Online Tutor Salisbury, QLD
I think a tutor can give a student confidence, that a student doesn't need to be intimidated by a STEM class. The general attitude that these subject are 'too hard' or that a student 'will never use these skills again' sets up bright students for failure before they even set foot in a classroom. The most important thing a tutor can do is boost a…

I really liked the style of teaching. I can understand well with her.

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.
