To make complex problems easier for the students to learn. Which means being effective and time-efficient. Also, a maths tutor must make learning fun rather boring, so the student will gain most or everything about what you have taught them. I think I am able to provide my ways of solving problems which the students might not have. I have pieces…

I think that the most important thing a maths tutor can do for a student is build confidence in them and creating an environment that has no judgement, so that students feel a sense of ease and lack of stress when attempting new problems, content or questions. I also think it is important for a tutor to guide students and assist them to come to…

Being patient is so important for students. Every child is different and being able to adapt to their needs and understand that it may take others longer to grasp a concept is vital.

I believe a maths tutor must always guide the student, finding a balance between giving them the answer and letting the student figure it out on their own. The tutor is not there to do homework, but to help the student to understand concepts and to have a strong foundation on which they can grow upon and use in the future. My strengths that…

The most important thing a maths tutor can do for a student is to understand that there is no unteachable student.

As a tutor, I always bring a…

I think the most important thing a maths tutor can do is remove some of the stigma the student already holds towards the subject.

Apart from the obvious requirements to provide sound academic knowledge and advice, the other aspect of tutoring that I consider most important is getting the student excited about learning.

I think the most important thing for a maths tutor is to genuinely care about the student. When a student feels supported and encouraged, they're more likely to stay motivated and engaged. It’s not just about explaining concepts—it’s about building confidence, helping them develop problem-solving skills, and making sure they feel comfortable…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student can vary, depending on the student. For e.g I had a friend who's outlook on maths was very negative, he had despised it his whole life and every time we'd have maths h would just have a frown upon his face and his mood would change. I assumed this was because he had never really…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do are to build the student's confidence, explain concepts clearly, and adapt teaching methods to meet their individual needs.

Inside NorthbridgeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Luca focused on mastering algebraic equations with fractions and brackets, then applied these skills to solve formulas and generate equations from word problems.

Year 8 student Nick practised analysing box-plot graphs and calculating cumulative frequency, using diagrams to visualise data for his upcoming assessment.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Felix worked on converting mixed and improper fractions and improved his understanding of dependent and independent clauses through targeted grammar exercises.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 Maths, one student's over-reliance on mental calculation—"I can do this in my head"—meant he often skipped written working for tricky percentage and exam questions, leading to repeated sign errors that took extra time to correct.

In Year 11 English, a pattern emerged: after setbacks understanding complex poems, confidence dropped and linking sentences became repetitive, with conclusions simply rephrasing topic sentences instead of building on earlier explanations. As one tutor noted, "he needed prompting to notice the repetitiveness."

For a Year 8 student in algebra, messy working out and inconsistent note-taking made it hard to review mistakes or track progress during revision sessions.

Recent Achievements

One Northbridge tutoring session saw a high school student who previously rushed through reading comprehension tasks start pausing to re-read questions and double-check answers, resulting in noticeably more precise responses.

Another tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to struggle with structuring essays now independently draft clear thesis statements and introduction paragraphs for history topics, after initially needing step-by-step guidance.

Meanwhile, a younger student recently showed new initiative by attempting all multiplication questions before asking for help—whereas before, she would hesitate or wait for prompts.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

My biggest accomplishment: Great kid in grade 4, energetic and fun to tutor, although lacked concentration and confidence in maths. I showed him simple maths tricks that no curriculum teaches (e.g. how to figure out 11 times tables to any number). He understood it well, but the biggest boost he had was the confidence he got from knowing something the other kids didn't. He started to enjoy maths a lot more and his scores and attitude improved. His care givers were very happy about it. I got a big kick from steering him in the right direction and I hope he carries on this confidence in all his endevours. With Ezy Math, what I felt was great were the weekly tutoring tips/themes. It helped a lot in knowing that there are many different approaches to many different kids' habits/attitudes (e.g. as above, just confidence boosting can greatly improve a child's performance). It was also great in having that as a tool to keep in touch and keep learning as the job progresses. 21st July 2012

Ezy Math Tutoring is a company that I would comfortably work with again as it provided me with the opportunity to work with students commited to improving in the classroom. Ezy Math Tutoring is not only a company that aims to help students with their mathematics but goes above and beyond to help clients with their general student careers, through the Continuing Education Program modules that tutors are asked to go through with their students on a regular basis. I liked the purpose they served. Ezy Math Tutoring finds great importance in informing the parents about their childs progress. The monthly progress reports help busy parents keep up to date with the work being covered and the overall progress of their child, which was the main attraction for me. If you are seeking a professional service that provides results I would highly reccomend Ezy Math Tutoring to any of the parents and prospective tutors out there. 22nd July 2012

Ezy Math Tutoring provided me with a lot of support, resources and training during my time working for them. I found teaching the students very rewarding and seeing the improvement in results really made it worth it. I would definitely recommend Ezy Math Tutoring for both prospective clients and fellow tutors as each will benefit greatly from this service. 23rd July 2012

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 Castlecrag Community Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like SHORE - Sydney Church of England Preparatory School, Northbridge.
