Modern History Tutor Robertson, QLD
I think that a tutor should help foster understanding of difficult concepts so that the student is able to do the work themselves, rather than doing the work for them. Additionally, going over the work with them, and showing them how they can improve is important. Ensuring that they understand ways they can get better helps more than telling them,…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to encourage them, create an environment that supports their needs, and push them just enough to allow them to understand they can do it themselves. My key strengths are definitely my persistence, patience, attention to detail, and my ability to encourage those around…

Help them reach their full potential without doing all the work for them; I think it is important to let them do some hard work now and again so they can appreciate it more when they are congratulated for their success, and so that they are not 'coddled' into thinking other people will do all their work for them. Some of my strengths would…

The moist important thing a tutor can do for their student is help the student come to their own understanding of the content and presenting the content in a more 'digestible' way. I have a wide range on knowledge on a variety of topics that would be of use as a tutor. Also as I have experience at university, I believe that I would have relevant…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is being able to teach the student skills that can help them to utilise those skills not only in that particular topic but throughout their subjects. For example, showing a student to skim read to help them not only in English but in other subjects such as Modern History, Geography, Physics…

The most important thing as a tutor is to be there for your student, not only academically but mentally and emotionally as well. I want my students to feel like they can ask me for advice on subjects that may not pertain to their education, but I want them to also feel like they can come to me for help when it comes to their academics as well.…

Teach them that true knowledge comes in understanding concepts and how they apply in real life, not just memorisation of assessed components. Knowledge becomes much more appealing and simple when you understand why you need it. I am very good at teaching maths concepts and chemistry specififically. Generally I feel I am good at understanding my…

Children would prefer a friendly environment where they can feel comfortable enough to ask questions and let the tutor know that they don't understanding anything. Students should be able to discuss thing with the tutor so that they can grasp the knowledge in the manner they want. I am very confident and I have a lots of patience when children…

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.
