I consider the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to be a constant supporting presence and to increase their confidence in their own knowledge and skills. From my experience as a high school and uni tutor, I observed many students who did not struggle with the concepts they were being taught but instead struggled with…

It is all about knowing the audience. Not all kids/students have the same skillset, some are good in memorizing, some are good in analogy, some are good in logic and arithmetic. So it's about knowing their strengths and align it in a way that it would enhance their ability to learn. I am very dynamic and very patient in terms of tutoring, the…

Inside RivettTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Alex worked on balancing chemical and net-ionic equations, as well as identifying and naming polyatomic ions with explanations about solubility, using real experiment observations for context.

In Year 11, Priya tackled forming chemical compound formulae by understanding ionic charges and practised writing full chemical equations from worded questions, including complex reaction types like single and double displacement.

For Year 8, Sam focused on solving simultaneous equations with two variables using the elimination method and applied area formulas to circles and parallelograms in geometry tasks.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 Chemistry, one student relied heavily on memorisation but skipped written practice balancing equations—"more practice is required to solidify technique," a tutor noted, especially when polyatomic ions appeared.

Meanwhile, in Year 8 Maths, a learner used a calculator for basic multiplication and square roots rather than recalling times tables, which slowed progress during timed tests.

For an upper primary English task, incomplete daily writing led to weaker sentence structure and limited improvement in punctuation.

In senior years, late assessment drafts and missed school revision sessions meant valuable feedback was left unused before major Modern History and Sociology exams.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Rivett noticed that a Year 11 student, Sami, took the initiative to create his own practice questions from class examples—something he hadn't tried before—and this led him to improve his understanding of parabolas and boost his maths exam score from 50% to 71%.

Meanwhile, Rory (Year 9) wrote productively for almost an entire session without prompting and received positive feedback from his English teacher for a thorough presentation, after previously struggling with clarity on assignment requirements.

In primary sessions, Samuel has gone from confusion about area and perimeter to confidently mastering those skills and finishing all related problems unaided.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

My daughter is a fantastic reader but her maths was awful. We just couldn't get through to her even her school teachers gave up on her. I needed a professional to sit with her one on one at my convenience  and at a good price. Ezymath tutoring did all that for me, they were fantastic, the teacher we had was so patient with Chloe and they both got on really well. But more importantly Chloe now has a better understanding of numbers, we couldn't be more happy and would recommend them to anyone who wants to improve on their maths

So far its going really well with Monique.  She is very nice, approachable, flexible and encouraging

Yes l'm happy at the moment and Sebastian seems to like Kate. She comes and gets straight into it then finishes off with a brief summary of what they have been doing. Which is great. At the moment Sebastian has only had three sessions, so still too early to tell. However there was a day at school when they did some Maths and he said he found it much easier, which is fantastic to hear.

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 Woden Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Chapman Primary School.
