I believe that the greatest affect that a good tutor can do for a student is to infatuate the student into the subject, meaning to truly engage and interest the student in the topic. Once this happens the student will grow a love for the subject, leading them to career paths regarding this subject. This will more importantly grow a work ethic for…

Harrison is extremely well mannered and diligent. He will often give his own time to ensure that Kate understands before he leaves. He is patient, calm and has lots of great strategies to simplify and explain maths and my daughters maths marks have improved. Thank you so much Harrison.

Inside PaddingtonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Alex worked through final exam revision, tackling two worksheets with a focus on resolving specific questions that had caused confusion in class.

For Year 10, Olivia spent the lesson practising algebraic operations involving fractions and completing school homework problems to reinforce her understanding.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Priya concentrated on calculus topics such as rates of change and differentiation using first principles and the power rule, applying these methods to textbook exercises.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Mathematics, a student hesitated to show full working when tackling trigonometric identities—she tried to do steps mentally, but small sign errors crept in, noted the tutor.

For a Year 4 learner, forgetting to bring math books from school meant key division homework was incomplete and revision suffered.

In Year 9, one student's layout in problem-solving tasks made their reasoning hard to follow; answers were present, but skipped lines caused confusion when reviewing mistakes.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student lost track of older concepts while focusing only on new material, leading to gaps during mixed-topic tests.

Recent Achievements

One Paddington tutor noticed a Year 9 student who used to quietly guess on difficult algebra questions now speaking up when stuck and asking for hints, which helped her finish the worksheet with only two errors.

A senior student who previously mixed up integration rules was able to clearly explain which formula fit each problem, working through a full set of calculus questions without needing reminders.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who hesitated to start homework independently has begun tackling spelling lists right away, even double-checking tricky words before the session 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 Brisbane Square Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Petrie Terrace State School.
