I believe that a good teacher will prioritise the mindset of their student(s) before attempting to actually teach them anything. To enter the flow state prior to gaining knowledge is, in my view, of utmost importance. A tutor should find a way to ensure that their student is enjoying the learning experience. One example is, rather than explaining…

The most important thing you can do for a student is usually to inspire them, as this is the number one key to success and personal growth for them in a subject, in my opinion. Allowing students to appreciate beauty and simplicity links the value of the topics to their work in it. Of course, some students are already very passionate so for them…

The most important thing that a physics tutor can do for a student is to engage the student in a way which makes them want to keep learning that specific subject if not fall in love with it. At the end of the day motivation must come from the student themself and as a tutor I believe it is my job to help the student find that motivation. I believe…

Inside GulliverTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Isaac focused on writing ionic and covalent compounds in Chemistry, including naming conventions and forming chemical equations.

Year 10 Sophia worked through simplifying index laws and applying the order of operations to various questions from a recent school test.

For Year 9 Eve, sessions addressed trigonometry questions and explored similarity and congruence concepts by reviewing past exam mistakes and discussing strategies for unfamiliar problems.

Recent Challenges

Several students across Years 3–12 showed process challenges impacting progress.

In Year 7, not completing assigned homework meant missed opportunities to reinforce concepts—"Sophia could not finish her HW," leading to repeated confusion in word problems and sign changes.

A Year 11 student struggled with resource organization; "he could not locate the most updated version of the assessment," so vital discussion time was lost to searching for files instead of deepening analysis.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student's trigonometry work revealed over-reliance on calculators without clear written steps, making it difficult to pinpoint errors when answers didn't match expectations.

Recent Achievements

One Gulliver tutor noticed a real shift with Jacinta in Year 11 English: she arrived to her session already armed with teacher feedback and a revised essay, showing far more initiative than earlier weeks when she waited for guidance.

In Year 10 Maths, Eve moved from partial attempts on trigonometry problems to independently tackling both familiar and complex questions after some targeted practice.

Meanwhile, during a Year 4 session, Sophia—who used to need extra help with division—solved several problems without prompting and even asked for harder ones before the lesson ended.

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 Citylibraries Aitkenvale—or at your child's school (with permission), like Currajong State School.
