I believe that a good tutor can not only write out the solutions for students but also allow them to understand every process involved in creating the solution, such that they will be able to answer similar questions next time by themselves. A tutor can also communicate their experiences and the techniques used for effective studying. Tutors…

First and foremost, tutor should build the confidence of students by motivating and pointing out their areas of expertise. This can be done through identifying their strengths and weakness and their learning styles. Additionally, tutor should be able to use variety of strategies instead of relying only one way of explanation. For Example, if a…

Tutoring is very different to a typical classroom setting. Each class is unique and solely focused on the one student. This one-to-one learning experience is something many students wouldn’t normally get in a classroom. Naturally, they’ll be able to ask as many questions as they want. As a result, you’ll feel you’re making a real…

I think it is important for a maths tutor to know which concept of a question or topic the student doesn't understand, because if a tutor doesn't know that then they will not be able to explain it properly to the student. It is also important for the tutor to recognize if the student clearly gets the concept after they explain it as some students…

Local Reviews

The tutoring sessions with Dominic are going very well. He has certainly helped Kailiana to gain confidence and skills in maths, while keeping a calm, friendly, and easy-going mood for the tutoring sessions. As any 8 year old does, Kailiana can get distracted from time to time, but Dominic has always taken this in stride, and been very creative in engaging with Kailiana in order to retain her attention. For example, there was one instance where she jumped up out of nowhere and decided to feed her goldfish in the middle of them trying to solve some questions about volume. Once she got back to the table Dominic asked her about her fish, and then changed the objects in the question they were solving to fish. He effectively got her back on track and engaged her attention in a warm and gentle way. Kailiana looks forward to her tutoring sessions, with is another testament to the good work Dominic has been doing with her.
Olivia

Inside SeftonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Alessandro worked on mastering division skills and identifying divisibility by numbers like 2, 3, and 6, using quick tricks for recognition.

For Year 8, Mia focused on algebraic techniques such as expanding and factorising expressions, along with revising the use of indices.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Olivia tackled co-ordinate geometry—finding gradients—and explored congruency in triangles through practical problem sets.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 Maths, shortcuts in working were common—"he often resorts to doing a lot mentally, and then gets lost in his working"—making it difficult to trace mistakes, especially with algebra and negative numbers.

Homework was frequently incomplete or rushed; when attempted last-minute, this left him "freaking out that he doesn't remember what to do right before the lesson."

For a Year 4 student tackling multi-digit multiplication, confusion arose from misplacing numbers in columns, as one tutor noted he "struggles with the placement of numbers in the equation for 2 by 2 digit multiplication," which led to repeated errors despite knowing the steps.

Recent Achievements

One Sefton tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 9 student who's begun catching his own mistakes during algebra and now fixes them independently—previously, he'd wait for hints before correcting errors.

In a recent high school session, another student surprised himself by recalling and confidently applying all four tests to prove triangle congruency, something he found confusing just weeks ago.

Meanwhile, in primary sessions, a Year 4 student who used to hesitate when faced with multiplication challenges has memorised both the 5 and 10 times tables and now spots number patterns on his own without prompting.

What they say about our tutoring

Kelly is a fantastic tutor & lovely person who clicked with Emily immediately and Emily noticed her own improvement within days. Emily sat her Maths semester exam 3 weeks later after having Kelly there was a big improvement!!! Thank you for referring Kelly to Emily and we look forward to having her tutor Emily for as long as we can!

Working at EzyMath Tutoring is really rewarding. I have been able to work with students to build their confidence and evolve them into independent learners. You build relationships and trust with students so they feel comfortable with you - even if it is saying they don't understand! It's amazing to see them improve their maths skills with increased confidence. Even better is seeing them smile and light up with excitement when they tell you of their great achievements at school.

Eshan has been a great help to Georgina over the sessions she has seen him and she felt much more confident preparing for her mid-year exams (Y9).  I think she will get an A overall for maths this semester which is great given both math exams were quite difficult and the average score was much lower. She has also been asked to join the enrichment maths group from the beginning of next term.  Although Georgina is a little apprehensive about the step up, she knows it is a great opportunity to get exposure to more difficult work before things really step up a bit in Y10.  The school is very happy with her results and I feel confident that she will continue to do well, with the right support.  I feel there is much more potential upside for her to be gained through ongoing tutoring and it will be great to have Eshan's support as Georgina joins the enrichment stream at school next term.

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 Chester Hill Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Immaculate Heart of Mary Catholic Primary School.
