Being able to help a student achieve future problems on their own by helping them understand how to do a problem rather than just providing the solution is one of the most important things I consider a tutor can do for a student. I also think it's important to be prepared to help them with their topics by preparing first myself. I believe my…

The most important thing a tutor can do is to actually listen to their student. If they are not being receptive to feedback, and the student is not learning, then there is no progress being made. Rather, there has to be an active conversation between tutor and student that helps communicate the student's needs. I think I'm really receptive to a…

Not to teach an exact method for solving a problem, but to teach methods which work for particular general types of problems- techniques which allow them to become more familiar with how mathematics works.

I believe that tutors must have a good attitude and genuinely enjoy the concepts and the subject.

Be honest as this helps to establish rapport and trust, the two most critical elements to a successful tutoring relationship. The tutor-student relationship should be viewed as a partnership.

Local Reviews

The maths tutor for my grandson is very helpful and informative and has quickly improved his knowledge of some of the basic mathematical concepts. However last Tuesday my daughter-in - law emailed EZY Mathsat 10am in the morning to inform that my grandson was sick and could not do the tutoring that afternoon. That message was not passed on to the tutor, as i found out at 4.00pm and quickly contacted the tutor. I would suggest that EZyMaths ensures that the student or the parents/ guardians have the tutor's mobile number OR that the email gets to the tutor. Otherwise the service is general good but too much dependence on emails.

Inside GlengowrieTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student James worked through practice NAPLAN numeracy questions, focusing on relationships between fractions, decimals and percentages as well as fraction terminology and equivalence.

For Year 10, Sophie tackled simultaneous equations by graphing and substitution methods before moving to graphical solutions of linear relations.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Finn focused on statistics—mean, median, mode—and began exploring standard deviation using real-life data sets.

Recent Challenges

In Year 4, one student found it difficult to keep track of decimal place value headings—confusing 'hundredths' with 'hundreds' led to errors when recording answers in maths.

Meanwhile, a Year 9 student struggled to recall the right formulas for derivatives versus anti-derivatives in calculus; as the tutor put it, "he mixed up the stuff," which slowed problem-solving and created confusion during practice questions.

For a senior student revising statistics, boredom meant less time spent reviewing key formulas, so mistakes lingered from one session to the next.

On another day, forgotten times tables in Year 3 left division word problems unfinished.

Recent Achievements

One Glengowrie tutor recently noticed a shift with Chloe, a Year 10 student who had previously hesitated on worded ratio problems—she now attempts these independently during sessions and solves several without prompting.

In senior secondary, Finn started taking more initiative by tackling most questions in two of his assignments solo after being shown the method just once, contrasting with earlier reliance on step-by-step guidance.

Meanwhile, Jye in Year 4 has begun bringing home books to show off his spelling lists and writing pieces unprompted, where before he was quiet about his schoolwork; last session he answered literal comprehension questions correctly from "Trampolining".

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We had our 1st session tonight with David and it went really well. My son connected with him immediately even though he was nervous about tutoring and didn't really want to do it prior to tonight. After he had his session with David he said it was fun! I was pleasantly surprised to hear him say that and he asked that David come back next week instead of waiting a fortnight! We are very happy so far.

Things are going well with Amelia's tutoring and we are happy so far with the help Justin has given her. There was a decent improvement in her last maths assessment performance so that's a good sign!

We were all very impressed with Trent, Tamoe in particular. He was very patient and sought out a real connection with Tamoe. This really helped to get Tamoe to focus and listen. Tamoe is very keen to book in more time with Trent when school goes back.

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 Glenelg Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Our Lady of Grace School.
