Inside South BallinaTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
In primary, tutoring often targets core arithmetic—addition, subtraction, times tables, fractions, and building number sense—while also pushing for deeper comprehension, not just rote rules. High school sessions shift to algebraic thinking, graphing, interpreting questions, and developing strong exam strategies. There’s a big emphasis on breaking down word problems, revisiting tricky homework, and test prep for NAPLAN or semester exams, always tailored to what each student finds hardest right now.
Recent Challenges
Some primary students rush through comprehension or maths tasks without fully reading instructions, leading to incomplete or off-target answers. In high school, it’s common for students to have scattered or unclear working, which makes multi-step problems harder to check and fix. Other frequent hurdles include forgetting materials, leaving homework unfinished, or spending revision time catching up on missed basics instead of moving forward—all of which can hold back progress and lead to confusion.
Recent Achievements
Tutors are noticing students becoming more proactive during lessons—regularly checking their own work, spotting errors, and making corrections without being asked. There’s a clear shift toward students verbalising their steps in maths and explaining their reasoning aloud, rather than rushing through problems. Tutors also report that learners are reviewing their test results with more care and taking the initiative to improve, showing greater confidence and ownership of their progress.
What they say about our tutoring
I decided to start tutoring with EzyMath in order to gain some teaching experience while studying education at university. The confidence and knowledge this job has given me is second to none; working one on one with students can be a challenging experience, but it is endlessly rewarding. I was most impressed with how EzyMath provided ongoing support and learning programs to their tutors, providing us with teaching tips and skills to use with our clients. My best accomplishment during my time as a tutor would have been taking my ESL student from a C- in English to an A grade. I could see how pleased she was with herself, and the sense of achievement was shared between us. I encourage all education students to take on tutoring for extra experience, as it will provide you with a head start that will boost your teaching practice. There are plenty of tutoring companies to choose from, however if you are looking for great communication, training, support and professionalism, make EzyMath your first choice.
Ezy Math Tutoring is a great way for tutors to expose themselves to a wide variety of students across different age gaps and different subjects. Tutors are given great flexibility and choice with regards to which students they would like to tutor and in what locations. Ezy Math Tutoring provided great support throughout my time with them and consistent advice. Seeing my students improve and gain confidence over time was both rewarding and satisfying. I would recommend Ezy Math Tutoring for prospective clients and tutors.
We did very much like Jacinta - particularly impressed at her efforts to engage Eliza by planning lessons around her interests (eg Harry Potter) and strengths which are more visual than anything else. Jacinta did a great job.
