First and foremost, a tutor should be able to connect with students on a personal level. The tutor should facilitate students to seek knowledge for themselves. The tutor should establish new ways to help students learn how to do work independently. I possess excellent organizational and communication skills. I also have good subject knowledge and…

The most important thing in tutoring is patience...lots of patience. It's often the case that repeating a concept - however many times, and sometimes in different ways - helps the student really come to grips with it. I think the mark of a good teacher is how much repetition they can tolerate in the course of their instruction. My main strength is…

Firstly identifying the student's various strengths and areas of improvement is very significant to give a general idea of which topics to focus/skills on the most whilst teaching them. Another key area that a tutor should investigate further is the student's most effective way of learning specific concepts e.g. visual, written, auditory etc. A …

Help them gain interest in what they're trying to study/learn. The problem with kids not wanting to learn isn't because the subject is hard, usually it's because they have no interest in the subject whatsoever. There's always a way to show someone the appeal of every single subject. It can be hard but it's very possible and many teachers and…

Be empathetic... Often students are going through a lot more than just school and/or sport, and sometimes tutors do not realise this when they're loading them with a lot of information. By being empathetic and patient that tutor is able to consider that needs of the student and alter sessions accordingly to ensure the greatest bang for the buck. I…

Nupoor has been great for Charlotte and her confidence is improving.

Inside South PenrithTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Katie worked on applying the Pythagoras theorem to complex word problems and practised interpreting probability scenarios involving cards and dice.

For Year 10, Isabella received support with her maths assignment, focusing particularly on vector proofs and resolving issues in understanding key concepts.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Olivia prepared for an upcoming exam by revising trigonometric graphs and log laws, tackling targeted practice questions for consolidation.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student hesitated to show full working in indices and trigonometry, with comments such as "she was trying to memorise the answer rather than how to work out the questions." This avoidance led to confusion when facing new question formats.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student's written solutions on Pythagoras and fractions lacked clarity—errors in squaring numbers or missing steps slowed progress during review.

In primary, one child struggled to add beyond five without finger-counting, which made basic calculations laborious and eroded confidence when circling multiple-choice answers.

Unclear written processes often left gaps that became stumbling blocks during revision or tests.

Recent Achievements

One South Penrith tutor recently noticed a Year 11 student who'd struggled with log laws and trigonometric graphs finally start using log rules confidently and finish graphing tasks without second-guessing every step.

In a Year 8 session, a student who was hesitant to ask for help before now stops the lesson to clarify what she doesn't understand, instead of just guessing—she's also tackling more complex probability questions independently.

Meanwhile, one of our primary students who used to mix up repeated addition and multiplication can now explain the difference between "4x" and "x⁴," even giving her own examples during the lesson.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are very happy with Simon. Ryan has taken to the tutoring really well. One on one has really helped as he cannot get distracted by other kids and Simon keeps him on his toes and listening attentively.

I would like to say that Miranda is an outstanding, caring and patient tutor. She has a gift for working with kids. She is a huge asset to your company and the ezymath family.

We are thrilled with Ross he is so knowledgeable and has a great rapport with James already. Very happy customers.

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 Penrith City Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Penrith South Public School.
