The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is help them understand. Memorising content is useful, but without understanding, the brain soon discards it as unimportant. Understanding allows students to see the bigger picture and how concepts tie together. Memorising forces students into a box, where questions outside of what they’ve…

I would first try to understand what’s causing the struggle—whether it’s a gap in knowledge, a lack of confidence, or simply feeling overwhelmed. Then, I’d adjust my approach, maybe by revisiting the basics, using different examples, or setting small, achievable goals. I’d also encourage them by highlighting their progress so they feel…

I believe the most important things that a tutor can do for a student mainly relies on what the end goal of the student is. If it is just to get the homework done, it will get done.

Inside Old GuildfordTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ali practiced double-digit multiplication and division without remainders, and worked on converting fractions into decimals using number lines.

In Year 8, Sara focused on quadratic equations—factoring and solving for x—and reviewed how to convert lengthy word problems into solvable mathematical expressions.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student James revised divisibility rules (by 2, 3, 5, and 10) alongside work on factors and multiples through targeted practice questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 Mathematics, one student's exam performance was affected by panic under time pressure—"he rushed the questions and did not check over his work before submission"—leading to repeated calculation errors that went unnoticed.

In Year 4 English, another learner often gave up when faced with complex vocabulary or unfamiliar storylines; as noted, "once he hits a 'hard' question that isn't similar to others he gives up."

For both students, incomplete homework in several weeks made it difficult to identify which concepts truly needed review.

Missed opportunities for self-checking and communicating confusion led to persistent gaps in understanding.

Recent Achievements

One Old Guildford tutor noticed a big shift in Younas, a high school student who now speaks up right away about what he doesn't understand—previously, he'd hesitate or keep quiet, but lately he's been quick to communicate confusion and work through tough concepts like fractions and averages.

Another high schooler, after struggling with test mistakes, took the initiative to review each error in detail and asked for specific practice next time.

Meanwhile, Andrew (primary) used to get stuck on reading tricky words but now reads aloud without giving up, explains new vocabulary using his own actions, and even uses those words in sentences.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Tutor Stephen is a very good tutor and we would like to give him our highest recommendation for a job well done. We would recommend him to any parent who wants their child to improve in Math. Thank you for all your help Stephen and Ezy Math Tutoring.

We have used this organisation for my daughter Stephanie's HSC preparation and she ended up doing outstanding in maths in her HSC.

We engaged your services last week to assist our son, Riley. Within that short time, we're absolutely delighted and extremely impressed with the professionalism of your excellent tutor, Eliran! He is very responsive in his communication with me and has been most co-operative when I wished to match his intervention with that of Riley's school curriculum. Riley was somewhat anxious of working with a stranger, however within the first 20 minutes of the session Eliran allayed his fears with his ability to quickly establish a positive rapport, sweeping Riley up with his clear expectations of how Riley should behave in a confident manner. Eliran is obviously very competent in his subject matter and explained concepts in a simple and repetitive style. Riley was faced with a test 2 days after the initial Saturday tutorial and Eliran was most amenable to making a second session at 9am the following Sunday morning, in order to fit in with our needs! Given that this meant Eliran had to travel to our home using 2 modes of public transport, I was extremely impressed with Eliran's commitment to his job and my son. Furthermore, Eliran was also very generous with his time starting and finishing the session 10 minutes before and after the hour had concluded! I informed Riley that this kind of dedication is not common in every employee and that I was astounded with Eliran's diligent work ethic. I believe this conversation inspired Riley to perform with the similar level of integrity, and it has already paid off! We all eagerly awaited the outcome of Riley's test and we're absolutely thrilled that he scored a distinction of 79%, rising well above his average performance of 60%! My husband and I couldn't have wished for a better start, to what we hope will be a long and rewarding relationship with Eliran & Ezymathtutoring!

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 Guildford Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Old Guildford Public School.
