Biology Tutor
I personally think, the most important things a tutor can do for a student is giving them clear explanations, boost students motivation and engage them in learning and offer constructive and useful feedbacks. Providing a concise and understandable explanations of complex topics and concepts is certainly an important requirement for a tutor,…

Local Reviews

The whole process was very easy. Jacques is a wonderful tutor who has instilled a love of maths in my daughter. Something I thought I'd never see. I have recommended EzyMath Tutoring to many other parents like myself who were despairing over their child's poor results in the subject.

Inside Castaways BeachTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 Engineering student worked through bending moments and complex problems, broke down a folio using a truss calculator for design ideas, and explored circuit theory alongside some nuclear physics concepts.

For Year 12 Maths, the focus was on exponential probability distributions—including mean calculation using integration—and also revisited polynomial long division from Year 11 material.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Ryan tackled his maths assignment by applying percentages, ratios, and place value skills to develop a dinner menu for a party.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 Engineering student often hesitated to seek clarification from teachers about assignment expectations and relied heavily on provided resources, rather than independently developing ideas during the design and prototyping stages.

"He needs to go above and beyond in final sketches," one tutor observed, noting how this limited originality.

In Year 11, lesson time was lost due to disorganization and lack of clear planning—both in advance and during sessions—leaving coverage incomplete when lessons were cut short.

Meanwhile, a primary student's maths progress was slowed by messy handwriting, making it hard to follow their own calculations or review mistakes after practice questions.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Castaways Beach recently saw a Year 11 student, who previously hesitated to ask for help, now openly checking his own spelling and writing mistakes before submitting work.

In a senior maths session, another high schooler—once unsure about rearranging equations—quickly grasped how to find variables on her own and even started plotting points without guidance.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who used to rush through reading tasks took the time to sound out unfamiliar words aloud and asked thoughtful questions when uncertain. Last week, he finished his entire spelling list with no errors.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Michael came yesterday & is quite a competent & friendly boy whom Zoe worked quite well with.

We were very impressed with Jane, hopefully Saturdays are locked in each week to continue with tutoring.

Riley is extremely happy with Andre. My son tells me "this guy's great ! Every time I call him because I have a question, he answers !" So thank you.

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 Noosa Library Service—or at your child's school (with permission), like Sunshine Beach State High School.
