The single most important aspect for a tutor is to be able to keep the student's attention; losing their focus implicates the loss of any further progress in the topic at hand and their faith in how much you can help them as a mentor. Maintaining their concentration throughout the duration of the session, while tiring at times, pays off. I believe…

Build up confidence to believe that the respective student can succeed. Confidence is the most important thing that a student should have. Without having confidence student will not commit to do studies. I think i can understand students very well. Whether they understand or not can be observed by their actions. So when I understand that they have…

Inside BarraboolTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Eliza practiced comparing and ordering fractions with the same denominator and interpreted real-world fraction scenarios, then quickly grasped converting between millimetres and centimetres using a unit conversion table.

In Year 10, Austin focused on planning text responses for English (including The Crucible) and worked through a biology chapter check-up, tackling key concepts together.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Jamie revised methods of counting in discrete probability distributions for maths and reviewed chemical and physical properties of water in chemistry by working through relevant practice questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 English, one student hesitated to begin essays and often "got stuck starting a text response," making it harder to structure arguments under timed conditions.

In VCE English, another found it difficult to trust their initial ideas—second-guessing led to less fluent paragraph writing and more stress during SACS.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student in Biology struggled to adapt when exam questions used unfamiliar wording; as noted, "she did fall into traps laid out by examiners regarding practice questions."

In Year 7 Maths, messy or incomplete working meant division steps were left out, causing confusion when reviewing errors later.

Recent Achievements

A Barrabool tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to hesitate with text responses now confidently drafts strong introductions and conclusions, even planning essay bodies independently—something he previously avoided.

In Year 10 biology, one student picked up complex immunity concepts on the spot and could answer gene technology questions without earlier revision, showing new self-reliance.

Meanwhile, a primary school student who once needed help for every step in long division now completes all practice problems with high accuracy and rarely asks for guidance. Last session, she finished an entire worksheet without any errors or prompts.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We asked for assistance on a short term basis to help with some exam preparation.  Our tutor was quickly able to assess our daughter's capability and provide practical assistance with problem solving and techniques. Most importantly the tutor instilled real confidence in our daughter's ability, offering encouragement, support and reinforcement all the way.  We would not hesitate to contact Ezy Math for our future needs.

We are very happy with the tutoring work that Adedayo has done with Harrison so far. He has quickly formed a great rapport with Harrison and are they working very well together. Adedayo has been very encouraging and has managed to give Harrison confidence in his abilities even though they have only had a few sessions together. Harrison looks forward to his tutoring and has positive approach to sitting down and working with Adedayo. We look forward to continuing the tutoring arrangements and positive outcomes for Harrison.

We are very happy with Aurelius, he has turned something that was "like another language" (according to Aaron) into something he understands and has found his first test easy. We intend to hold onto Aurelius for as long as he wants to coach Aaron.

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 Highton Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Ceres Primary School.
