Portal Tutoring FAQ

Portal is a first-person puzzle game that heavily features physics components. The player controls Chell, a silent character that is the subject of scientific tests conducted by Aperture Science. Spurred on by the taunting of GLaDOS, or Genetic Lifeform and Disk Operating System, Chell must complete each puzzle in the hopes of earning cake at the end of it all. Puzzles must be completed using the company's handheld portal device. Puzzles may require that the player imagine different perspectives of the same room in order to pass through each chamber, a skill that is useful in many other areas of life. One-on-one Portal tutoring can help your child strengthen their abilities and apply these skills to their education. Varsity Tutors can help you get in touch with an instructor who can work alongside you.

Learning to play the game with a Portal tutor can allow students to focus on a variety of concepts, such as:

  • Newton's laws of physics
  • Kinetic energy
  • Creative problem solving
  • Spatial orientation

Portal can give your child the opportunity to explore physics, math, language arts, and other academic areas through a hands-on and engaging activity. Portal tutoring can help your child build their understanding of the narrative on a deeper level. Their tutor can ask them questions about the storyline and plot, as well as encourage them to consider their character's decisions' impact on the game. Your child's Portal tutor can use the game to demonstrate math concepts like parabolas, statistics, data collection, and more. Your child can use the game to solve math problems, as well as practice their ability to solve complex problems.
