Physics Tutor Newton, SA
A tutor should take their time with a student and make sure the student understands before moving on. I believe the purpose of tutoring should be to provide learning strategies that are specific to the individual in contrast with teaching in a classroom (at the pace of the class). A tutor should provide multiple strategies for learning. For…

I believe the key roles of a tutor are to create a safe and supportive learning environment, understand each student’s strengths and weaknesses, explain concepts in a way that makes sense to them, and help them build study skills and confidence that go beyond the subject at hand. I am patient, adaptable and communicate clearly. I can break down…

It would have to be that a tutor can teach a student a one on one lesson and help him improve his understanding about different ways to approach a maths or english problem which will in turn help the student extremely in the future. A tutor must be like a very smart class mate which doesnt give you the answer directly but instead takes him time to…

I assert that successful tutors are able to build strong relationships with their students as it personalizes learning. Another thing is to teach to the student's strengths and minimizes the students weaknesses. Every student and their way of learning is different, so, as a tutor, one should be flexible according to the needs of the perplexed…

A tutor can explain the main concept, however,the related questions must be solved by the student itself as it promotes the concept of self-learning.

The important thing a tutor can do for a student is to increase their curiosity about learning a topic. So they can do self-study and be interested in learning. Because a tutor will teach for 1-2 hours max after that a student has to study by themselves and without enough curiosity and will to learn they won't be able to do that. My strengths…

Tutoring is going very well. Alicia is great with Lucy a and we are very happy with how Lucy is feeling towards her maths work.
Sara, Golden Grove

Inside Surrey DownsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Jack focused on fraction operations—multiplying, dividing, adding and subtracting fractions—as well as factorising basic algebraic expressions.

Year 9 student Olivia practised applying the area of a triangle formula to worded problems and built confidence using function notation, linking both to her physics formulas for an upcoming test.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Emily worked through transformations of functions and received guidance with her investigation task by breaking down each step visually.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student often second-guessed her answers and hesitated to ask for clarification in algebra, which led to avoidable confusion—"she still second guesses herself occasionally," one tutor noted.

In Year 11 Biology, a student showed reluctance to voice questions about feedback loops, missing key points during discussions.

For a Year 7 maths task on linear patterns, the layout of working was messy and made errors harder to spot; "the way he sets out his working is a little hard to follow."

Meanwhile, a primary student avoided tackling nonstandard word problems, skipping those that felt too challenging.

Recent Achievements

One Surrey Downs tutor noted a Year 10 student who used to second-guess her answers is now trusting her instincts and checking her work more often, even taking the initiative to complete extra homework outside school.

Another high schooler, initially shy in physics sessions, started asking questions independently and celebrated a strong test result that really boosted her motivation.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who was hesitant about reading aloud now self-corrects spelling mistakes and read an entire chapter of The Faraway Tree during their session without prompting.

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 City of Tea Tree Gully Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Surrey Downs Primary School.
