I believe that a tutor should be there for a student, to support and answer questions as a means of enriching their understanding. They should also be flexible to a student’s needs, such as creating plans around their current studies or providing extra materials to further their knowledge. I am flexible and adaptable, focusing on the student’s…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is help them understand. Memorising content is useful, but without understanding, the brain soon discards it as unimportant. Understanding allows students to see the bigger picture and how concepts tie together. Memorising forces students into a box, where questions outside of what they’ve…

The most important thing a tutor can do for their student is to let them learn on their own.

My strength as a tutor is how I communicate concepts. I…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to guide them towards the right path in their studies.

From my point of view, identifying students' ability is most important as the effective learning always occur when they work on the zone of proximal development, the difference between what a learner can do without help, and what they can't do. If both teachers and students work within it, the success is almost guaranteed. I think the 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.
