Help a student feel supported in their learning journey. When content becomes challenging it’s super important to help students in a way that makes them feel comfortable and capable.

Through this process I think it is great to ensure I can introduce concepts in various ways and add…

Being patient, understanding that not all students are the same. Assessing their abilities and making a plan to target weak areas or areas where a student may struggle with.

Hence, I always make an extra effort to listen to my students' problems and if possible, offer them suitable help. I have always…

Certainly building self-confidence in a student! It is the key to furthering skills and this can be highly motivating for a student. As a student who recently completed VCE, I found having a tutor built my confidence by exposing me to what was coming in my VCE subjects and therefore making me comfortable with the key concepts and theory. This can…

I believe that increasing a student's confidence in any area of study is imperative as it is a reaper of success in that it piques their curiosity, motivating them to seek improvement in their studies. In addition, presenting concepts in unique and engaging ways that are tailored to the student is also of great importance as it captures their…

- Being patient is one of the most important things a tutor can do, along with willing to repeat themselves as long as it takes for the student to grasp the concept. Another important thing is to be creative and have multiple ways of teaching, which also strengthens the student's understanding. As a tutor, I hold multiple skills and strengths…

One of the most important things a teacher can do for their student is to listen. Not to listen to think of the next response but to listen to understand. I believe as a teacher listening specifically to WHAT the student is asking not HOW they are asking it is one of the most valuable and important skills I've learned to develop. When a student is…

It is also vital to ensure that the tutor works collaboratively with the student as well as the parents. Ensuring the student understands the material they…

I believe this can be achieved by maintaining a constant channel of…

And in this way, the student will remember what he/she learns for a lifetime and not just for the purpose of examinations. I am a very patient Tutor,…

Local Reviews

Daman was tutoring me in math to help me pass an army test and i ended up passing my test last week. He has helped me improve in math which I've been struggling with when growing up and as I will now be teaching myself improve more and more in math using his method as I believe it really helped me. I wouldn't have passed the test without him so hats off to this bloke.

Inside GreenvaleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Arjun reviewed perimeter and area of solids as well as worked through challenging integer questions.

In Year 9, Priya focused on data analysis by interpreting stem-and-leaf plots and plotting line graphs, also revising key statistics like mean and median.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student, Josh, concentrated on networks—practising drawing network diagrams—and spent time consolidating knowledge for upcoming exams.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 mathematics, one student repeatedly looked back at notes instead of recalling terms independently during probability work—"he checked the book for every definition," making problem-solving slower.

A Year 11 student left several homework questions unfinished on volume and area, missing a chance to practice new methods before next week's topic shift.

Meanwhile, in a primary session, a student avoided writing out full working for long division due to fear of errors; as noted, "she rubbed out steps she wasn't sure about." This meant less feedback could be given on where her understanding broke down.

Recent Achievements

One Greenvale tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to rush through maths homework now double-checking answers and explaining her steps aloud, especially when tackling percentage discounts—a shift from earlier lessons where she'd skip working out.

Another recent win came from a Year 8 boy: after struggling with two-digit multiplication for weeks, he completed his assigned problems independently for the first time and even asked for more challenging ones.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student surprised her tutor by drawing diagrams to solve tricky worded maths questions—something she previously avoided—and finished all ten practice problems without prompting.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Thank you for touching base. I am really impressed with William's efforts to date. He has very quickly worked out Layla's weaknesses and the areas that need attention. I also believe that his strategy of working slightly ahead of schedule and thus getting her 'in front' in some areas will help with her confidence in class. Layla is also receiving additional Maths support in school and combined with William's efforts, I am confident that we should see her Maths results improve.

Very happy with John.  Would like Jackson to have more lessons with him but can't get Jackson to agree to it as yet!  Working on him.  May ask John to help out with science and possibly English as well in the future if he has time.

Ezy maths tutoring was just what we were after for Zena. We tried a couple of other tutoring companies before ezy maths tutoring but one we had to travel to to get there and the other offered us a young and inexperienced tutor, tutoring is more than knowing about the subject it is being able to teach it. Ezy maths tutoring offered us with everything we were looking for, reasonable pricing, at home tutoring and of course an excellent tutor. We found 'Tara' to be patient and understanding and Zena went from a D to getting B's and C's. We were very happy, thanks to Tara and ezy maths tutoring.

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 Gladstone Park Community Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Greenvale Primary School.
