The biggest thing would be to help students understand that ignorance is not failure. Just because they don't know something "basic", that does not mean they are worse than others, or are stupider, or are not going to succeed. It simply means they were not taught in a way that makes sense to them. This could be for a number of reasons, and not…

Offer another way of learning that teachers aren't able to. Teachers have to teach a multitude of students so if a single student in lagging behind the class, they aren't able to help. That is where tutors come in, tutors help students with specific areas of study and also prepares the student for exams and assignments in order for the student to…

Make sure that the student is comfortable with your way of teaching and is actively involved. Tutoring is not only about jabbering stuff even though the student doesn’t understand a single thing. You have to take it slow and steady until your student is confident enough and can explain the same concept back to you even well. - calmness…

I believe if I can make a difference in the student's life such that they are at a better place from when I began teaching them and If I am actually able to see quantifiable results. Then it's really a win win for the both of us. I have very good foundational knowledge on things I prepare to teach. I have very good communication skills which makes…

The most important things a tutor can do are grow to understand the student so they can best help them. I think that if the tutor understands a student, if they have a strong rapport then they can identify a student's weak and strong points and work to solidify their strengths and mitigate their weaknesses. Although I have no formal tutoring…

In all the years I have had tutoring of my children I have never received a progress report so this is great to see. Wil felt very comfortable with Danielle.

Inside ShortlandTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Ruby focused on integration techniques involving logarithms and exponentials, and practised applying the trapezoidal rule to estimate areas under curves.

Year 9 student Sebastian worked through exam questions covering quadratic equations as well as similarity and probability, revisiting key examples from recent assessments.

For Christian in Year 8, sessions included targeted practice with area and volume problems using diagrams, along with statistics worksheets to consolidate understanding before his upcoming test.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9, a student struggled to identify how to start more complex area and perimeter questions; as one tutor noted, "he needed prompting to get started with the questions."

In Year 11, a student expressed that time pressure during exams led to rushing and minor errors in quadratics.

Another Year 12 student avoided writing full working for algebraic proofs, making it difficult to spot calculation slips until the end.

When tackling parametric equations in senior years, incomplete homework on set revision tasks meant gaps persisted before assessments—extra practice was set but not always completed before tests.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Shortland noticed Ruby, a high school student, hit a milestone after struggling with integration; she can now confidently rewrite equations for integration and recently earned a 78 in her maths report—her best yet.

Another secondary student who used to make small mistakes during tests is now independently spotting and correcting his own errors without prompting.

Meanwhile, Sebastian (Year 7) had found graphing daunting at first, but last session he tackled harder end-of-chapter questions much faster than before and even reached the enrichment problem, showing clear growth in both speed and willingness to try challenges.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Hi Erica, everything good so far. Isaac is lovely and Adam appears to be relating well to him. He has had 2 recent Math tests and has seemed more relaxed about them so I think we're seeing some short term gains already.

Hi Erica, Yes all seems to be going well with Sean's tutoring. He responds well to Andy. Thanks

I came to work for Ezy Math towards the end of my first year of university to gain more experience for my degree and resume, and to keep an on-going job with other jobs which came and went over the years. I was able to deal with various teaching and learning situations which have informed the way I deal with students in the classroom. I'm much more articulate and authoritative when dealing with potentially difficult situations. In terms of expectations, I'm able to plan, organise and set expectations of students' goals as a result of some bad experiences which, overall, have contributed to my own skills as a teacher/tutor. I would recommend Ezy Math to students who need help. To other tutors, sometimes it may be tough, and students may be difficult, but overall the experience is great and you'll learn a lot about being an independent worker and developing interpersonal skills which you'll need for future jobs and later years of university. It is particularly rewarding with students - seeing improvements about the way they view and approach Math as a subject, and even enjoying it as a subject. For clients, Ezy Math tutors will work with you to help your child's needs. In the long term, I know that the process of tutoring with Ezy Math should assist or allow you to better understand your child's learning needs. Overall,  Ezy Math gave me starting experience which over the years has lead to other jobs. Now I continue to private tutor, and work with particular tutoring companies which cater to selective school students. I started as a first year and now I'm in 4th year honours student. I think that Ezy Math is a great way to start off and a great way to learn responsibility and job balance as a first, second or even third year university student.

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 Wallsend Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Awabakal Environmental Education Centre.
