It's not always the tutor that should be valued and respected but the students also needs the same respect and care.

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…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is make them love what they are studying and also make the subject one of their strengths.

Inside Salisbury HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Olivia practised converting between kilometres, metres and other units of length, then solved worded problems on the area of rectangles.

Year 10 student Jay revised trigonometry and measurement for an upcoming exam, focusing on applying formulas to different triangle types.

For Year 11, Lucy tackled discrete random variables in statistics by working through lesson notes after illness absence, and reviewed Bernoulli variables and binomial distributions using textbook questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 Maths, interpreting worded problems remained a challenge; as one tutor observed, "She needed extra time just to work out what the question was asking."

In Year 11 Chemistry, missing key procedures and results from an experiment led to gaps in a practical report—she'll need to contact her teacher for these details before completing the assignment.

For a Year 8 student working on algebraic manipulation, skipping simplification steps resulted in confusion during multi-step equations.

Meanwhile, a senior student preparing for English found it difficult to start research early, limiting lesson time spent refining arguments and ideas.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Salisbury Heights noticed that a Year 10 student who used to wait for prompts now self-attempts challenging maths questions, even tackling flowchart problems by choosing inverse operations without help.

In Year 11 Chemistry, Lucy moved from needing repeated explanations to independently identifying uncertain concepts and focusing the session on those—by lesson's end, she could confidently solve enthalpy calculations that were previously a struggle.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who once hesitated to use diagrams began drawing them unprompted to break down complex area problems and found this made understanding much easier.

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 Salisbury Community Hub Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Tyndale Christian School.
