Empathising with the student and understanding their background knowledge and skills. Giving the students space to work things out on their own, and providing structure to help guide their self-study as opposed to supplying all the answers.

I would consider some of the important things for a maths tutor to provide to a student are confidence and self belief. Giving a student the self confidence that they can do this will provide them with the tools to continue improving and getting better. I feel that from experience that most people who do not have confidence or belief struggle with…

To help the student know that there is nothing the can’t learn it’s just that sometimes they need to hear it or approach it in different ways. It’s really important to not give up and to keep trying.

I believe primarily, a maths tutor should not give the answer nor should they provide assistance in a way that does not allow for the student to improve. The tutor should be able to explain and work through anything that the student is unable to in a way that is clear and is understood by the student themselves. This ability must be flexible as…

For me, the most important thing is to always ask questions if there are any unclear parts of the lesson. Also, mastery is always important so practice is the key, esp. for Math.

I believe in the importance of developing a student's own independent thinking skills, so that they gather the confidence to correctly respond to any problem that an exam or test may pose individually as I, the tutor, will not be there to help in assessments. By doing this, the student can cement beneficial study habits and obtain their academic…

One of the most important things a maths tutor can do for a student is to understand the learning ability of a student.

As a tutor, I am able to…

I believe, a teacher should make a learning setting that is helpful and encouraging so that students can feel free to ask their questions even nth time.

It would be empathy, in my opinion.

Local Reviews

Eleanor says that she likes Deepti and she learned a lot from her.
Liz, Elwood

Inside ElwoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Frankie practised solving simultaneous equations using both elimination and substitution methods, as well as reviewing strategies for tackling measurement and geometry revision questions.

In Year 10, Isla focused on expanding and simplifying algebraic expressions, alongside strengthening her understanding of negative numbers through step-by-step practice.

For Year 12, Alice completed a detailed review of matrix division and the identity matrix before moving on to advanced applications with transition matrices in preparation for upcoming assessment tasks.

Recent Challenges

A significant amount of knowledge...was lost over the last week due to incompletion of homework for a Year 11 student who missed assignments on credit card and interest problems, resulting in noticeable gaps during a weekly quiz.

In VCE English, another student arrived with only half their assigned essay finished, citing busy SAC periods but not communicating in advance.

For a Year 12 mathematics lesson, skipping careful reading meant important details in compound interest questions were overlooked, requiring repeated correction.

Meanwhile, one junior secondary student relied heavily on step-by-step memorisation for algebra instead of developing conceptual understanding, which slowed progress during multi-step problems.

Recent Achievements

One Elwood tutor noticed a real shift in a Year 11 student who used to hesitate with matrix operations—she's now creating her own process for multiplication and tackling advanced transition matrices almost independently.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student who struggled with algebra is expanding brackets more accurately and now works through negative numbers with less prompting than before.

In English, Will (Year 12) has started asking for new vocabulary during sessions and independently picks out errors in his writing—a big step up from earlier weeks when he'd avoid revising drafts.

Last session, he submitted his homework on time and complete.

What they say about our tutoring

Ezymaths is a great place to work as tutors are provided with the combination of independence and assistance needed to further any students' education. 30th July 2012

There are many accomplishments I achieved as a math tutor for Ezy Math Tutoring but the biggest would have to be having the chance to work with students who are striving for success and the satisfaction that came with connecting to the students when trying to explain a topic, whether they be a senior student working toward a good Overall Position or a beginner grasping for understanding in the subject of mathematics. From the tutoring experience during my time with Ezy Math Tutoring, I was able to achieve exactly what I was after while job hunting, and that was the ability to take on a leadership role and lead students from stressful situations of not understanding content to successful results within a few months time. I would definitely recommend working with Ezy Math Tutoring as they take the effort in assigning students within your area so travelling to students is not an issue, and for the students looking for tutors, the tutors here will offer you as much help as you need, with set strategies proven to be successful to help you reach where you want to be. 31st July 2012

My biggest accomplishment is guiding a year 12 student through the final topics of 2 Unit mathematics and making her understand the concepts and formulas in those topics. My second biggest accomplishment is my year 8 student receiving an A. I came to work for Ezy Math Tutoring because I wanted an income while studying in University. What I got out of the tutoring experience is that I have increased my communication skills as well as my teaching skills. I also gained experience in being responsible. What was special about Ezy Math Tutoring were the guidelines that were given to us. They were good on guiding how to set each lesson, what to expect and how to handle certain situations. 3rd August 2012

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 St Kilda Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Columba's School.
