Engineering Studies Tutor Mawson Lakes, SA
I believe 'Patience' is the most important thing. A tutor should be patient to assure the understanding of students into a problem by repeating the explanation or asking related questions. If students still don't understand, the tutor should be patient to change the teaching method and develop an effective explanation until they understand the…

One of the most important things that a tutor can do for their student is to understand where they do and do not lack in understanding. One way to think of it is like a flower. When nurturing it is important to give it the right amount of water, light and nutrients so that it can grow. If any of these needs is lacking or given an excess it can…

Asking questions is essential when learning and can be the difference between a student succeeding or failing in a subject. So, the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to create a supportive and encouraging environment where students are comfortable enough to ask questions. Moreover, I think a good tutor should identify gaps in…

You might be the one to direct a student towards the right and just route that leads to fulfilment and success. You might be able to inspire a student to follow their area of…

Inside Torrens IslandTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Maddison worked on reviewing multiplication, division, and the **gradient formula**, including going over her recent indices quiz to identify mistakes.

Year 11 student Emily focused on applying **differentiation to kinematics problems** and finding equations of tangents to curves using examples from motion scenarios.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Jack tackled statistics topics such as **confidence intervals** and applications of integration in linear motion problems, with extra practice on interpreting slope through real-world data.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student worked through calculus questions but hesitated to simplify expressions before applying differentiation or integration rules, leading to confusion mid-problem. In one case, as noted, "she wasn't sure whether to expand brackets before integrating, which muddled her answer."

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student arrived without her word list or homework—spelling practice was disrupted and recent words weren't reviewed.

Another senior student forgot upcoming test dates and struggled to organize revision materials; she realized too late that missed planning left gaps in coverage.

During primary spelling exercises, difficulty fitting longer words into boxes led to repeated erasing and lost focus.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Torrens Island recently noticed a Year 11 student catching her own mistakes while working through calculus questions, backchecking her answers with a calculator instead of waiting for help—a big shift from needing constant reassurance before.

In Year 8 maths, another student who used to rush and forget "carried" numbers has started double-checking their work independently, making fewer errors and explaining their thinking out loud during sessions.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who once hesitated to read aloud now volunteers to tackle longer books and even moved up four reading levels after persistent practice.

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 West Lakes Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like North Haven School.
