A tutor needs to provide encouragement and support to guide students to a point where they can thoroughly understand the material. It is vital that a tutor also has an extensive understanding of the subject matter to guide the student. I believe that I am able to explain difficult concepts easily and in an understandable way. I tend to be patient…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to listen and be compasionate. By listening a student one is able to understand how they learn, and what they especially need to learn. Furthermore by being compasionate the student understands that you are trying to help them, and will feel more comfortable learning with you. Patient and…

I think that a tutor should help foster understanding of difficult concepts so that the student is able to do the work themselves, rather than doing the work for them. Additionally, going over the work with them, and showing them how they can improve is important. Ensuring that they understand ways they can get better helps more than telling them,…

I believe that every individual learns things in different ways. In a classroom, each teacher will have their own way of presenting and teaching the content, and this method is most likely to be consistent throughout the year. Whilst this may cater for some students, and help them excel in the particular subject, it might not be suitable for other…

Baden is an excellent tutor, and he did great work.
Kat, Tarragindi

Inside TarragindiTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Ava practiced converting between decimals, percentages, and fractions, and solved chance questions using probability expressed as fractions.

Year 9 student Chloe worked through algebraic skills including expanding brackets and factorising quadratic expressions.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ben focused on the quadratic equation alongside techniques for solving linear equations and manipulating algebraic terms.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student working on polynomials needs improvement checking back over her work to ensure she doesn't make simple mistakes—overlooking this step led to avoidable errors persisting through solutions.

In Year 9 algebra, one student hesitated to trust their own working, repeatedly questioning themselves and slowing progress; as the tutor noted, he doubted himself constantly which doesn't allow him to reach his full potential.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student's maths written work was sometimes unclear because numbers were placed in the wrong columns during multiplication—this made it harder for both student and tutor to spot where confusion began.

Recent Achievements

One Tarragindi tutor recently saw a Year 10 student move from frequent mistakes in expanding algebraic brackets to completing every question correctly and without hesitation.

Another high schooler who previously struggled to structure persuasive writing now drafts PESTO paragraphs independently, remembering all parts without reminders.

In primary sessions, a younger student who once guessed during oral reading now pauses to sound out difficult words, showing more care and accuracy with each line.

The same student finished his latest story plan entirely on his own—something he'd never attempted before.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are very happy with the way things have started with Todd. India is finding her sessions very helpful and Todd is very patient and constructive.

Our tutor Adrian was excellent for my daughter to help "fill the gaps" prior to starting high school this year. Adrian made maths fun, was personable and professional. Ezy Maths provided excellent service & communication .

Mathew and Phi are working well together. Phi is a lovely young man, very polite and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Phi as he is building a good connection with Matthew and has been very patient, repeating his instructions and challenging Mathew to think about what he is doing.

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 Annerley Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Wellers Hill State School.
