I think that this does vary student to student (haha sorry bit of an off question-answer!) But largely and for those that are shy it's being approachable and this means anything the student doesn't understand, the student should be eager to ask you if you are approachable. And for those who aren't so shy and often at a higher level too, my answer…

I believe the most important thing an english tutor can do is to be very clear and not convoluted when explaining topics, equations, etc. to students, as it can be very easy to get intimated as a student and end up confused. I believe it is also important not to assume any knowledge straight away from students but to intentionally ask what it is…

Take the time to ensure the student understands the concept and what the expectation is before moving on to the next topic.

My first priority is the…

I took the International Baccalaureate Diploma…

Inside South PerthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Riley worked through place value to support multiplication, then practiced short division using worded problems for real-world context.

In Year 8, Hannah focused on mean, median, mode, and range calculations along with large addition and subtraction tasks from the Year 8 syllabus.

For Year 9, Jay tackled trigonometry concepts including SOHCAHTOA as well as working with gradients and y-intercepts by linking tables to graphs during algebraic exercises.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 English, "written expression" stood out as a recurring challenge—one student's ideas were strong when spoken but "just needed to write it down," especially in creative writing where grammar and holistic articulation held them back.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 Maths lesson revealed over-reliance on familiar problems: notes were used well for standard tasks, but applying them to unfamiliar calculator questions was avoided.

A Year 7 student working on fractions and percentages hesitated to trust their own working and often looked for patterns instead of understanding concepts. This sometimes left mistakes hidden until revision sessions.

Recent Achievements

One South Perth tutor recently noticed a big change in a Year 10 student who had struggled to link fractions, decimals, and percentages—after several sessions, she could explain their interconnections on her own and used new strategies without prompting.

In Year 12, John moved from being hesitant about statistics to independently solving mode, median, range, and mean problems; he now asks for clarification rather than leaving answers blank.

Meanwhile, Riley in Year 5 went from guessing short division answers to working through problems fluently with just occasional place value hints. Last week he finished his worksheet without errors.

What they say about our tutoring

Working with Ezy Math Tutoring was great because all tutors are continuously supported in various ways. It is not only a teaching experience but also a learning experience. Tutors gain skills through work, weekly training and materials online. The continuous communication between tutors, students, parents and Ezy Math Tutoring is very important and valuable. 19th July 2012

Throughout my employment I received many helpful pieces of information from Ezy Math Tutoring, which detailed clever teaching strategies and techniques to help my students achieve their best. Using lesson plans to organise and prepare for my lessons is something that I was encouraged to do by Ezy Math Tutoring, which I hadn't used with students previous to my time with this company. This was very helpful both for me to have a clearer idea of my goal for each lesson, and also for my students to better understand what our aims were each week. During my employment it was evident that Ezy Math Tutoring always sought the satisfaction and best for its students as well as its tutors. It was a pleasure to work with this company. 19th July 2012

The biggest accomplishment any math tutor can have (myself including) is seeing the student progress, knowing that they understand and have the confidence to complete any task/question without fear. The key skills I got from math tutoring is being able to effectively communicate in a mentor manner. This is an essential skill for progression in almost every career path, as most careers will require you to train a new colleague, manage a team, or oversee a project, etc. I would strongly recommend Ezy math tutoring to anyone, they are professionals who strive to achieve the goals each student has in progressing towards understanding mathematics. 20th July 2012
