Ancient History Tutor
A tutor is more than just one that imparts knowledge. Any textbook, podcast or Youtube Video can do that. The power of a good tutor is in his or her ability to strengthen and encourage their students, so helping them gain some momentum to keep persevering in subjects that are challenging them. This means patiently helping the students understand…

Have been with Ezymath for about a month. Their admin is good in communication and managing the tutors. Our tutor has been reliable and is knowledgable on our son's subjects.

Inside ApplecrossTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Jack practised calculating area, length, and perimeter of shapes and worked through times tables for improved recall.

In Year 8, Ava explored linear equations before starting an investigation on parabolas, then compared pie charts with introductory algebra to build confidence in interpreting data.

Meanwhile, a Year 9 student reviewed test material covering measurements and percentages alongside calculations with equations and matrices, focusing on efficient problem-solving methods.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student working on matrices and data interpretation left several homework tasks incomplete, as noted: "didn't do homework," which meant less opportunity to clarify errors with mean, mode, and median.

In Year 8 algebra, test planning issues led to only 42% on a problem-solving assessment—time was spent re-checking calculations instead of moving forward.

A Year 4 student preparing for word problems often avoided writing out workings for subtraction and multiplication, erasing repeatedly when answers felt imperfect. In the moment, this made reviewing strategies difficult and slowed overall progress during lessons.

Recent Achievements

One Applecross tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to guess on statistics questions now carefully checks for the right graph—she can clearly explain when to use histograms versus box-and-whisker plots, which was a real sticking point before.

A Year 9 boy, after weeks of confusing mode and median, started pausing to double-check which measure fits each question, instead of rushing ahead and mixing them up.

In a younger session, a Year 4 girl who once hesitated with multi-digit addition solved two- and three-digit word problems independently and asked for more challenging sums at the end.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Thank you for the report. We are very happy with Kim's approach and way of teaching . Yejeena is very responsive to her and enjoying her learning. She has become more confident in school and starting to put her hand up to answer questions when her teacher asks questions from the the class. It seems to us that , Kim also is enjoying working with Yejee and very happy with Yejee's attitude toward her extra study hours after school.

Both Ashleigh and myself are very happy with Duncan. Ashleigh is already feeling much more confident and I believe that she will progress steadily.

Tutoring with Robert is going extremely well. Robert has an excellent way of explaining concepts and Tara and Ethan are already feeling more confident with their maths.

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 Civic Square Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Benedict's School.
