Allowing the student to grasp the content more than being able to memorise the lesson, I think is a vital value and being able to help them do that is what I think is the most important thing for me. Further, making sure they enjoy the content that they learn rather than feeling like they are forced to learn is another important condition.…

Personally I believe it is very important to communicate the material to different types of students, everybody learns different and adapting to this is very important. Communication is key and you have to be clear when teaching content. I also believe it is important to create a safe space for students to be able to ask for help and feedback. As…

I think the most important thing a maths tutor can do is to be flexible with their different learning styles. Often when students ask for a tutor it's because they are unable to learn using the method their teacher uses. It's a tutor's job to rework concepts in a way so that students can benefit from it. Simply repeating what a teacher has said…

Every student is different and requires different teaching methods. One cannot generalise every student learning patterns. A tutor must be able to develop new learning strategies and tools and simplify lessons that are difficult and hard for students to understand. He must also be able to inspire and motivate his students to be better and to aim…

A tutor should be able to understand how they can help a student and should teach content or provide help in a way that suits their student's learning style. This would ensure that students are able to learn easier and with less stress. Students should not just be taught what to learn but also how to learn depending on the topic learnt, since it…

Pass on knowledge about how to become self-sufficient and break down work so that it's less overwhelming. Moreover, teaching students how to learn actively, rather than passively is incredibly significant. It is what will help prepare them for VCE, tertiary education, and just general adult life.

Inside Pakenham SouthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Emily worked through adding and subtracting fractions as well as tackling fraction word problems using everyday scenarios.

Year 8 student Alex focused on multiplying and dividing algebraic terms, along with adding and subtracting algebraic fractions for practice with simplifying expressions.

For Year 10, James explored linear graphs—drawing them accurately—and deepened his understanding of gradient calculations for different types of lines.

Recent Challenges

In Year 5, one student "made small errors in the homework as she had made a tiny error," often linked to misreading or skipping over parts of worded problems.

In Year 8 algebra, a reluctance to show working ("I can do this in my head") led to hidden sign mistakes—extra time was then spent backtracking rather than moving forward.

For a Year 11 student, over-reliance on calculators during trigonometric ratio questions meant methods weren't committed to memory, causing hesitation when technology wasn't allowed. The effect: confidence wavered and progress slowed during independent revision for upcoming assessments.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Pakenham South noticed one Year 10 student who used to hesitate with algebra now consistently sets up equations without prompting and checks her work for errors—previously, she'd wait for reassurance before moving on.

In a recent session, a Year 12 student who had struggled with differentiation rules not only remembered all the steps but applied them accurately across problems.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student surprised her tutor by explaining her own reasoning while converting decimals to fractions—she hadn't felt confident verbalising her thinking before.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Paris has been fantastic and has assisted Charlotte bridge the gap with her maths and had a positive result on her end of year school report and we wish to thank her so very much.

We just wanted to thank Thomas Ban for the wonderful work he has done with Jasmine this year. We feel that she has received these grades due to Thomas tutoring. He has challenged and pushed her to work harder and improve her maths. He is also extremely professional and courteous.

Working for Ezy Math Tutoring has given me confidence as a maths tutor. I began without much formal experience and the CEP program was able to teach me as i tutored. The company was very helpfull and whenever I had questions about dealing with problems they suggested ways to resolve them - i was able to help many students with this support. thanks. 24th September 2011

Sometimes a student just needs some help. Especially with maths!
