Tutors are not just there to teach, but also be mentors for the students and guide them where need be. I believe that the most significant strength I have is making…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is not only explain an answer to a student, but actually make sure that they understand how the answer is derived and can do it themselves.

One of the most important things a tutor can do is be patient and supportive. Different people learn different things in different ways, and at different rates. A tutor must cater for that, and not skip over important things that students have not yet understood. A tutor must use the method of explaining/teaching that students will understand. I…

Local Reviews

Ezymaths were very professional and helpful. They are excellent at communicating, offering written or verbal advice, updates, payment notices etc. Even when our first tutor didn't quite suit my child, they arranged a second more suitable one within days. It's great that they come to you and fit with your schedule even when things change.

Inside Park OrchardsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Daniel worked on converting fractions to decimals and percentages, along with simplifying using the distributive law.

For Year 9, Chloe focused on solving linear equations and simultaneous equations, using step-by-step algebraic techniques to prepare for an upcoming assessment.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Olivia tackled quadratic equations by calculating discriminants and applying the quadratic formula, as well as simplifying surds and indices in practice problems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 Physics student, when facing unfamiliar exam formats, often relied on long-term memory rather than recent practice—this led to slower responses and missed details ("Kirill elected to answer some questions based on long term memory, resulting in slower exam taking").

In Year 9 Mathematics, a student struggled with rearranging equations due to not consistently using pen and paper for working steps, which made tracking errors harder.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner avoided expanding on her writing plan, so stories remained brief and underdeveloped.

These patterns meant time was lost untangling misunderstandings or revisiting unfinished work instead of building new skills.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Park Orchards noticed that a Year 11 student, previously hesitant to ask for help, now actively raises questions during sessions when confused—especially while tackling complex matrix topics.

Another high schooler who used to make frequent errors on quantitative exam questions recently completed a full test much faster and with almost no mistakes, showing real improvement in both speed and accuracy.

In the younger years, one Year 3 student has started independently checking her writing for punctuation errors before moving on—a big shift from needing constant reminders in earlier lessons.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Ezymath tutoring was a fantastic company to tutor for. They were extremely helpful in a number of situations and were always able to answer a question promptly. The way in which they kept on making sure I was continually trained was a success through the use of biweekly CEP. Overall, I am very happy with having tutored with Ezymath and would recommend anyone to choose them, as a tutor or a student

I decided to start tutoring with EzyMath in order to gain some teaching experience while studying education at university. The confidence and knowledge this job has given me is second to none; working one on one with students can be a challenging experience, but it is endlessly rewarding. I was most impressed with how EzyMath provided ongoing support and learning programs to their tutors, providing us with teaching tips and skills to use with our clients. My best accomplishment during my time as a tutor would have been taking my ESL student from a C- in English to an A grade. I could see how pleased she was with herself, and the sense of achievement was shared between us. I encourage all education students to take on tutoring for extra experience, as it will provide you with a head start that will boost your teaching practice. There are plenty of tutoring companies to choose from, however if you are looking for great communication, training, support and professionalism, make EzyMath your first choice.

Ezy Math Tutoring is a great way for tutors to expose themselves to a wide variety of students across different age gaps and different subjects. Tutors are given great flexibility and choice with regards to which students they would like to tutor and in what locations. Ezy Math Tutoring provided great support throughout my time with them and consistent advice. Seeing my students improve and gain confidence over time was both rewarding and satisfying. I would recommend Ezy Math Tutoring for prospective clients and tutors.

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 Warrandyte Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Park Orchards Primary School.
