hub Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Temple Christian College - Bethany Campus.
