I believe that helping the student truely understand the unit or content they are struggling with is important. However, I also believe that self achievement is important. Not all students are going to get A's, but if I can help them achieve their personal goals, then I consider it a job well done.
Making the student feel accomplished and clever,…
- Definitely help them understand concepts and how to excel in the subject, allow them to have more confidence and enjoy learning
- understand the student struggles, encourage them that they are capable
- Finding the best ways for them to learn, and the things they are good at - so they can do well in those areas I am patient and understanding,…
1) Give the student their space to think, allow them the time to process what you are saying.
2) Don't allow students to just sit and listen get them actively involved.
3) Build a rapport with the student whilst maintaining the professional boundary.
4) Bring an enthusiastic and positive attitude even when its a difficult session.

To ensure the student feels that they can ask any question (relatable preferably) and not feel that is a "silly question". I also think it is important to ensure the tutor has a plan/ is organised so that the student too knows that is the plan/ aims and goals that are being set. I am compassionate when teaching, I like to make the student feel…
Good grades would be the obvious answer. However, if I can spark an interest in the subject for the student the grades will logically follow. A strength would definitely be communication, I find that I can easily get my point across eloquently. I also take pride in my etiquette and friendliness. A weakness that I can see being an issue is lesson…
I consider the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to make them believe in themselves, bring them confidence, and to equip them with the necessary tools to do better/their best in their studies. I believe my strengths as a tutor are:
My positivity. I always encourage students to keep learning even when things get hard. I let…
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is guide them towards building self-esteem, confidence in themselves and ensure that when the tuition is over the student is able to recall the hours with the tutor and so be able to work through new challenging material by themselves. I am an incredibly dedicated and enthusiastic individual,…
I believe one of the most important thing would be to build a student's confidence, teaching them to feel positive about themselves. Perhaps the student feels incapable of solving problems,despite possessing the ability. Thus, it is a tutor's duty to show students that they are capable and believe in themselves.
It is also important that the…
It is a necessity for a tutor to establish rapport with their students. As a proponent of a theory in rapport for learners, it is important that the student and teacher must sense each other, sync in their teaching and learning process and experience an affirming positive experience while educating. I am very creative in teaching my students. I…
Create a bond with the student in order for the student to actually like to learn more.
Practice is a key in certain topics.
Relating certain topics to real life examples is very beneficial too. I am friendly and manage to find easy ways to explain and deliver a certain topic to a…
I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is provide them with a relaxed and stress free learning environment. Often when a student isn't good at a particular subject they are afraid to ask questions or express their opinion. I think as a tutor it is essential to be able to be approachable, friendly and a good listener. I think…
As a tutor, I believe it is crucial to understand the exact knowledge gap a student may have and helping them by clarifying the root of their doubt. I did Methods and Specialist ATAR, and the roots of my doubts went to the basics - I think the fundamental area to work on for success is proficiency in the basics, which ensures any advancement from…
As I said in the previous questions, the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is instilling the importance of Math and Science to everyday lives. Sharing knowledge to them and consequently, providing reasons why they should love the subjects is one of your measures to be a successful tutor. For me, a good tutor is not only teach the…
The most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is help them grow in their own fashion by building their confidence. Arranging a lesson plan where the student will feel fulfilled in their studies while also feeling connected with the subject is important as well but without motivating the student to grow in the first place, it may all…
I believe that a tutor should be encouraging, and help each student excel in their own unique way, as not every student has the same way of learning. I am able to explain concepts well, and am a patient and warm person. I encourage mistakes as without them, there would be no opportunity to learn. I am also a last year Neuroscience student in UWA,…

- Provide support

I believe i am skilled in breaking down complex…
A tutor must build two things in a student: confidence and knowledge. A tutor develops confidence in a student by simplifying the learning process. Through tips and shortcuts, the student will confidently answer questions. The tutor also expands the student's knowledge by providing exposure to different learning materials. With these both, the…
The most important thing a tutor can do for their student is to show them that they have great potential, as well as leave them with invaluable lessons that they will call upon throughout the rest of their education journey. - I am young and I am a very social person, which means that building a rapport with young students comes very…
A tutor can understand the personalized way of learning for each student and deliver a different experience altogether in the process. I am extremely articulate. I explain concepts clearly and my fundamentals are sharp and…
I think students would appreciate when tutors can find a suitable and effective style of elaborating problem-solving methods to them, and then further gain the ability to solve similar questions without additional help. I am very patient and enthusiastic about helping students figure out solutions to questions. I can also offer remote tutoring…
I would certainly recommend Ezymath to prospective students. Having a tutor who is close in location and able to work at developing a relationship with each individual student can greatly assist students in discovering how to succeed in maths. I would also strongly recommend Ezymath's professional development activities and CEP modules to other prospective tutors. I have appreciated the important learning lessons within the CEP modules and have applied this to my tutoring and used it to help my students.
It has also been fantastic to develop relationships with my students and their parents over the past year and a half. In this time I have seen my students grow personally and academically. One particular grade 7 student I have seen progress from low B's to high A's within the time I have been tutoring him. However, my greatest achievement during the time I have been tutoring is to have helped my two current students to realise just how much hard work they need to put in to do their very best with maths. Both of these students have seen considerable improvements in their results as we have developed habits such as regularly completing revision quizzes, developing key memory pegs & triggers to remember strategies and rules.
Once my students discovered that practicing such techniques and putting in so much regular revision time improved their results, they were more motivated and determined to continue putting in such efforts to keep improving their marks.
Tutoring with Ezymaths has been a great experience for me. When I joined two years ago I thought I wouldn't last the first month let alone the next two years. It's amazing how organised the company is and how much help you receive as a new tutor. I joined the company to earn some extra cash and the benefits of learning about teaching were a bonus. Ezymath tutoring is a network of students, teachers and tutors who share information to improve the way we teach our children. Every student has a different way of learning and learns at a different pace. The benefit of gaining a tutor through a company means there is no single mind teaching your child. The collective advice and experience of the tutors within the company allows us to teach your children in the most effective possible manner. I personally have gained great experience to put on my resume and nothing is more pleasing there to see a child improve their education and confidence to push themselves further in life. If you are considering a position at the company or just looking for some extra help for your child you won't find a better class of trained tutors.
My experience with ezymaths was one like a rollercoaster that ended on a high note. What's special about ezymaths is that you will find support and there will be teaching material and teaching strategies available if you get stuck. Overall, as a tutor, you will learn a lot more than you will expect.
