English Tutor Woodforde, SA
Pay attention to the student and be attentive to their needs. Show interest in their progress as well as help set them goals. Understand that stress and anxiety needs to be addressed as something important and skills to move pass this are needed. Tutors should not and can not ever give up on a learner. I have a solid understanding of…

English Tutor Leabrook, SA
I consider a tutor to be successful when they are able to not only make a difference to their students' grades but also in their lives. I have had many tutors during high school for different subjects and found that only those who were passionate, genuinely interested in my life outside of just my studies and were willing to go the extra mile were…

English Tutor Myrtle Bank, SA
A tutor makes a student feel like even though the work is difficult and deadlines are looming, everything will be okay. The tutor acts as a mentor who helps students to improve their time management and study skills, as well as clarifying difficult points. This makes the student feel reassured about their progress through the course. I like to…

English Tutor Rostrevor, SA
Important things a tutor can do for a student can be as subtle as providing the basic habits of Learning and self progression for the student. Many younger students struggle with this and tutoring can only go so far for them. Enforcing self-learning and the confidence to learn sometimes can be more beneficial than the topics covered. Personal…

English Tutor Tranmere, SA
I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to give them the skills to be confident in their own learning. I have seen first hand that for a student, struggling at school is not only academically unadvisable, but can cause great anxiety and difficulty at school. Some skills come easier to some students than others, and there…

A tutor's most important responsibility is to assist students in developing their skills by engaging them, encouraging them and instilling their students with confidence. Support, clear and consistent instruction, and adaptability to different ways of learning are crucial to ensure students feel secure and are able to reach their potential. Belief…

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.
