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…

Tutor Carey Gully, SA
The roll of a tutor is two-fold. Firstly, to help students understand the material they are working with. There are many ways to go about this, but one of the most important roles of a tutor is to be able to bring intuition to the abstract. This in addition to introducing effective methods for solving problems. The second key roll is helping…

Provide a structured and highly efficient way of teaching that simultaneously encourages independent problem-solving and allows the student to understand the concepts in a comprehensive way. Students should have a deep understanding about the subject which is not just a cut-and-paste from what the teacher explains. Teaching independent critical…

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…

Hence, I believe that teaching a student to be confident in themselves and their…

Listening to the students is the most important things a tutor can do. Not everyone can study at the same pace or method. While I have my method of teaching, it helps the student to be more comfortable to study in a way that they are familiar or works for them. I can be as soft or hard as required to teach my students. Listening to them and…

The most important goal for a tutor is to spark students' interest in the subject. Tutoring is not only about assisting with a student's grade. I do believe, though, that every student should find out what they are enthusiastic about. Due to my dual language proficiency in English and Chinese as an international student, I have experience…

As a tutor, the most important thing is to "preach". Tutors who don't know how to "preach" often only focus on academic matters, which can easily lead to intensified conflicts between teachers and students. The premise of "preaching" is to establish a harmonious teacher-student relationship. I think there are three key points, that is, to be more…

One of the most important things I have realised over helping my friends in year 12 would be to walk through the question and not actually doing the question for the student. Sure you could do the question for them and they could get full marks for an assignment or whatever, but they would not understand the fundamentals lying behind the question…

Inside PiccadillyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Daniel worked on adding and subtracting mixed number fractions with different denominators and practised creative writing by focusing on commas and exclamation points.

In Year 10, Alyssia revised titration calculations in chemistry, including using the n = m/M and C Ă— V equations, and balanced chemical equations for her upcoming exam.

For Year 11, Zoe tackled sketching graphs using both x- and y-intercepts as well as the gradient-intercept method to strengthen her understanding of linear functions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student often rushed through algebra problems, showing working that was hard to follow and skipped steps, which made it difficult to catch sign errors and led to repeated mistakes.

In a Year 5 English session, messy handwriting—with capital letters scattered mid-sentence—made some responses confusing even when ideas were clear.

One Year 11 student relied heavily on formula sheets for chemistry calculations instead of recalling processes independently; as noted, "she preferred checking old answers before trying new ones."

After missing key reasoning in geometry tests, a Year 8 learner left several explanations incomplete, which meant losing marks despite knowing the content.

Recent Achievements

One Piccadilly tutor recently noticed a big shift with a Year 11 student who had struggled with titration calculations—by the end of their session, she could complete complex questions independently, having previously needed step-by-step guidance.

A Year 8 student showed new initiative in maths: after once relying heavily on prompts, he now pinpoints his own uncertainties and actively asks targeted questions until he understands, guiding the lesson himself.

In Year 5, a student who used to need reminders for each fraction problem managed several problems in a row independently before asking for help only when truly stuck.

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 Crafers Primary School.
