Then convey your thinking to the student. I am patient and I am good at predicting what student may find difficult in a certain exam/test. I am also adaptive to individual dilemmas…

The most important thing a tutor could do for a student is show them that every student responds to education in the same way or at the same pace and whichever way they process information is perfectly normal. The goal is to maximize learning, in the way that works best for the students. I have seen this significantly reduce academic frustrations…

I have rarely ever used the same method of explaining a concept/theory on multiple students.

It is also crucial for tutors to have time-management and resourceful qualities in order to ensure academic development in students.…

A tutor can encourage a student that they can do it. There is no word as no. Teacher's need to imbibe confidence in students especially those who are failing to acheive and give them a reason to do well in their studies. Teacher's need to be patient as well. These are some of my strengths: Patience Kindness Sense of…

In turn, this…

Thus, tutors like myself need to be able to present concepts that the student can understand, i.e., using…

Local Reviews

Ezy Maths have been Fabulous ! My children are growing in confidence and now are receiving awards at school for their maths. Highly recommend Ezy maths for tutoring.
Samantha, Tennyson Point

Inside Tennyson PointTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Amber worked on her Chemistry worksheet focused on radioactive decay and also reviewed chemical bonding for an upcoming assessment.

Year 10 student Imogen practised solving algebraic equations and changing the subject of formulas, using guided examples from her maths text.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Michael concentrated on logarithms in mathematics and motion in one dimension for physics, working through problems to strengthen understanding of both topics.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student in mathematics often worked out answers mentally rather than setting out clear, step-by-step working on paper—he tends to work out the answers in his head instead of writing out his working out, one tutor noted.

This habit made it harder to spot small calculation errors, especially in algebra and inequalities, and meant revision was less effective later.

Meanwhile, a senior economics student had incomplete notes for case study topics like financial ratios, making exam preparation challenging when linking concepts under time pressure.

In both cases, organization and visible process steps limited recall during tests.

Recent Achievements

In Year 8 maths, Tyler had previously struggled with algebraic fractions but now independently works through complex problems, applying skills from earlier lessons without prompting.

A Year 11 chemistry student who often hesitated to try questions solo has started completing most chemical reaction exercises on her own during sessions, only asking for help when truly needed.

Meanwhile, a primary school student who used to avoid multiplying and dividing negative numbers is now confidently using number lines and finishing related worksheets each week. Last session, she solved every question without skipping any steps.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Sophie is very happy with Jane as a tutor.  Jane is extremely diligent - we have the complication of the UK syllabi and Jane has taken a lot of trouble in her own time, to check up on what Sophie should be learning !

Hello and thank you for your email. We are happy with Philip's progress in these few weeks as you suggest I am sure more time is needed for him to be more confident . We are also happy with his tutor he is very well spoken, polite and gets on well with my son so far.

Thanks Gene, so far, Jamie's response has been very good.  He has had 2 lessons to date, as last week was cancelled at our request (he was away on camp). Jamie has responded very well to Eshan, who's approach is unassuming, gentle, but persuasive and constructive.  Jamie actually looks forward to spending time with Eshan to teach him his Maths strategies. We look forward to seeing Eshan again next week. Thanks also for the newsletter.  I have to say that I think your supportive written material is very useful!

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