The most important part about a tutor is making sure the student understands what they are teaching them. Since every student's way of learning is different, the tutor must be able to adapt to fit those needs. This is why a classroom is a bad environment since not all students reach their full capabilities. But this is why tutoring is perfect…

Not only academic but also personal growth is what I consider most important. While academic improvement is a key focus and often a priority for students and their parents, I believe fostering curiosity and building confidence should be integral to the teaching process. Tutors and teachers play a vital role in nurturing students, helping them grow…

Local Reviews

I really liked the style of teaching. I can understand well with her.
Fareha Omar, Parkinson

Inside ParkinsonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Ed revised long division, converting between improper and mixed fractions, and worked through BOMDAS problems with multiple operations.

Year 11 student Ruby focused on surface area and volume of composite 3D shapes, alongside revision of linear word problems and properties of parallel and perpendicular lines using equations.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Grace tackled bivariate data analysis for an assignment, discussing how to interpret relationships in scatterplots and practice final drafting skills for her mathematics project.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student received detailed assignment feedback in Math Methods but left several required graphs and proportional analysis incomplete; the tutor noted, "the assignment still requires a lot of improvement."

In Physics (Year 12), formatting and quality of evidence needed significant attention before submission.

For a Year 5 learner, repeated attempts to solve maths problems mentally led to frequent mistakes—"Ed tries to do everything in his head," wrote one tutor—which slowed progress when converting fractions or tackling long division.

A Year 8 student's diagrams in geometry were often hard to interpret due to cramped layouts, making it difficult to track which angle labels belonged where.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Parkinson noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who, after weeks of struggling with derivatives, now works through basic differentiation independently and rarely needs reminders about the rules.

In senior Physics, one student recently handed in an improved assignment draft, having clearly used the previous session's feedback to refine his explanations and show deeper understanding—a real change from earlier drafts that missed key points.

Meanwhile, in Year 5, Ed is finally tackling long division solo; he catches and corrects most mistakes himself without waiting for hints.

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 Sunnybank Hills Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Calamvale Community College.
