In my opinion, being a person that students are comfortable with to reach out for help is one of the most important things. A tutor should be there to assist them, not add stress or pressure to them. I also think it is important for tutors to motivate the students to learn, instead of just giving answers, and in motivating them, tutors should be…

The most important thing a tutor can do is not to flaunt their own brainpower like a flashy superhero cape. Instead, it’s about helping students discover their own hidden superpowers and showing them how to wield these talents for their own success.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is to get a proper understanding of the level of mathematical 'maturity' of a specific student, rather than just assuming a certain background knowledge. Once this is established, it's possible to get the core of what exactly a student is struggling with (usually a particular fundamental concept) and…

I feel a tutor must be able to invoke a sense of interest and joy in a students minds for the subject they teach. As a tutor, you are someone who has studied the subject beforehand and are more knowledgeable about the subject than a student who is just starting out. This makes it difficult for tutors to reach their maximum potential while teaching…

Excellent tutor for your children. Christine takes the time to understand the child's needs and has a lovely nature. My kids adore her!
Kasi K, Ridleyton

Inside RidleytonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Olivia worked on converting between kilometres, metres, centimetres, and millimetres as well as tackling worded problems that required choosing the right mathematical operation.

In Year 8, Ethan practised expanding algebraic brackets and applied the difference of two squares formula to a range of examples.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Ava focused on solving quadratic equations and calculating the distance between two points using coordinate geometry methods.

Recent Challenges

Repeatedly forgetting to complete homework limited the chance to apply lesson feedback and slowed progress with algebra for a Year 7 student.

In Year 10, messy or cramped working in tests led to sign errors that weren't spotted until marking. She could consider spacing out her writing, which would help her see things clearer.

A senior student didn't use written notes efficiently for revision, so key formulae were missed in problem-solving. When a test was upcoming, she did not alert the tutor in advance, missing out on targeted preparation support.

Recent Achievements

A Ridleyton tutor noticed a real shift with Athena, a Year 10 student, who recently moved from hesitating on worded algebra problems to solving them efficiently and even scored 87% on her latest test—her highest yet.

In another session, Valentina in Year 8 began proactively writing down her thought process during homework instead of waiting for hints, helping her secure full marks.

Meanwhile, Natalia in primary school is now confidently breaking down multi-step worded maths questions and independently selecting the correct operations, something she struggled with just weeks ago.

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 Hindmarsh Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Australian Islamic College Adelaide.
