The most important lesson a biology tutor can hand down to a student is the confidence to raise their hand against any topic or situation they consider unfair or questionable. Self-confidence and self-worth is very important to ensure that each student grow into mature independent adults, who are able to accept the ups and downs that they will…

In my opinion, the most important things that a biology tutor can do for a student would be explaining concepts to them in ways that the individual student can understand as well as aiding them in memorisation and application of the concept tutored. Moreover, I strongly believe that it is extremely important for a tutor to leave a student without…

The single most important aspect for a biology tutor is to be able to keep the student's attention; losing their focus implicates the loss of any further progress in the topic at hand and their faith in how much you can help them as a mentor. Maintaining their concentration throughout the duration of the session, while tiring at times, pays off. I…

listening to students and finding out what they want out of the sessions and how they prefer to learn. By doing so we can offer a method of learning that's customized to them as an individual and not as a class.

Besides from general knowledge of the subjects, understanding the strengths as well as weaknesses of the students is a must for personal tutors. We can develop the most effective way to teach if we are fully aware of these factors. Also, one of the most important things a biology tutor can do is to be patient and considerate with their students.…

Personally for me, the teachers at school never went into what you really need to succeed in the HSC, and being one student in a class of 30 meant most times your questions were left unanswered. Having being tutored, having someone available to ask questions that I did not understand was very helpful throughout my schooling career, and I hope to…

Andrew is doing an amazing job tutoring my son Caleb. Couldn't be happier at the moment.
Liz

Inside RipplesideTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Eliz focused on subtraction, explored the basics of chance, solved arithmetic problems with decimals, and began learning Roman numerals using visual aids.

For Year 9, Sarah worked through quadratic equations and practised translating real-world problems into algebraic expressions.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Liam deepened his understanding of parabolic graphs by finding gradients and identifying maximum and minimum points from different graph sketches.

Recent Challenges

A Year 7 student in maths relied on guessing when unsure, especially with division problems—"needs to take more interest to solve problems instead of guessing the answers," noted a tutor.

In Year 9 algebra, another student skipped writing steps while rearranging equations, leading to confusion about sign changes and order of operations.

For Year 11 graphing tasks, over-reliance on calculators became apparent: "more practice with evaluating graphs" was suggested because key concepts weren't being reinforced.

One primary learner's tendency to rush spelling in English resulted in repeated corrections and frustration during reading aloud.

These habits often left students double-checking work or feeling uncertain when new challenges appeared.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Rippleside noticed a Year 9 student who previously hesitated to ask for clarification now pauses to request help whenever she's stuck, rather than just guessing and moving on.

Another win came from a Year 11 maths session where a student who struggled with the chain rule last term was able to work through problems independently after concept revision.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who often rushed her reading assignments has started slowing down and self-correcting punctuation mistakes without prompting—she finished her latest story by fixing three of her own sentence errors.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Since my daughter has been tutored by Ezy Math, she has improved significantly. At the end of last year she failed the yearly test and was ranked near the bottom of her year. Now after just 3 months of tutoring , she has achieved the highest mark in her class in the  half yearly exam. This has been a great boast to her confidence in addition to a great academic achievement. She knows now that she has the ability to do well in maths. Jessica is always very well prepared for all the sessions. During this time we went away on holidays and missed 3 weeks of school. Prior to leaving Jessica covered all the topics the school was doing to ensure that she did not get behind. We are extremely happy with Ezy Math Tutoring and  highly recommend them.

I was just writing to let you know that I got better than the grade I hoped for, so everything turned out great! I wanted to say thank-you for all of your help. I would not have been able to do this without you. Thanks so much.

After two months our son's marks in year 10 maths went from the fourties to the seventies. I think most tutors know their maths but our tutor is a wonderful communicator and talented educator whom we wish to retain through the HSC.

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 Geelong West Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like SEDA College (Victoria) - BVNV Geelong.
