A tutor should have empathy, only by being able to put yourself in somebody else's shoes can you understand the real problem and offer a solution. By building a strong foundation a maths tutor can help student realize his/her true potential. I think I know my subject well and importantly know how to make it look simple for my…

The most important thing a maths tutor can do for a student is to not only teach the material, but find a way to communicate it effectively. Learning is not only memorization but finding ways to understand and apply this knowledge. In my university course, as well as my experience with high school, we are taught to communicate our math and…

A tutor should not just teach, but they should listen to their students, seek feedback and use that to improve their teaching. It is important to develop trust with students so that they feel comfortable asking questions, expressing their concerns and identifying topics that they may want to strengthen. In doing so, the tutor can gain a greater…

I think one of the most important things a maths tutor can do for a student is be somewhat a friend rather than just an instructor or teacher.

The number one thing is being supportive and being there for the student no matter what. I believe having a shoulder to lean on that doesn't criticize but also has a slight push is crucial for a positive relationship between tutor and tutee.

Inside CollaroyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Anan focused on PEEL paragraph structure with an emphasis on crafting clear topic sentences, and analysed poetry by Auden.

Year 12 sessions included detailed comparative analysis of The Tempest and Hag-Seed for the Textual Conversations module, as well as composing creative responses that explored Atwood's reimagining of imprisonment themes.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student worked through algebraic equations and practiced interpreting functions and their graphs using real examples from recent homework.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 English, writing habits affected progress: planning was often skipped, leading to weak thesis statements and underdeveloped essay structure. One tutor noted, "He started essays without a clear plan, which made topic sentences vague."

In Year 9 Mathematics, over-reliance on finger counting for times tables slowed down complex multiplication; a student repeatedly paused during multi-step problems to count rather than recall.

Meanwhile, in Year 8 Science projects, translating research into presentation format proved challenging—notes were gathered but not organized into a final product.

Each instance left less time for deeper analysis or independent application of skills.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Collaroy noticed a Year 11 student who, after previously struggling to connect ideas in essays, now confidently links and explains her arguments using improved PEEL structures.

Another high school student made a noticeable leap by applying formulas independently to tackle complex area questions—something he found daunting just weeks ago.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who was hesitant to ask questions now enthusiastically seeks clarification and has begun tackling long multiplication without prompting.

Last session, she completed all her single-digit multiplication problems from memory and explained each step aloud.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We have been working with Emily since last year and so we are very happy with her.

Nicholas, our tutor, has been absolutely amazing and has a wonderful influence on on Mike. And you service is exceptional!

I think Velvet and Kirsten are starting to work well together. The book is really helpful to learn about the theories and what works in a practical sense.

Maths tutoring in Collaroy

Struggling academically while seeing others succeed can feel disheartening. It may seem as though "successful students" have it easy, as if solutions just pop into their head. Seeing the cycle of success cycling round and round for others can seem like natural talent. Geniuses do exist but most successful students are just normal people who have somehow learned how to succeed academically.

Good news! Success leaves clues. These students tend to be prepared, to do their homework & regular revision. They focus on comprehension not on memorization. Most importantly they have growth mindset not a fixed mindset - failures are an opportunity for growth not proof of inadequacy.

Whatever your goals, the right attitude and the right study habits will help. A good tutor can do much more than just teach the content. They can help your child learn to be a better student, to develop a growth mindset and establish their own cycle of success. When you use Ezy Math to find a tutor this is what you're getting.

A local maths tutor in Collaroy will come to your home at a time convenient to you, just tell us when. Your first lesson works as a risk-free trial, if you don't like it, don't pay. No booking fees or contracts, no nonsense, just tutoring.
