About Panduka

About Me – Your Expert Maths, Physics & Mechanical Engineering Tutor

Kia ora!

I’m Panduka, a passionate and highly experienced tutor specializing in Mathematics, Physics, and Mechanical Engineering. I hold a First-Class Master of Engineering (Hons) from Auckland University of Technology, along with a Washington Accord–accredited Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering.

Teaching has always been a part of my academic and professional journey. Over the years, I’ve taught students from Year 4 to university level, across New Zealand and internationally. I currently tutor through Kiwi English Academy, Kip McGrath and some other few institutes. I tutor privately through Superprof, where I proudly maintain a 4.9/5 rating based on student success and satisfaction.

What I Teach

Mathematics (Primary– Year13, NCEA Levels 1–3, All Topics)
Physics (Primary– Year13, All Topics)
Mechanical Engineering (BSc, Diploma & Higher Diploma levels)
– Engineering Mechanics
– Thermodynamics
– Fluid Mechanics
– Strength of Materials
– Mechanical Design
– Engineering Software (e.g., SolidWorks, Autocad)

My Teaching Approach

I believe that real understanding comes from clarity, not memorization. My lessons are:

Concept-focused – breaking down complex ideas into simple, clear explanations
Highly interactive – step-by-step reasoning, real-world examples, visual explanations
Confidence-building – helping students overcome fear of difficult subjects
Structured & personalized – tailored lesson plans for each learner’s level and goals
Assessment-ready – exam strategies, practice questions, and progress feedback

Whether you’re catching up, pushing for excellence, or preparing for assessments, I can help you get there.

Why Students Choose Me

Friendly, patient, and easy to understand
Strong engineering background gives depth to Maths & Physics explanations
Consistent track record of improving grades and boosting confidence
Flexible with scheduling
Clear communication with both students and parents

Let’s Work Together

If you’re looking for a tutor who cares about your success and makes learning enjoyable, I’d love to help you achieve your goals.

Send me a message and let’s begin your journey toward stronger skills, better grades, and real confidence in Maths, Physics, or Engineering!

About the lesson

About the Lesson – Physics

My Physics lessons support students from Year 9 to Year 13, including NCEA Levels 1–3, and are designed to make complex ideas understandable and relatable.

I teach all core areas of school Physics, including:

Mechanics (motion, forces & energy)

Electricity & electromagnetism

Waves & optics

Heat, matter & thermodynamics

NCEA internal and external exam preparation

Homework support, lab concepts, and practice questions

Every lesson is:
Concept-driven – building deep understanding, not just memorising formulas
Step-by-step – simplifying tricky ideas through clear explanation
Practical and real-world – linking theory to engineering, technology & everyday life
Confidence-focused – encouraging curiosity, questions and problem solving

I help students master the fundamentals early, so more advanced topics feel natural and achievable. We work through examples, diagrams, and exam-style questions together until everything clicks.

Whether you find Physics challenging or you’re pushing for excellence, I tailor the learning to your pace and help you build the mindset of a confident science thinker.

My daughter is in Year 8, and she used to struggle a lot with math. She relied on short methods and memorization, which didn’t really help her understand the subject. But Panduka changed that! He explained the concepts clearly and focused on building a strong foundation. Now, she’s improving and gaining confidence in math. We’re so grateful for his support. I really recommend him.
