Modern History Tutor Mawson, ACT
I understand the struggles of high school students - the anxiety of asking questions and the lack motivation to learn. A tutor should be able to create a safe space for communication to tackle problems and provide useful solutions to such issues. Also, an important characteristic a tutor should have is to help motivate students with a positive…

A tutor is not there to do a student's homework for them but rather to help them think and problem solve in new ways so that they can complete their work more effectively and be a more independent learner. Thus, a tutor can help by bringing with themselves a large amount of knowledge in the subject area(s) and by having a patient and understanding…

Provide a safe space for questions and growth to happen. I believe tutoring offers a unique style of personalised learning so that students can receive clarification in areas they're struggling in. I can adapt and teach in multiple styles and manners, meaning I connect with my students and allow them to feel safe and comfortable to ask…

The most important thing for a tutor is to understand their student. All students have different strengths and weaknesses, and it is the responsibility of the tutor to understand their student as an individual in order to tutor in a way that is the most effective for a student to improve. For example, one of my students in the past learnt best…

Modern History Tutor Lyons, ACT
Listening to their needs and their struggles is vital to finding a way for them to enjoy school and the subject. You need to be able to push the student but in a way that helps them to achieve something they're proud of. Pushing them for results is usually only going to increase their frustration and dislike for school/learning. Tutors are in a…

I believe the two most important things a tutor can do for a student are to aid them in the learning gaps they may have and to help them in building a positive relationship with academics. It is common that if students may have a negative relationship with subjects they are not very confident in. Building confidence in these subjects is one of the…

I think it is important that a tutor be able to explain a concept in a way that the student can understand, internalise and remember, while tapping into their passion for the subject, rather than strictly and laboriously forcing them to rote-learn concepts (with the exception of fairly simple ideas like times tables of course) I think my strengths…

I think the most important thing is to inspire students to learn more and improve in their own respective ways, as it is crucial that we teach them methods of how to learn instead of just force-feeding knowledge. Tutors should teach strategies that are easily implementable for a variety of situations so that students can confidently adapt their…

Provide support to students in both the academic and mental difficulties they might be going through. Often as a tutor you must recognise that students who get tutoring need further help than what is being given and may have academic insecurity, so it is our role to help them improve on this and gain confidence in their learning, with hopes that…

I think listening to the student is the most important thing a tutor can do. Whether it is simply listening to troubles they are having with a class or with life, listening to the student is very important. As someone who has studied a wide range of topics throughout high school and college, I feel like I have a wide range of expertise.…

The two most important things a tutor can do for a student in my view are (1) adapt to that particular student and (2) encourage and motivate the student along the way. Indeed, without motivation, tutoring is a fairly pointless exercise. My strengths as a student are (1) my ability to make complex concepts, especially in maths, tangible to…

I think one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to give them confidence in themselves and their understanding of the subject. I find that from confidence can come a wealth of improvement in performance, as a student's willingness to take risks and belief themselves can go a long way. In terms of specific strengths, I…

Inside MawsonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Harry worked on simplifying fractions and ratios by finding common factors, then practiced applying BODMAS to solve equations in the correct order.

In Year 9, Emily focused on index laws—including multiplication and division of powers—and began using scientific notation for large numbers.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Jacob learned how to find the turning point of a parabola and practiced graphing quadratic equations, using Desmos for visual support.

Recent Challenges

Most of the homework was done incorrectly, but when done in person he did them flawlessly—suggesting that independent practice and applying feedback outside sessions need strengthening.

In Year 9, messy formatting when working with hyperbolae led to confusion and repeated errors; one note said, needs to format her questions and answers a little better.

A Year 11 student frequently tried to solve quadratics entirely in their head rather than using pen and paper, resulting in missed steps and uncertainty about the underlying process.

Recent Achievements

In Year 6, one student who previously hesitated to speak up began talking aloud as she worked through challenging percentage and conversion problems—something she'd avoided before.

During a high school session, a Year 10 student independently corrected mistakes from his homework on quadratic factorisation, showing new self-reliance rather than waiting for hints.

Another senior student, after struggling with hyperbolae last week, was able to clearly explain the intercepts out loud and confidently analyse scatter plots by herself during the latest session.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I'm an older student studying nursing this term I had a maths calculation exam that required 100% to pass . As you can imagine I was "freaking out !!! " 100% are you crazy !!!!!! . Then I meet Lisa !! she was one of my favorite people !! she was punctual,organised , and willing to spend the extra time if needed ,Lisa  researched  and came up with numerous,exams ,test and quiz's and got me all sorted with all the necessary formulas that where need to  get my brain working again . I actually believed I could do this . It was the happiest text I'd ever sent to notify Lisa I passed !! 100%  Wow ,I would have not been able to do it with out Lisa's help .

Thank you for the report. I wanted to take a moment and thank you for sending Brady to our home to assist Laura with math tuition. He fit's in well and has a nice approach to learning for a young student. Very happy client.

we are extremely satisfied with ezymaths and Gabrielle. I have recommended ezymaths to many and Thomas has made great progress with Gabrielle's tutoring.
