The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is help them to understand that the concepts and techniques they are learning are much less frightening and overwhelming when they are boiled down and simplified into manageable components. When tackling a problem, the more aspects we don't understand, the more likely we are to panic and deem…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to make sure there is continual improvement in their work. If there are signs the student is not improving, then it's important to look for weaknesses or anything the student is struggling with and work on those areas. I know at uni, and when I was at school, the feeling of understanding…

A tutor can change a student's life in ways more than one. She can help them find their confidence. She can, also, help them believe in themselves and encourage them to ask questions they have been scared to ask in their classes. A tutor can help a student overcome their fears and help them improve. Apart from helping the students achieve their…

I touched on some of these points in my previous answers, but as a tutor I believe the ultimate goal should be to provide one's students with an academic toolbox in the form of an understanding of the fundamental principles of any given topic. By covering first principles, and providing students with problem-solving abilities, he or she can then…

I definitely think that there needs to be a solid understanding of the student and the way in which they learn so that the tutor can teach them in a way which is most effective to them. Along with this, I think that the tutor should make the student feel comfortable with them so that they feel free to ask questions or ask for further…

The student should excel and learn more. Gained unique abilities or skills on how to handle certain math problems, and as the student excels he learns the way of his/her own.

On top of efficiently solving problems, a tutor should be able to explain to the students why it is that they are doing what they are doing. A tutor should explain why are they studying a particular topic in mathematics and what is its application. Finally, a tutor should be able to make the student enjoy what they are doing and make students look…

The most important you can do for a student is to know their abilities and work their capabilities to make them better at the subject they're trying to get better at. It is also important to understand every student is different and not all of them can grapple a concept quickly. But as a tutor, I must make sure I am accounting for each students…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to motivate him/her. Students look at tutors or mentors as their future or they get inspired by them very easily.

So far I have found several factors that make for good tutors. Firstly building a strong and personal relationship with the student is very important as the more connected a student feels to his or her tutor, the more the tutor can add essential ingredients for students to learn and grow. Secondly, communication and collaboration with the student,…

Not just tutor them, but be a friend. By opening up and developing a closer bond to students, the students feel more comfortable and it doesn't become a tutoring session, but just a study session.

As far as my understanding, as a tutor, he/she always needs to motivate their students to think more widely and creatively. It is true, initially, they will fail several times. Allowing them to do it, will build their confidence for their future, which will be eventually worth it for their life. As a tutor, I am always friendly, patiently try to…

He is a brilliant person, and before he worked for Ezymath, he mentored, coached and trained my kids to so well that they basically improved academically. Great tutor indeed.

Inside AuchenflowerTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Anna worked through fractions and number properties, using visual models to compare values.

Year 8 student Lucas focused on algebraic expressions and practiced solving simultaneous equations step by step.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Chloe revised trigonometry and bearings, including calculating unknown sides in right-angled triangles and applying angle rules to navigation scenarios.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often completed questions quickly but didn't reread them, leading to misinterpretations—he needs to read questions carefully and slowly to prevent easy errors.

In Year 11, another student hesitated to write out working for matrix multiplication, sometimes relying on memory instead of process, which made it hard to trace mistakes.

A Year 10 student struggled with motivation, only continuing tasks after reminders; their focus waned after each question was finished.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student's written work became difficult to follow in multi-step division problems, making it tricky for anyone else (or themselves) to check their reasoning later.

Recent Achievements

One Auchenflower tutor noted a Year 9 student who previously rushed through algebra now takes time to show each step, even voluntarily writing out their working when solving equations.

In a recent high school science session, a Year 11 student who once hesitated to interpret motion graphs is now reading and explaining them with less prompting—choosing appropriate axes labels without help.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner who would avoid asking questions about fractions has started voicing uncertainties aloud before tackling new problems. Last week, she finished all her fraction addition tasks independently for the first time.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are delighted with Charlie as Gabrielle's tutor. He has been prompt, polite, pleasant and extremely helpful. Within 2 sessions I could see her confidence in attacking problem solving questions had improved and approach to Maths in general.

Tammy is great.  She has a friendly manner and she is enthusiastic at every session. Lucy seems to like her and she has some great methods for teaching.  She engages Lucy and makes the sessions fun and interesting bringing things along to help Lucy understand what she is trying to teach her.  She is concentrating on what Lucy's weaknesses are while thinking ahead for Lucy for year 7. From  my observations of the sessions I think she will help Lucy enormously. I am very happy with Tammy to date and hope that she is happy to continue on with Lucy

Ezy Maths Tutoring really helped my daughter progress both her knowledge and enjoyments of Maths. Her progress has been amazing and she has looked forward to her weekly session with her tutor. The tutor connected really well with my daughter and was able to build her confidence. I am sure that she will now find the transition to high school much easier with her improved skills in 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 Toowong Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Toowong State School.
