From personal experience, I have had a few unfair and unsatisfactory experiences with tutors throughout my schooling journey. As a result, I have learnt from those experiences and structured my services in regards to having the student as the main focus.

Expanding on what I have written earlier, I think that one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is be prepared, and always willing to learn. I think this requires being a bit humble, and accepting that, even with something that may appear to be far below the tutor's learning, there may still be things that aren't known or have…

I think that a tutor must be patient and remain composed with each student. A tutor is meant to be that person whose teaching is tailored, so it requires an individualized approach, picked up and constantly adjusted as needs change and develop. I have (as told to me by all my ever-suffering associates) a 'wild' vocabulary, and for English…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to believe in them. Students already have bounds of pressure heaped on them, academic, parental, administrative, personal, etc. and sometimes all it takes is one Calculus question to bring them to their wit's end. A tutor must support their students throughout their learning journey and…

Local Reviews

Stephan has been tutoring my daughter for a couple of years now. He is approachable, professional and excellent tutor. Eliza has gained and maintained her confidence in Maths which is especially important in Year 12. Stephan helped her transition to Zoom tutoring last year when he couldn't come to our house and this was so successful they continued their sessions remotely. I highly recommend Stephan!

Inside Kensington ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Priya focused on coordinate geometry by calculating midpoints and exploring perpendicular gradients, as well as starting linear equations using the Cartesian plane.

Year 10 student Marcus worked through solving simultaneous equations and applied perimeter and area calculations to geometry problems, often using diagrams to clarify each step.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Emily reviewed bivariate statistics by interpreting residual plots and practising exponential regression techniques for her upcoming assignment.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11, one student was hesitant to seek clarification on assignment requirements and needed reminders to double-check with the teacher, which left him "a bit unsure about his assignment."

A Year 10 learner preparing for a test struggled with keeping written work neat when copying matrices, making errors more likely during revision.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student occasionally forgot essential materials like a notebook or calculator, which disrupted focus during sessions.

In Year 7 geometry, skipping labels and units while finding area sometimes led to confusion over which formula to use.

Recent Achievements

A Kensington Park tutor noticed Armando, a senior student, has shifted from hesitating on normal distribution questions to tackling them with real independence—he even reviewed his B+ practice exam and pinpointed exactly where he could improve.

In Year 10, Alia started off unsure about approaching new problems but now tackles worksheets on her own before asking for help only when stuck, and she recently previewed surds confidently after solid trigonometry results.

Meanwhile, a younger student who once mixed up shapes can now quickly name different polygons and explain which sides are equal 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 Burnside Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Marryatville Primary School.
