Be encouraging - Student's won't understand something straight away and this can be a source of discouragement for them. The last thing they need is a tutor who refuses to acknowledge this. Constantly encouraing the student will help them realise it will only be a matter of time until they nail a concept. Be a friend - The idea of a tutor is to…

I think it's a question of what a tutor can BE rather than do. I found in my experience that I always responded to teachers who were enthusiastic and portrayed a genuine care for the learning of the student. In a metaphorical sense, the tutor must think like a student in an empathetic way rather than merely be a one way stream of instruction. If a…

Finding out whether a student is a visual, auditory or kinesthetic learner is important. By discovering how the student learns best, I believe he will be able to reach his true potential.

The most important things that a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, are motivating the students to learn on their own as well as arming them with the tools and study skills. The motivation to learn is critical, since the tutor can teach the material, but at the end of the day, it is the student who has to master it. Without such…

Inside SandringhamTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student covered solving for missing values in trigonometric functions (sine, cosine, tangent) and tackled real-world word problems involving trigonometry.

In Year 11 Chemistry, work focused on balancing chemical equations and calculating limiting reagents and unknown moles.

Meanwhile, a Year 12 student reviewed acids and bases with an emphasis on titrations, using step-by-step practice to reinforce concepts.

Recent Challenges

A recurring challenge in Year 10–11 mathematics has been incomplete revision between sessions; as one tutor put it, "I end up having to spend the next week covering what I went through the previous week." This cycle delays progress and leaves less time for new material before exams.

In Year 7 algebra, skipping written steps—especially with cross multiplication—meant errors crept in but weren't visible for correction.

For a Year 3 English task, homework was often misplaced or left unfinished, with work scattered across loose pages instead of kept in the provided booklet, making review and improvement harder.

Recent Achievements

One Sandringham tutor noticed a Year 11 student who previously struggled to stay focused now working through chemistry calculations—like titration and molar mass—on her own, even explaining her steps aloud without prompting.

A Year 8 boy, who used to rush homework with errors, surprised his tutor by redoing a NAPLAN quiz carefully and getting it all correct after missing questions the week before.

Meanwhile, in Year 3, Max—who often hesitated with spelling tests—spelled out all ten "-ai" and "-ay" words correctly for the first time, finishing the list independently and putting schoolwork first.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

EzyMath is great for the busy working family as the tutors come to your place at an agreed time to suit the family. The rate is very competitive and the written reports are a valuable source of information on a student's progress. The tutor was conscientious and went out of her way to obtain appropriate resources for our son. She was reliable and flexible and made our son feel at ease and more confident with his studies.

Arielle finds Ivan explains concepts really well and she seems to get on well with him , which is also important! Certainly she feels he is more helpful than the previous tutor and she doesn't dread the lesson like she used to before and manages to be alert for the whole hour. This is a big improvement on the previous tutoring experience!

We are more than happy with Kancelot. He and Rohan seem to get along well, he is punctual and polite , and is also helping Rohan improve his maths skills.

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 Sans Souci Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like The Scots College, Brighton Preparatory School.
