Psychology Tutor Ferny Grove, QLD
I think the most important think a tutor can do for a student is teach them to think independently and creatively. A student needs to learn to be able to view things from different perspectives and formulate their own opinions and solutions. I am patient, good at working with children with diverse needs, and I am a creative thinker who can explain…

Local Reviews

Staff at EzyMath Tutoring are helpful and knowledgeable. It was so easy to set up a tutor for my daughter. The process was seamless. The tutor made contact with me straight away to arrange a suitable time and the tutoring itself is going well.

Inside Samford ValleyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Grace focused on rearranging and solving linear equations as well as expanding brackets with practical examples.

In Year 9, Ethan worked through Pythagoras' Theorem and trigonometry using diagrams to support problem-solving.

For Year 10, Mia tackled calculating surface area of 3D shapes and applied these skills to real-world assignment tasks involving volume and capacity.

Recent Challenges

She hesitated when separating complex shapes, even after identifying the right method. This second-guessing slowed progress for the Year 7 student working on area and surface area.

In Year 10 algebra, steps for rearranging equations were sometimes skipped or incomplete, leading to confusion when checking answers later.

For a senior student tackling compound interest in Maths Methods, over-reliance on calculator shortcuts meant some compounding period errors went unnoticed until review.

A Year 3 learner found it challenging to consistently carry remainders in division—missing marks on mental maths checks each time this happened.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Samford Valley noticed some genuine breakthroughs across different year levels recently. One Year 10 student, who used to skip steps when working with the null factor law, is now expanding brackets independently and checking their answers without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student has moved from confusion about unit conversions to correctly applying conversion factors on their own for rates and ratios during lessons.

On the primary side, a Year 4 student—who previously guessed at time questions—now reads both "minutes past" and standard formats accurately and even explained their method out loud before solving new examples.

What they say about our tutoring

Everything is going well so far. The tutoring has been working well. Jamie seems to connect with Kevin. We are away next week but hopefully I can keep the momentum up with Jamie!

I have been extremely pleased with our ezymath tutor, Lawrence.  Apparently "he knows everything about maths".  He has worked diligently and patiently with my daughter and has managed to keep her focused throughout each lesson.  I also found the reports he provided about her progress detailed and considered and very helpful in providing feedback about her strengths, gaps and progress. I found ezymath tutoring very professional and easy to deal with.  There were no contracts, which makes it very flexible, the price was reasonable and the tutor came to our house. They provided a tutor who was current with the HSC curriculum and very knowledgeable about his subject.   The feedback reports that were provided at the end of each term were very detailed about all areas of the learning - both the positive and the areas she needed to work on. I would definitely recommend ezymath tutoring to other parents - it has been a very positive experience....

Bethan, gets on really well with Sydney. Sydney is enjoying her lessons and she is already getting a better understanding of her maths.

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 Arana Hills Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Samford Valley Steiner School.
