Tutors can help build confidence of students, teaching them ways to learn and think flexibly when they encounter challenging material. They serve as a support for students, helping them feel able and assured to learn material. I am patient and considerate, which is helpful in tutoring situations as students can get frustrated when they have…

Communication skills is a vital skill that I have gained through my experience volunteering at a kindergarten and primary school and I would be able to apply this when communicating with the students. Along with communication, I've also taken on the skill of active listening which would be important for when I need to hear a student's or parents'…

Naturally, a tutor's main priority is to provide profound and thorough knowledge through clear communication. I believe that while this is nuclear to the role, this teaching can only be achieved if the tutor also carries other accompanying qualities. This includes patience and listening, aforementioned, and trust. As a tutor, it is inevitable that…

The most important thing a tutor can do would be to maintain a strict regimen on what is expected in a student. Students that are set in the easy and slow pace that their classroom teachers assert themselves will fall behind easily. It is vital that a tutor recognise and go the extra mile to attain new resources and schedules for their student to…

Most importantly, the tutor should be able to help the student achieve their desired academic results whilst under the tutor's tutelage, as this is the whole purpose of being a tutor. However, it is almost equally important to instill confidence in a student, that they will feel comfortable enough to step out of their comfort zones. More often…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is listen to them. Students who reach out for tutoring often do so because they need or want additional support, meaning it is essential to listen to what the student's goals are, what they may be struggling with, and how they feel they learn best. One of the benefits of tutoring is…

Inside Forest HillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Aiden worked on multi-digit multiplication, including the 2, 3, 5, and 10 times tables with carrying.

In Year 9, Emily tackled trigonometry by practicing calculations with sine, cosine, and tangent ratios.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Alex focused on differentiation techniques—using both visual depictions of gradients and applying algebraic rules to various problems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 3 student often completed mental calculations for multiplication (especially 3x tables), but avoided writing out working, which "made it hard to catch small errors."

In Year 9, a student's written solutions for algebraic expressions lacked logical order—lines were skipped or mixed fractions and variables in one step, leading to confusion during review.

At the senior level, one Year 12 student relied heavily on their CAS calculator for technology-active questions and "lost marks by not double-checking manual steps."

After setbacks with complex exam-style problems, another student hesitated to revisit feedback, slowing progress on high-achieving extended-response tasks.

Recent Achievements

A Forest Hill tutor noticed a Year 10 student who previously hesitated to tackle integration questions now works confidently under timed conditions, solving complex problems and interpreting exam prompts accurately.

In Year 7, a student who used to struggle with algebraic expressions quickly picked up the concept of expanding brackets and even managed to factorise more challenging expressions without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student, who once guessed at multiplication steps, now independently carries numbers correctly in two-digit multiplication tasks and checks their own work before moving on.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

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.

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 Blackburn Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Blackburn Lake Primary School.
