English Tutor Salisbury Heights, SA
As I alluded to earlier, I think the student's enjoyment is extremely important. That's not to say that they should be having fun at the expense of gaining knowledge, much the contrary; I think the best way for a student to gain knowledge that will last beyond the next test or exam is to have it conveyed in such a way that they take a genuine…

The most important thing would be to teach a student that studying shouldn't be a chore, and that giving it their all matters more than receiving a perfect grade. I understand that each student is different, and that not every approach will work for an individual, so it is essential that their tutor knows how to adapt to their needs while still…

I will consistently encourage all my students to always try, and practise, and try again, until they master whatever they were first struggling with. Their dreams become my dreams for them, so I will never let my students give up on reaching their goals. Improvements do not happen overnight, but whenever they do happen, no matter how small, I…

Primarily, a tutor needs to be a good listener. Listen the problems of an individual carefully and provide the solution. Tutor can be a mentor not only of the academic but can be a mentor of other emotional and mental problems. Patience is the baby step to become an effective tutor. Some children might need patience levels that may put me through…

The most important thing that a tutor for students is to allow them to work out answers for themselves. Of course, tutors should provide guidance, but they should not merely provide answers. Additionally, I feel that students must be allowed room to make mistakes. A tutor should not be one to apply too much pressure on a student, as too much force…

I think the best tutor is one who guides the students properly and fairly not only in their academics but also about life challenges. Most importantly a tutor should be ready to explain a single concept even 10 times to students if they are not able to get that without getting annoyed Well , I'm quite patient which I think is my biggest strength…

Inside VistaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Marley revised the area of sectors and surface area from Chapter 7, working through example questions together.

Year 8 student Ava focused on drawing linear graphs from y- and x-intercepts and practiced finding slope in preparation for more advanced graphing work.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Liam tackled perimeter and area of rectangles, triangles, mixed shapes, and circles, using visual aids to reinforce formulas.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10, one student struggled to enter formulas into a scientific calculator, leading to repeated confusion and hesitation during multi-step calculations; as noted, "he seemed confused about entering equations and formulas into his calculator."

A Year 9 student rarely wrote out working for algebra problems, preferring to do everything at once on the calculator—this hid mistakes with signs and fractions.

Meanwhile, a primary student's written work was difficult to follow due to inconsistent layout when solving sums.

For a senior class, forgetting to bring revision materials resulted in incomplete homework and missed opportunities for targeted practice before tests.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Vista recently saw Finlay, a high school student, tackle dividing terms with indices—he made several mistakes at first but by working through booklet questions, he began correcting errors on his own and finished the harder problems without needing help.

Marley, also in high school, used to hesitate when breaking down algebraic expressions but has started handling multi-step substitutions independently and follows BEDMAS accurately throughout.

Meanwhile, a younger student named George shifted from being unsure about unit conversions to quickly giving correct answers for perimeter problems after just a couple of examples.

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 St Agnes School P - 6.
