A tutor can engender a sense of self respect and a more positive attitude in students. They have the ability to increase their confidence in specific education subjects in a very competitive world. I believe tutors are able to lift the self esteem of students and remove that extra stress from the every day school life Being able to relate to the…

Not all the students learn in the same way. A tutor must discover which is the best way to reach the students and be able to explain thing in a way they fully understand. I'm a patient person and creative to find alternatives ways to explain things when students don't…

Results. It doesn’t matter if the class is funny (I think it’s better if you can do it in this way) if you don’t get results. Just adapt to each student to get the best of him. I'm able to empathize with the student and work together to find a…

Being supportive. Every student is different and has a different way of catching and understanding things, you just have to be patient and supportive. I feel like growing up most teachers were boring, and could not deliver the concept or usefulness of the things that were being taught. So when I teach I make sure I deliver not only the concepts…

Inspire them. Anyone can regurgitate textbook material in a different way. But only few can truly educate and inspire their students to become the very best version of themselves. Some of the strengths that I believe are quite necessary for a tutor other than leadership are resilience, and the ability to properly analyse a students learning…

A tutor is not a person who make students to gulp everything on the book. A tutor should know where the focus should be given. Knowing their capacity and weak areas should be the first step a tutor have to step into when a student approach for help. Once the foundation is made strong, it will be easy to build over it. Along with that, a tutor…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is being able to empathise and put themselves in the shoes of their pupil. This allows the tutor to help the student more effectively and create a better connection which will facilitate the learning process. I have very strong fundamentals in the subjects I tutor, therefore, I am able to…

We were lucky enough to get Christopher to help my son with his math. He was exceptional! Explained everything in easy to understand terms and helped to make sense of the math problems. Thank you

Inside Highland ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student India focused on recognising and working with fractions, and also practised telling time on an analogue clock using hands-on worksheets.

Year 10 student Jade reviewed algebra skills such as solving equations and then applied Pythagoras' theorem to exam-style questions for extra practice.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Lisa worked through biology topics including calculating Simpson's Diversity Index for biodiversity and interpreting results within real forest ecosystems, using examples from her assignment.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student working on biology assignments relied heavily on online sources, rather than a mix of scientific articles and textbooks; this narrowed her research depth ("needed to confirm with the teacher if there were articles specific to the research question").

In Year 8 maths, one student struggled with layout—forgetting signs and not writing out all working made tracking mistakes difficult.

During a Year 5 lesson, another avoided attempting challenging subtraction questions, hesitating before giving an answer. This pause slowed progress, especially when new methods or recall were needed in timed settings.

Recent Achievements

One Highland Park tutor noticed a big shift with Jade (Year 8) in maths: after some reminders on area formulas, she was able to tackle the volume and trickier shapes by herself by lesson's end—something she'd previously hesitated to attempt alone.

In senior biology, Lisa has started actively investigating answers when unsure, rather than waiting for hints, showing much more independence compared to her earlier sessions.

Meanwhile, India (Year 3) surprised her tutor during an addition card game; she completed the sums faster and more accurately than ever before, using the right technique throughout.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Cara is very happy with Ishwarya as her tutor. They have an easy, productive working relationship already after only three weeks, Cara was comfortable with Ishwarya after the first week.

William is excited as he is learning more with Bailey than with his math's teacher. Baileys methods are easy to follow and very helpful. Bailey is always on time and puts in 110%. After every session, you can see the smile on William's face and his new found confidence. We are very impressed and very lucky to have Bailey tutor William.

Wen is fantastic! Jack is very happy with the tutoring so we would like to continue with her.

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 Helensvale Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like William Duncan State School.
