Local Reviews

Anna and Charlie get on well so tutoring is going well.
Tania, Pooraka

Inside PoorakaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 student Alex revised differentiation from first principles and applied calculus to projectile motion, including practice with tangent equations.

Year 11 student Priya worked through kinematics questions for an upcoming test and clarified optimisation techniques using example problems.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Ethan tackled linear graphs—drawing up equations in y=mx+c form and interpreting coordinates—with extra focus on relating scenarios to graph movement.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 mathematics, one student's working was described as "messy and hard to follow," particularly when applying the midpoint formula; this made it harder to catch sign errors.

Another Year 10 learner skipped steps when converting fractions, confusing positive and negative signs—a tutor noted, "skipping some steps mentally led to mix-ups with signs."

In a primary session, a child often struggled to explain their method or thinking aloud and hesitated to attempt verbal explanations during worded problems.

Without regular revision or organized written work, misunderstandings persisted into new topics and created barriers in problem-solving moments.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Pooraka recently noticed a Year 10 student who used to guess at graph problems now setting out multi-step working clearly and explaining slope changes without prompting.

Another high schooler, after weeks of hesitating to ask for help, initiated a discussion on projectile motion during a calculus session and worked through several tricky doubts before their test.

In a primary lesson, one child who previously rushed maths worksheets slowed down this week to check each answer and fixed mistakes independently—finishing the whole set with no corrections needed from the tutor.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

My biggest accomplishment: Great kid in grade 4, energetic and fun to tutor, although lacked concentration and confidence in maths. I showed him simple maths tricks that no curriculum teaches (e.g. how to figure out 11 times tables to any number). He understood it well, but the biggest boost he had was the confidence he got from knowing something the other kids didn't. He started to enjoy maths a lot more and his scores and attitude improved. His care givers were very happy about it. I got a big kick from steering him in the right direction and I hope he carries on this confidence in all his endevours. With Ezy Math, what I felt was great were the weekly tutoring tips/themes. It helped a lot in knowing that there are many different approaches to many different kids' habits/attitudes (e.g. as above, just confidence boosting can greatly improve a child's performance). It was also great in having that as a tool to keep in touch and keep learning as the job progresses. 21st July 2012

Ezy Math Tutoring is a company that I would comfortably work with again as it provided me with the opportunity to work with students commited to improving in the classroom. Ezy Math Tutoring is not only a company that aims to help students with their mathematics but goes above and beyond to help clients with their general student careers, through the Continuing Education Program modules that tutors are asked to go through with their students on a regular basis. I liked the purpose they served. Ezy Math Tutoring finds great importance in informing the parents about their childs progress. The monthly progress reports help busy parents keep up to date with the work being covered and the overall progress of their child, which was the main attraction for me. If you are seeking a professional service that provides results I would highly reccomend Ezy Math Tutoring to any of the parents and prospective tutors out there. 22nd July 2012

Ezy Math Tutoring provided me with a lot of support, resources and training during my time working for them. I found teaching the students very rewarding and seeing the improvement in results really made it worth it. I would definitely recommend Ezy Math Tutoring for both prospective clients and fellow tutors as each will benefit greatly from this service. 23rd July 2012

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 Mawson Lakes Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Pooraka Primary School.
