Science Tutor Eastwood, SA
Other than imparting the lessons in school, I think being able to empathize with the students is key in effective teaching. As a matter of strategy, what I will do is to meet them where they are academically, then prepare a plan and implement it to be able to meet our goal(s). I have the ability to relate with young kids well. Raising three…

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…

Apart from imparting knowledge, a good tutor should be able to make the student fall in love with the subject. This will guide the student to understand the topic better and most importantly relate it to practical scenarios. Further, a tutor plays a decisive role in unraveling the hidden potential of a student. Not everyone is meant to be a math…

Local Reviews

Stephan has been tutoring my daughter for a couple of years now. He is approachable, professional and excellent tutor. Eliza has gained and maintained her confidence in Maths which is especially important in Year 12. Stephan helped her transition to Zoom tutoring last year when he couldn't come to our house and this was so successful they continued their sessions remotely. I highly recommend Stephan!

Inside St MorrisTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Pranavi practised adding fractions with different denominators and converting between improper fractions and mixed numbers, using visual models to reinforce the process.

Year 7 student Milly worked on applying angle terminology, including supplementary and complementary angles, as well as revising operations with negative numbers for her test review.

For Year 10 student Harrison, the lesson focused on solving quadratic equations using the null factor law, with step-by-step practice on breaking down each equation.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 algebra, a student hesitated to show all working when expanding brackets, which led to confusion about like terms and missed negative signs—she often expressed the answer verbally but struggled to write it on paper.

In Year 7 maths, another student sometimes misplaced digits in multi-step addition (e.g., placing the '3' from 309 in the thousands column), causing repeated calculation errors.

A Year 4 student skipped double-checking decimal placement during division by 1000s, leading to mistakes like moving the decimal only two places instead of three. These moments slowed progress and required extra time to clarify foundational concepts.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in St Morris noticed Milly, a high school student, has become much more independent with angle classification—she can now work out even tricky reflex angles and solve for unknowns using supplementary and complementary rules after struggling before.

Harrison, also in high school, showed real growth in trigonometry; he started the session needing reminders but was later able to remember ratios and consistently show his working when finding side lengths.

Meanwhile, one younger student who previously hesitated to ask for help is now openly letting her tutor know when she's stuck, making it easier to target explanations.

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 Norwood Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Trinity Gardens School.
