The most important thing that a tutor can do is motivate a student. No matter how good the tutor or the student, if the student doesn't want to put in the effort then tutoring will be far less effective. If you are able to motivate your student and make the learning somewhat entertaining then that student will achieve much greater results than…

A tutor has multiple responsibilities but the main motive as a tutor above all things is to first serve as a guide for the student and serve as a support system. The second important thing is to adjust any misconstrued notions which is usually the final option as independence is a very important skill that is essential for students to learn early…

Make them feel comfortable asking and receiving help. Sometimes people can simply just struggle with a question or concept, and in the grand scheme of things that's okay. But for a tutor to be properly accomplished, aside from educating well and effectively in their subject, is to create an environment for students and to imprint the notion unto…

I think that the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to show them their worth, learning-wise. There are so many people who convince themselves that they are incapable of obtaining good marks, setting them up for instant failure. A good tutor is one who can identify strengths as well as weaknesses, and rather than use the…

Moreover, a tutor should be a guiding light to the student. - Communication - Experience -…

I would say understanding student's problem is the most important to help a student. Student's problem can be in the subject matter itself, or way the subject is delivered. Some may prefer more theory in the beginning, and some may prefer tutorial way of learning. So, tutoring should be tailor-made to a student for best learning experience. As a…

Inside HillsideTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Stefan focused on ordering decimals from largest to smallest and explored decimal place value using hands-on number line activities.

In Year 9, Alice tackled Pythagoras' theorem in right-angled triangles and practiced simplifying algebraic expressions involving indices, reinforcing concepts with worked examples.

For Year 12, Chatwell discussed plans for her final year and received support on General Mathematics content, including a few targeted questions and guidance on upcoming Business Management materials.

Recent Challenges

Several secondary students showed difficulty organizing their written work in mathematics, particularly with algebra and calculus.

For example, one Year 11 student omitted intermediate steps when simplifying fractions, leading to arithmetic errors—"as a tutor noted, he didn't separate the numerator's terms before dividing by h."

In VCE exam practice, another student's performance dropped under time pressure; missing final answers or not boxing them made solutions unclear to assessors.

Meanwhile, a Year 9 student frequently confused (x,y) for (y,x) in coordinate geometry tasks, causing repeated mix-ups during reflections. These habits resulted in avoidable mistakes and extra time spent clarifying working.

Recent Achievements

One Hillside tutor recently noticed a Year 10 student who used to hesitate asking for help now clearly identifies when she's stuck and actively seeks guidance, especially with paragraph structure in English.

In Year 12 maths, another student began tackling calculus problems independently—last week, he solved a tricky differentiation question on his own after only needing a reminder about the product rule.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student has started correcting her own mistakes during multiplication exercises without prompting, showing much more persistence than before.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are more than happy with James. He has made a strong impression on both Jack and Sam. Both boys are keen and eager to please James. He has a lovely quiet demeanor and is constantly praising the boys and clearing explaining the steps as they are learning.

We are very pleased with the the tutoring Calvin is providing , Liam is benefiting already after only 3 sessions

My daughter is a fantastic reader but her maths was awful. We just couldn't get through to her even her school teachers gave up on her. I needed a professional to sit with her one on one at my convenience  and at a good price. Ezymath tutoring did all that for me, they were fantastic, the teacher we had was so patient with Chloe and they both got on really well. But more importantly Chloe now has a better understanding of numbers, we couldn't be more happy and would recommend them to anyone who wants to improve on their maths

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 Sydenham Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Sydenham - Hillside Primary School-Hillside Campus.
