Modern History Tutor Rockdale, NSW
I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them not only build the skills they need for the subject they're being tutored in, but also to build the skills to be confident of themselves within it as well. From my experience being tutored both in maths and for an instrument, that was something my tutors helped me with,…

Through communicating with the student, I would try my best to answer all possible questions requested by the student and instil confidence for my students throughout each lesson.

The most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is to help them improve as much as they can in a given subject.

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be loving.

To me, the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to foster a transformative journey of self-discovery and empowerment. Beyond just imparting knowledge, I believe that a tutor's role is to serve as a guide, mentor, and cheerleader rolled into one. Firstly, it's crucial to create a safe and supportive environment where students…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is act as a motivation for them to achieve their personal best. Although raising marks is the main objective for tutors, they must be able to interact with the students and find their weak points and there is a limit to what they can teach. They must act as a pillar that can support their…

This helps the child to feel understood and allows…

To me, a tutor must be able to effectively communicate ideas to students in a manner that allows them to understand the concept. Understanding of more conceptually difficult topics is a difficulty every student faces and is ultimately the barrier against marks. Being able to really connect with a student and portray the idea at hand in a manner in…

I believe that the tutor's purpose is not to make the student rely on them, but rather to give them the tools to figure things out for themselves.

I believe being able to relate and support your student is the most fundamental aspect of tutoring, as it allows you to effectively gauge where they are struggling and excelling. As not every student can be treated in the same manner, this understanding is quintessential in ensuring that one's student is enjoying tutoring and growing in knowledge…

I think it's a question of what a tutor can BE rather than do. I found in my experience that I always responded to teachers who were enthusiastic and portrayed a genuine care for the learning of the student. In a metaphorical sense, the tutor must think like a student in an empathetic way rather than merely be a one way stream of instruction. If a…

For me, the most important thing that a tutor can do is to develop students' confidence and ability in their studies. By working with a student personally by meeting them where they are at in their abilities, a student's academic confidence can grow as they are able to focus on areas of their work that they specifically struggle with. I think this…

Over the years, I have developed the opinion that the teaching of transferable skills - contrary to only what is needed at the moment - is most valuable for the student’s future development. It is important to see that just completing the mandatory homework will not suffice, the real challenge is to change the mindset. As a good tutor, one has…

Hiba, Monterey

Inside MontereyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Alex worked on converting fractions to decimals and practiced long division alongside percentage problems, using visual aids for tricky steps.

In Year 10, Jeyda reviewed HSC exam questions focusing on simultaneous equations and tackled worded problems from past papers to build confidence.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Sarah concentrated on non-right-angled trigonometry and answered multiple-choice questions from recent HSC trial exams to sharpen her skills under timed conditions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student found lengthy exam-style maths questions overwhelming, often losing track of their approach midway—"she could explain the correct method aloud but didn't apply it on paper."

In Year 11 biology, one learner hesitated to provide detailed explanations or examples, limiting depth in written responses.

For a Year 5 student, frustration surfaced quickly when unsure about answers, leading to reluctance in attempting work.

A Year 8 student consistently struggled to extract equations from worded algebra problems and rarely checked working despite prompting; mistakes lingered until addressed directly together during the session.

Recent Achievements

A Monterey tutor recently saw a big shift with Jeyda, a high school student who used to get stuck on worded maths problems—she now works through tricky questions without losing focus, carefully breaking down information instead of freezing up.

Another older student completed an entire trial exam ahead of time for the first time, targeting big-mark questions and reviewing her own mistakes as she went.

Meanwhile, in Year 4, Olivia started asking for help only when really needed and began using her calculator independently after struggling to connect classroom theory with practical problem-solving.

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 Brighton-Le-Sands Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Ramsgate Public School.
