The most important thing about tutoring is not to be teacher. There is no point of me repeating what the teacher taught, but instead spend time assessing what the student, does not understand about the course which is being learnt. Together with student come to understand of why perhaps this is a difficult thing to grasp and work together to…

Local Reviews

The ease with which I was assigned an appropriate tutor for my daughter was fantastic, which took alot of pressure off my shoulders. And the independent follow up from the staff at Ezy Math tutoring was/is very professional. I am feeling so comfortable & happy with this service and am at ease with the benefits it will bring my daughter.

Inside TanglewoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 Bella focused on English comprehension and practiced identifying homonyms and onomatopoeia using worksheets, while also tackling maths problems around time and symmetry.

In Year 9, Jeremy reviewed trigonometry concepts—finding unknown angles and side lengths in right triangles—and practiced expanding brackets and simplifying algebraic expressions to prepare for upcoming exams.

Meanwhile, Year 10 Willow worked through order of operations questions, solved equations with integers, and spent time adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions to boost her confidence with more complex calculations.

Recent Challenges

In Year 12 Maths, one student prepared for "all the basics" but was unready for deeper exam questions—being spread too thin left them unable to tackle unfamiliar problem types.

In Year 10, a tutor noted, "he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors," making it harder to spot and fix mistakes.

For a Year 8 student, forgetting key materials—like coming without paper—meant calculations couldn't be completed during the lesson.

Meanwhile, a primary student's PowerPoint draft had persistent formatting issues; editing was avoided rather than addressed, so small errors lingered across slides.

Recent Achievements

One Tanglewood tutor noted that a Year 10 student who used to hesitate with algebra is now tackling linear equations more independently, even asking thoughtful questions to clarify steps instead of waiting for help.

Another high schooler recently recognised and corrected her own errors while working through fraction problems—something she previously struggled to spot without prompting.

In primary sessions, Bella has begun proofreading her writing unprompted and double-checking her answers in maths, having earlier rushed through work without reviewing.

At the end of her last lesson, she confidently completed a spelling challenge she'd found daunting just weeks before.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are very Happy with our tutor Isabelle and communicate directly with her about our and her availability. We have only one session left this year as Isabelle and /or India will be unavailable after that. We hope Isabelle can continue to coach India from the second week of term 1 2015 when India starts high school

We met Aprinder, and he is a delightful young man, and he gets on well with our daughter Rebecca. She likes how he has so many different ways to show her how to solve a problem! I do understand that it will take some time until we see results, but I have a good feeling that she will excel down the track! Thank you for your prompt service.

We have been extremely happy with Mihika. Luca has always been a good Maths student but we felt that he needed a little push on year 7 to get him into good habits & not get behind. We feel that with the help of Mihika he had been able to achieve this. We will make sure to recommend your service to anyone looking for tutoring services Thank you

Maths tutoring in Tanglewood

We have all had the experience of a "bad teacher" and we know it's not pleasant. Often the teacher is simply a bad match for that particular student rather than being a "bad teacher" in general but in either case the student has a serious problem. This is why many parents contact us for a private tutor - their child just can't "get it" when their teacher is teaching.

It's incredible how one explanation results in more confusion whereas another results in that "aha" feeling we all love so much! It is really a matter of getting the "right" tutor and not the "best" one. We see this every day in our work. A tutor might have hundreds of hours of experience and might have received dozens of testimonials from students, however, even such a tutor doesn't click with all students. Every tutor gets bad feedback sometimes. It's all about getting the right fit and this is what we do!

We will organise a 1-on-1 maths tutor in Tanglewood to come to your home at a time of your choosing. They will be a local Tanglewood maths tutor so scheduling lessons will be easy. Also, no booking fees, no minimum terms, no cancellation costs, no nonsense! And here's the best thing: your first lesson is a trial. So if you feel that the tutor wasn't a good fit, we'll organise someone else. It's our Good Fit Guarantee.

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 Kingscliff Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Bogangar Public School.
