As I alluded to earlier, I think the student's enjoyment is extremely important. That's not to say that they should be having fun at the expense of gaining knowledge, much the contrary; I think the best way for a student to gain knowledge that will last beyond the next test or exam is to have it conveyed in such a way that they take a genuine…

Inside Salisbury SouthTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 6 student Harry focused on adding and subtracting decimal numbers and completed a timed word problem test involving decimals.
Year 8 student Ava worked through collecting like terms in algebra, then moved to multiplying negative integers using practice questions from her homework.
For Year 10, Maya explored figurative language by analysing metaphors and similes within a Harlem Renaissance poem, with follow-up essay writing for deeper understanding.
Recent Challenges
A Year 11 student's essay was well structured but noticeably short—homework time wasn't fully utilised, which limited depth.
In Year 9 algebra, as a tutor observed, "he skipped showing steps in working out," making it hard to spot calculation errors.
One Year 8 student repeatedly forgot to complete homework for several weeks, causing visible gaps when new concepts were introduced.
A Year 4 learner left several questions unfinished due to distraction and missed instructions; "gets off track easily" appeared more than once in the notes.
During online lessons, a senior student found distractions crept in, reducing focus during key practice on like terms.
Recent Achievements
One Salisbury South tutor saw a big shift in a Year 9 student's approach to maths: after struggling with negative integers, he now works through adding and subtracting them almost error-free and immediately picked up multiplying negatives—last session, he got just two homework questions wrong.
In English, a high schooler who previously missed figurative language cues is now independently spotting metaphors, similes, and even new examples like hyperbole and alliteration.
For a younger student, the tutor noted she now reads aloud without prompting and self-corrects when she notices mistakes—something she hesitated to do before.

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 Keller Road Primary School.
