English Tutor Ettalong Beach, NSW
Implement creativity and a willingness to try is the most important skill an english tutor can pass on to their students. Once a student builds a willingness to try and a need to challenge themselves, they will be more likely to build good habits and routines around creating these pathways for themselves. I always ask myself 'how do students…

I believe the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is show genuine care for the student's learning. Additionally, having a passion for teaching is vital, because with no passion and care, the tutoring interactions with the student are inauthentic. My greatest strength as a tutor is being able to change the way I explain a…

As an english tutor/educator the most important factor to foster with your student is that you are honest and patient. Each student develops at their own pace. My strengths include: *I have found that working with special needs students has helped me to become a more compassionate and patient educator. *My ability to review my own methods if…

English Tutor Woy Woy Bay, NSW
A tutors responsibility isn't to provide answers, but to guide students to find their way of learning and to provide alternative approaches when tackling problem scenarios or questions. To be a successful tutor is to develop students mindsets and enable them to eventually trust in their instinct and decide for themselves the best way to go about a…

It went really well and we will continue to have Justin work with Alex. Justin explained things really well to Alex and he is already feeling more confident about Maths. He also gave me some great tips and feedback on areas I can work on with Alex.

Inside Dangar IslandTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Ava worked on multiplying fractions by whole numbers and converting between improper fractions, mixed numbers, and decimals.

For Year 8, Ethan focused on rearranging formulae to change the subject and substituting values into equations while completing homework questions.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Lily tackled volumes of composite shapes and practiced finding areas within other areas by breaking down complex figures.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10, one student's trigonometry test showed marks lost due to not writing working—"full pages with no working in his latest tests," as the tutor noted. He understood the methods during lessons but struggled under pressure to record steps, leading to missed partial credit.

In a Year 7 algebra session, forgetting to label answers and skipping careful reading of multi-step questions meant incomplete solutions or misinterpreted requirements.

Meanwhile, a senior student preparing for financial maths needed to memorise which formulas fit different scenarios but often relied on notes instead of internalising them—this slowed her down during exam practice.

Recent Achievements

A Dangar Island tutor noticed a Year 8 student who used to hesitate with rearranging formulas now confidently substitutes values without prompting, even tackling worded questions on their own.

In Year 11, one student who previously mixed up SOHCAHTOA steps can now find unknown sides independently in right-angle triangles and explain when to use each formula—a real shift from earlier confusion.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who would guess at fraction problems has started asking clarifying questions before solving, leading to accurate conversion between mixed numerals and improper fractions during their last session.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

It seems Gillian is really benefiting greatly from the tutoring and I must say that Joyce is a super star! She has somehow turned Gillian 180 degrees in her attitude to maths.

Lee has been terrific for Harry. He has helped Harry develop confidence and knowledge in Maths that certainly wasn't there at the start of the year. And the results Harry is achieving at school are outstanding. Thank you.

We had been looking for a Maths tutor for my son for the HSC for some time with very limited success. Companies would indicate they were able to supply a tutor but when push came to shove there was either no one available or the booked tutor never showed up. In desperation I spoke to a friend who I knew had a tutor for her son. She recommended Ezy Math and indicated she was extremely happy with her son's tutor Faraz. Ezy Math were easy to get on to and able to find me a tutor for my son almost straight away. I was really pleased to be advised that the tutor was Faraz whom I had already heard good things about. Faraz contacted me and we were able to organise a suitable time. Faraz has done a fantastic job keeping my son motivated and on track. The point of the sessions for us was guided revision and to consolidate the learning that was happening in the classroom. Faraz was calm and patient and able to keep my son focussed. My son has indicated he felt the sessions were extremely useful, and really helped him to pull together what he needed for the exams. Feedback reports sent monthly let me know that Faraz felt things were on track and where improvement was needed. Invoicing and payment was easy and no fuss via the website. All in all I have been really pleased with Ezy Math and so has my son.

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 Umina Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Brooklyn Public School.
