Science Tutor Ettalong Beach, NSW
Implement creativity and a willingness to try is the most important skill a tutor can pass on to their students. Once a student builds a willingness to try and a need to challenge themselves, they will be more likely to build good habits and routines around creating these pathways for themselves. I always ask myself 'how do students learn' and…

Be present and engaged in each lesson and ensure they thoroughly understand each topic before moving on. I would say my main strengths are patience and communication. When it comes to breaking down questions, it helps to work through things slowly and ensure understanding at each…

Science Tutor Woy Woy, NSW
I think that whilst having adaptive teaching methods is important, ensuring the student constantly feels supported and motivated by the tutor is vital. For me, in school no matter how much I was struggling (especially in maths) I found that having a great, understanding teacher, allowed me to not be afraid of asking ‘stupid’ questions. So for…

Tutor has to be completely sure that students understood all provided information very clear. This gives them filling of confidence, happiness, and satisfaction. I can explain the information in different simple understandable ways. When I studied Diploma in Building and Construction in TAFE, we had subject which called structure. I could explain…

Angelina

Science Tutor Umina Beach, NSW
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is show genuine care for the student's learning. Additionally, having a passion for teaching is vital, because with no passion and care, the tutoring interactions with the student are inauthentic. My greatest strength as a tutor is being able to change the way I explain a concept so…

Science Tutor Green Point, NSW
I believe that tutors should provide all-round mentorship to students and that this is one of the most important things that can come of tutoring; helping them to feel more confident in approaching problems they have in their everyday lives and to search for the answers to the questions that they have about the world around them. I am very patient…

The most important thing a tutor can do is give a student the confidence to continue to achieve and learn for themselves. If they can believe in themselves and keep working, they will succeed regardless of their level. I am personable and easy-going, able to meet the student where they need to be met. I have a genuine passion for mathematics and…

The lesson yesterday went well. Manuela's feedback was very happy. She enjoyed the lesson and thinks that Roshini is very polite and calm.

Inside Phegans BayTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Yillen focused on applying Pythagoras' Theorem in right-angled triangles and practiced finding perimeters and areas, using diagrams to clarify each step.

Year 9 student Mia worked through rearranging formulas to find unknown dimensions in area questions and calculated the areas of composite shapes by breaking them down into familiar figures.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ava reviewed trigonometry concepts for an upcoming test, including solving for unknown sides and angles using SOHCAHTOA and the Pythagorean theorem.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 Maths, as one tutor noted, "she needed reminders to write all her working out," especially when rearranging SOHCAHTOA equations—omitting steps made sign errors harder to spot and correct.

For a Year 11 student, forgotten calculators during lessons on tax calculations meant the session slowed down and key practice was missed.

A Year 10 lesson saw late arrival and distraction: "I had to almost give him 80% of the answers this lesson just to keep him engaged enough to try."

In English (Year 9), minimal written material limited feedback opportunities on essays using PETAL structure.

Recent Achievements

One Phegans Bay tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 10 student who used to hesitate when tackling homework—this week, he openly asked for help with school assignments and even requested extra challenging problems, something he'd avoided before.

In a high school session, another student who struggled with Pythagoras' Theorem picked up the foundations quickly and managed to solve several right-angle triangle questions independently by lesson's end.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who'd been quiet at first started confidently explaining her reasoning out loud after just a few sessions.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I find the monthly parent report very informative and am impressed with the standard of tutoring provided by Zev, not to mention his professionalism. If anybody was to ask me about student tutoring I would not hesitate to thoroughly recommend Ezymath tutoring!

Najib is making progress with Daniel and he feels more confident about tackling maths problems. I am sure Daniel will continue to improve under Najib's careful direction.

Before EzyMath, we had tried two different maths tutors for our son Mathew, they have been ok but not great.  I approached EzyMath because Mat wasn't really connecting with the tutors that we had sourced independently.  EzyMath put us in touch with Luke, a Uni student that lived close by. Luke was closer to Mat's age and related to him much better than just another adult telling him what to do.  Luke was flexible and would come on different days if Mat had a test that he needed to prepare for. The other thing that I love about EzyMath is that they do the character vetting for you, it's not just some random out of the paper that says they know how to teach Math.  We are thrilled with Mathew's new found confidence with this subject and would recommend EzyMath to anyone who needs a bit of extra help engaging with a subject and becoming more confident.  Happy kid is a happy parent!  Thank you EzyMath.

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 Umina Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Brisbane Water Secondary College Woy Woy Campus.
