The most important thing a maths tutor can do for a student is to be a platform that naturally promotes their own learning. A tutor must be able to nurture the student's understanding whilst not overpowering them. Asking questions to the student is a great way of doing this. Being nurturing allows the student to gain confidence in themselves…

The most important thing a maths tutor can do for a student is first get comfortable with the student, this will allow the student to be able to freely ask any questions that they may have to the tutor. Secondly, a tutor should be patient with the student as there is no such thing as a bad student, only a bad teacher. If the teacher has patience…

A common misconception within tutoring is the difference between teaching and doing for.

Within reason, an improvement in ability is far more important than an improvement in grades. I excel at building a bond between my…

For me to become a successful tutor I always do my best to understand the student. This correlates to personal life too and making sure their well-being is sound. From the…

Local Reviews

Amber is a brilliant tutor - enthusiastic, knowledgeable and well prepared for each session. She makes the most of the time and has a great way of explaining things and yet still ensures the student is thinking for themselves. Gareth is feeling much more confident now and we are really pleased that we have Amber as his tutor to help him be his best for his upcoming final year at school.

Inside SheldonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Riya worked on decimal operations including rounding, addition, subtraction, and multiplication, as well as tackling worded problems involving decimals.

In Year 10, Michael focused on bivariate data analysis using Pearson's correlation coefficient and practiced note-taking strategies to help interpret statistical relationships.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Lucas explored applications of derivatives by graphing tangent lines and analyzing how changes in functions affect their graphs.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student, tackling velocity-time graph questions, struggled to collect all relevant details before planning responses—"he missed information hidden in the question," one tutor noted, leading to incomplete solutions.

In Year 10, messy layout in algebra problems meant errors weren't easily spotted or corrected, so extra time was spent retracing steps.

A Year 7 learner relied on memorizing how previous fraction questions looked instead of understanding the underlying process; when faced with a new format, confusion set in quickly.

In each case, clarity and confidence dropped as tasks grew less familiar or required flexible thinking.

Recent Achievements

One Sheldon tutor recently saw a Year 10 student who used to rush through probability questions now consistently list all variables and formulas before starting, which has helped him avoid the errors he made in past assignments.

In Year 11 maths, a student who previously struggled with logarithms was able to clearly explain when and why to apply them, showing real understanding rather than memorisation.

For a younger learner in Year 4, addition and multiplication had been confusing, but she can now solve problems confidently and even knows when to use LCM or GCD—she finished her worksheet without hesitation this week.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I came to Ezy Math tutoring honestly because tutoring seemed like the best thing that would fit into my timetable. What I didn't expect was how much I would enjoy teaching the students. I found myself excited to come to tutoring, committed to doing all the prep work and checking up on my students before and after a big exam. I'm not gonna lie, its a lot of work but with even more reward as you see the students you're teaching slowly start to understand and apply their content. I felt my greatest achievement was taking a 60% achieving student in the second year 10 maths class and encouraging and working with him until he was hitting mid-90s marks and had been accepted into ext 1 maths for this year. I'm sad to leave Ezy math because I really enjoyed tutoring but I Would definitely recommend it to anyone. The support at Ezy math was the best. Even though I never met a staff member I felt they were great at checking up on me and helping me when I needed it!

My biggest accomplishment while working with EzyMath was learning how to organise myself more effectively and juggle multiple jobs at a time, which has turned out to be a very useful skill. Why I came to work for EzyMath was because I wanted to help students gain the confidence they need to complete high school and the HSC because I remember what it felt like for me at the time! I got useful skills out of the tutoring experience - soft skills and organisational skills.I would recommend EzyMath as an employer to people who are organised and dedicated because they can genuinely get a lot out of it and I would definitely recommend EzyMath to prospective students.

I joined EzyMath more than 2 years ago. The admin has always been around to help and replied to my emails promptly. I was offered a number of students, few of which I continued for 2 years. My biggest accomplishment as an EzyMath tutor was to help students grow, as well as benefit from it for my own growth. I started tutoring a student when he was starting his year 7 and tutored him till he was starting year 9. I hope that the student benefited from my guidance, but there was a lot I could learn from the session as well. Working with young children has been a tremendous benefit since they possess such vibrant energy. I came to work at EzyMath as a uni student looking for a part time work. EzyMath was professional, motivated and constantly taking feedback from the tutors and the students to enrich the tutoring experience for all. I would certainly recommend tutoring for EzyMath, for both clients and prospective tutors.

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 Capalaba Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Luke's Catholic Parish School.
