Modern History Tutor Hobartville, NSW
One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to give him or her self-confidence. I believe that this is especially important for struggling students. A tutor must encourage students and provide them with the tools required for academic success. A student should enjoy tutoring sessions whilst consistently improving during them.…

Inside RichmondTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Sienna practised the split and compensation strategies for addition and subtraction, along with revising multiplication tables up to 12.

In Year 10, Justin focused on analysing film techniques in "Whale Rider" and developing structured paragraphs for his essays using a simplified writing strategy.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Chitleen worked through persuasive essay structures, including crafting strong introductions and body paragraphs about "Follow the Rabbit Proof Fence," while also exploring language and film analysis techniques.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student's homework was frequently incomplete, with a tutor noting, "procrastination meant key practice was missed in maths."

In Year 10 algebra, progress slowed as he often worked through equations very slowly and hesitated to check his steps—extra time was lost retracing calculations.

A senior student struggled with calculator reliance during trigonometry; when the calculator malfunctioned, problem-solving stalled completely.

Meanwhile, in Year 5 English, overcomplicated sentence structures and missing periods made written work hard to follow: "he needs to simplify ideas and use periods correctly," observed one tutor. The result—clarity suffered and feedback couldn't be easily actioned.

Recent Achievements

One Richmond tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who, after weeks of hesitating to ask for help, started raising her hand and seeking clarification on trigonometry problems—something she used to avoid by guessing.

Another win came from a high schooler who'd been struggling with essay structure; he now drafts his introductions independently and applies feedback without needing reminders.

Meanwhile, a younger student who previously took ages to put ideas on paper is now able to express thoughts much faster, finishing story drafts in half the time it once took him.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

The tutoring process through Ezy Math follows predetermined guidelines and criteria that enables a rewarding experience for both the tutor and student and provides adequate assistance for steady student learning.

Nohemi is great. A very professional tutor with an easy going personality. Brayden has found her lessons quite helpful and has no issues with her teaching methods. As school returns from holidays this week we will see how successful tutoring has been (to-date). If nothing else, I do believe Nohemi has increased his confidence in Algebra.

Both yannick and lanah had their second lesson with Rachel on Monday and I am very happy with  the way it is going. They are comfortable with her and feel they can communicate well with her.

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 Richmond Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Richmond Public School.
