Science Tutor Dingabledinga, SA
In my opinion, the most important role of a tutor is to not only retell information and explain answers but give students tools in studying different subjects that can be applicable to their independent study. In this way, the student can learn how to independently intake knowledge; a skill that will serve them not only in the year or subject that…

Science Tutor Mclaren Vale, SA
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is make the subject fun and enjoyable. I remember automatically hating subjects if the teacher at school gave boring lectures and I strive to make studying something students look forward to. I think my greatest strength as a tutor is that I'm extremely patient. I also try to understand what…

Inside MontarraTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8: Alyssa worked on index laws and simultaneous equations, using targeted practice to boost her confidence with both skills.

For Year 9, Marcus reviewed trigonometry—solving for unknown angles and sides—and tackled a set of probability and frequency table questions.

In Year 10, Josh focused on factorisation techniques such as the difference of two squares and perfect square expansions, then moved on to algebraic expressions and rules through guided examples.

Recent Challenges

In Year 3 maths, one student repeatedly relied on counting with fingers for basic calculations and hesitated to recall times tables quickly. "She still tries to use her fingers under the table," a tutor noted, which slowed progress in class tests and meant longer time spent on each question.

In Year 9 algebra, another student's confidence dropped sharply after making a sign error in expanding brackets; she then avoided attempting similar questions without reassurance, leading to unfinished homework.

For a Year 11 assignment, anxiety about starting left the page blank for ten minutes before any work began—her struggle was not with content but with getting started.

Recent Achievements

One Montarra tutor noted that a high school student who once hesitated to ask for help during maths practice now regularly flags tricky questions and requests clarification on her own, especially when learning new algebraic techniques.

Another older student, after initially struggling with simultaneous equations, managed to complete an in-session practice test with 100% accuracy and needed assistance only twice—an impressive leap from her earlier dependence on step-by-step guidance.

Meanwhile, a younger learner recently improved from 0% to 75% on her rounding skills assessment; she now volunteers to explain her working aloud when tackling word problems, showing real initiative.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I came on board as a tutor, when I was looking for a part-time job to support my post-graduate studies. I felt tutoring was a great way to utilise the skills I had in mathematics while working with someone to help improve themselves and develop my own skill set at the same time. It was personal development on multiple levels. The tutoring experience at EzyMath was very unique - because the focus was on helping the student develop learning skills, that could be applied outside of mathematics. This was very appealing to me because I feel it's important to teach skills that enable others to learn themselves. The weekly material provided by EzyMath was extremely thought-provoking and always had a practical application. My biggest accomplishment was definitely becoming friend and mentor to my student. We were able to discuss issues outside of the normal day to day work, and I was able to understand the interests and learning capabilities of my student. This was invaluable to for developing a good working relationship thereby enabling me to structure my lessons with more intent overtime. Overall, I found that working for EzyMath was both challenging and extremely satisfying. I learned a great deal about different types of learning methods, teaching methods and the skills it takes to deal with other people. If you are looking for an engaging experience where you can make a positive contribution to other students, then working at EzyMath is definitely for you! 9th August 2012

Hi everyone. i am a former tutor at Ezy Math Tutoring. I worked as a tutor while enrolled as a student at the University of Wollongong. The selection process for entering the EzyMath Tutoring team was meticulous and involved a written exam as well as an interview. I can honestly say that the recruitment staff at EzyMath Tutoring team takes utmost care to select only the best candidates who have proven record in mathematics. EzyMath Tutoring gave me a wonderful opportunity to coach younger students not only in the subject of Mathematics but also Chemistry, Biology and Physics. The fortnightly Continuous Education Program (CEP) modules helped me become not only a better tutor but also a better student. The modules on self-belief, the different types of learning styles were interesting, intriguing and informative. EzyMath Tutoring has my highest recommendations for prospective tutors as well as prospective clients. 18th August 2012

Angelica has greatly improved her understanding  of  Maths  since her tuition and we are very grateful for that. We have been very happy with the tutoring service.

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 Willunga Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Willunga High School.
