Local Reviews

Due to Nakita's tutor doing an amazing job last year, Nakita has not needed his skills for the beginning of this year, comprehending and understanding the maths content at school extremely well.

Inside PetrieTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Poppy explored scale factors and calculated the volume of cylinders and rectangular prisms using visual examples.

In Year 10, Tasha practised finding the surface area of various shapes and reviewed exam topics with a focus on applying formulas accurately.

For Year 11, Ella worked through her in-class maths assignment, clarifying key steps for each question and addressing areas she found confusing to boost her understanding.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student often rushed through differentiation and trigonometry, leading to small mistakes between dollar and cent coins as noted by the tutor.

In Year 7, one student left most worded maths problems blank on a worksheet, hesitating to attempt unless completely sure—a pattern that carried into test revision.

For a Year 9 assignment, another relied on "guessing equations to see if it works," instead of building methodical strategies or using class notes for guidance.

Meanwhile, in primary maths, several students avoided writing their working out, which hid small errors and made it hard to spot where understanding broke down during subtraction or time calculations.

Recent Achievements

One Petrie tutor noticed that a Year 11 student, Kiana, arrived with a list of tricky maths questions she'd struggled with in class—by the end of their session, she worked through every one independently and even finished early.

In another session, Clancey (Year 9) started unsure about rearranging equations but, after some guided practice, was able to solve them on his own without needing help.

Meanwhile, Tamia in Year 4 tackled her reading comprehension story solo and answered almost all follow-up questions correctly, remembering key details and going back to check when unsure.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Jessica has been great, she has helped Ben quite a bit already and identified problems and strengths.  She is punctual and diligent.

My son, is doing quite well at the moment (year 9). His tutor was fantastic and got him up to a level where he finally 'got it'.

Liam is now achieving an A for Maths - (previously getting a D!!!) Calvin is a delightful member of your team and he related really well with Liam.

Maths tutoring in Petrie

As our company name suggests, we want to make tutoring "Ezy" for parents, students and tutors! We're super passionate about education and especially about maths. Helping a student reach levels of accomplishment that were previously unknown changes their life and sets them up for long term success. It's a "feel good" experience for the student, for parents...and of course for us! Our testimonials are the inspiration that keep us going through hard times. Tutoring works well when it is consistent, reliable, flexible and easy to manage ... otherwise, for a combination of reasons, we don't get the impact we want.

So here's how the service works: We will organise for a local maths tutor in Petrie to reach out to you and organise the time and day for the lesson. The tutor comes to you. You can have the tutoring as often or as little as you like. There are no booking fees or "extras" of any sort. You simply get an invoice at the end of each month for the tuition time used. Best of all, your first lesson works as a trial, so if for some reason the tutor isn't a good fit for your family, you won't be charged for that lesson!

Ezy! Try us, 1300 312 354.

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 North Lakes Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kurwongbah State School.
