Economics 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…

To me, the most important thing a tutor can do is to foster a supportive and positive learning environment. This is because it is important to create a safe and encouraging space where students feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes and improvements. It is also important for the tutor to tailor the teaching approach to each individual…

I believe it is important to understand the student's weaknesses and strengths before starting to teach them. I have come across a common problem with students, which is that they often jump straight into trying to solve a problem without fully understanding the theory/basics first. Hence, I try to first help them understand the basics then go…

a tutor first needs to understand the capability of the student considering all the strengths and weakness and work on it. Only just transforming knowledge will not help the child grow but instead develop a liking for that particular subject will make that child understand it more easily. Temporary teaching does't work in this teaching field.…

Therefore, what I can do is to activate their interests and build up confidence in my way. There are…

A tutor needs to always be supportive. A student needs a tutor because (s)he wants help. Sometimes not getting a good result can be frustrating for them.

Of course being able to teach and make the student understand the lesson. But understanding does not simply imply understanding just for the sake of passing the subject in the Uni, understanding the lesson means how the learning can be applied to practical experience or to day to day living.

Inside StepneyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Leo practised multiplication facts up to 12x tables and worked on basic equivalent fractions with denominators up to 5.

In Year 8, Sarah focused on solving linear equations and revising graphical coordinates, including plotting points on the Cartesian plane.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Tom tackled Pythagoras' Theorem using real-world triangle problems and explored introductory trigonometry concepts through guided examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 3 student hesitated to write times tables, often needing drawn aids and still unsure of multiplication basics.

In Year 7 algebra, "he skipped showing steps in equations, which hid sign errors," leading to confusion with negatives and missed feedback opportunities.

A Year 9 student's work was scattered across the page—numbers blended together and operators lost—making it hard to trace their logic during trigonometry problems.

Meanwhile, a senior student faced setbacks when distracted on the laptop during coordinate geometry tasks; answers were attempted mentally but mistakes crept in, leaving corrections unseen until review.

Recent Achievements

One Stepney tutor noticed a Year 9 student who, after regularly skipping steps in algebra, now writes out his process clearly and explains how he arrives at answers—especially when tackling mixed-to-improper fractions.

In another session, a Year 11 student who previously hesitated to ask for help during assignments started flagging questions on index laws that felt tricky, then worked through them independently after just one prompt.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner surprised her tutor by confidently applying the same rule to both numerator and denominator for equivalent fractions—a real turnaround from needing every step modelled last week.

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 St Peters Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like East Adelaide School.
