Psychology Tutor Direk, SA
I believe the most important thing a tutor can offer a child is patience. Impatience does not create a suitable learning environment. Qualities like these can prevent a child from wanting to learn, they may negatively associate with the subject, putting them further behind. Every child can succeed, given enough time. I have strengths as coach that…

Psychology Tutor Burton, SA
In my opinion, as a tutor, it is very important to cherish the students as they progressed, acknowledging their work and encourage them to try to do with their full potential.

Ezymath has been the best thing for my daughter, who is currently in her final year at school. Her tutor Sophie is absolutely doing a brilliant job helping my daughter. She is very cheerful and I highly recommend her to anyone.

Inside Smithfield PlainsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 Ariana worked on symmetry in shapes and completed a year 4 content quiz to consolidate her understanding.

In Year 10, Sam revised quadratic equations for an upcoming maths exam and received support with his physics assignment, focusing on acceleration calculations and using formulae.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Jamie tackled biology topics including Punnett squares, mitosis versus meiosis, and explored the structure of DNA by working through questions that reinforced key genetic concepts.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student arrived without their Biology test or Merchant of Venice materials, so key texts could not be reviewed during the session.

In Year 11, another student had not selected any articles for a research task; "because of time pressure the opportunity to absorb learning is limited," noted the tutor.

For a Year 8 maths lesson, skipping steps in equations meant sign errors went unnoticed and correcting them took up valuable lesson time.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner's workbook layout made it difficult to follow number patterns—misplaced columns led to confusion when bridging to ten.

Recent Achievements

A Smithfield Plains tutor noticed a big shift with one Year 10 student who used to rush through data questions but now double-checks formulas and compares lines, showing real care in getting results right.

In a senior biology session, a student who often hesitated to participate began identifying critical observations during experiments and talked through each step out loud instead of staying quiet.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner started picking up on repetitive phrasing in her essays by herself—something she struggled with before—and finished revising two paragraphs without needing reminders.

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 Playford Civic Centre Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like John Hartley School B-6.
