In my opinion, it is important to teach children in simple ways so that they can understand even the complex and difficult concepts. It is also important to understand questions asked by students and give appropriate answers to their questions. Students need to be acknowledged and respected. As a tutor, I am a patient person and a good listener. I…

The most important things are to give the student: 1. an appreciation of the beauty of the subject, 2. a strong link between the theory and practical, real-world applications, and 3. the ability to problem solve independently. I'm patient, enthusiastic, and good at zeroing in on exactly what it is the student doesn't understand, and then leading…

The most important thing is to probably instead of spoonfeeding the information to the student, communicate the importance of practice, discipline and routine. Moreover, to guide them along with their curiosity instead of just giving them questions to do. I think my adaptability would be useful for fields that I might not be as experienced at. My…

I think understanding each student is an important part to tutoring, and being able to motivate each student into learning for themselves should be the ultimate goal for any teacher. I've had some teachers that did that for me and I have them remembered always. I think students would like me. I'm easygoing and try to make the content appealing,…

I believe the most important goal for a tutor is to give their students the tools they need to succeed. Tutoring is not only giving test answers, but rather, providing the tools and insight each an every person needs to overcome their unique challenges. I don't force my style of learning unto others. Instead, I try to recognize what each student…

For it's most important for a tutor or mentor to encourage asking. You won't know anything unless you ask for it. More importantly, this builds a person's confidence, which is especially helpful in succeeding. My strengths as a tutor are patience and perseverance. I do not stop until the end goal is achieved. I persist as necessary to succeed, not…

A tutor should understand the need of a student. A tutor should make a effort to reach the student and understand what the need. If a student is falling behind we as tutors need to understand the reason behind that.

A good tutor will be able to make a connection with their student, and can understand their individual needs as a learner. I think that if a tutor isn't able to do this, then any knowledge they possess can't be effectively taught. I think a good tutor should also have a strong grasp over whatever they teach, and being able to teach is the biggest…

Inside Gordon ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Emily worked through applying Pythagoras' Theorem to complex shapes and revisited how to prove the theorem using diagrams.

In Year 10, Noah focused on factorising both monic and non-monic quadratic equations as well as solving them with step-by-step algebraic methods.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Alex tackled constant acceleration problems in linear motion and reviewed thermal equilibrium concepts in physics, using real-world scenarios to deepen understanding.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 Physics student struggled with manipulating equations for heat and energy—"swapping denominators and quotients" caused confusion, which slowed progress in qmcΔt calculations.

In Year 8, a student's working was often hard to follow; as one tutor noted, "legibility and setting out of working" made it difficult to spot calculation errors during algebra tasks.

A Year 10 learner repeatedly avoided homework, saying they "could not find book," so new concepts in trigonometry remained shaky week-to-week.

In English (Year 12), research assignments stalled when evidence wasn't evaluated or sources properly organized, leaving introductions unfinished and arguments unclear.

Recent Achievements

A Gordon Park tutor recently noticed a Year 10 student who previously hesitated to ask questions now reads worded maths problems aloud and talks through each step before attempting answers, showing more self-direction.

In a senior session, one student's marks jumped in their latest practice exam after weeks of struggling with non-monic quadratic factorisation—now tackling these confidently without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 learner, who used to rush and make errors when calculating surface areas, now pauses to identify all shapes involved and correctly substitutes measurements before moving on.

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 Grange Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Padua College.
