A tutor can engage the mind of a child and develop a love for the subject within the child. Education has the power to broaden horizons and inculcate a sense of satisfaction which I believe can be brought in by the help of a tutor. Being able to communicate at a level that the child understands is a must. As a tutor, you must be able to build a…

A tutor must not only teach children the subject, but also must prepare them to handle real world situations when it comes to applying what they have learnt in class.

As I have mentioned above, every student's different capabilities and strategies to learn in their own way need to be considered before even beginning to tutor them. If a tutor teaches without having this in mind, there are chances that even after months of teaching, the student will not grasp the information as well as he/she probably could if…

One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is not to put more pressure on the student but make the concepts that they struggle with more easier to understand by providing examples and easier or more logical ways to approach questions.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help faciliate and devolop an independant learning process. By this I mean helping the student to learn, by not just giving them the answer but by helping them to reach the answer on their own.

Inside West FootscrayTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Angela focused on adding, subtracting, multiplying, and simplifying fractions using written examples.

For Year 10, Eleanor worked through regression analysis—including interpreting results on a graphing calculator—and practiced questions from Chapters 3A–C.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Sydnie reviewed slopes and rates by applying linear relations to real-world problems such as speed and water flow calculations.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often relied on a calculator for simple division (e.g., "1000/5"), which slowed progress on more complex tasks and reduced confidence in mental maths.

In Year 11 English, a student kept rewriting analysis paragraphs—even those praised by teachers—due to anxiety about finding the 'perfect' answer, rather than editing for clarity or building on strong points; as one tutor noted, "she rewrote good sentences out of self-doubt."

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student struggled to keep track of assignment dates and sometimes forgot to annotate key passages before assessments, making revision rushed and less targeted.

Recent Achievements

A West Footscray tutor recently noticed that Amelia now confidently applies concepts like regression analysis and can even explain her thinking out loud after reviewing practice problems.

In English, Eleanor used to rewrite entire drafts instead of editing, but she's begun breaking her writing into steps—first outlining, then making targeted edits—and now supports her arguments with clearer evidence.

Meanwhile, Sydnie had always been reluctant to ask for help with long division; last session she asked specific questions about the process and completed all her calculations without a calculator.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

It has been a pleasure working for Ezy Math Tutoring. I've never seen an organisation (for lack of a better word) so dedicated and organised. I came to work for Ezy Math Tutoring because of two reasons: my prior experience with tutoring and my need for a part-time job. I sought to utilise my abilities and help out students who wanted my help. My biggest accomplishment would be to see my students, grow in their studies and become more confident. I was exceedingly happy to be able to have facilitated his academic and personal growth. Ezy Math Tutoring is unlike any other tutoring service in that it really tries to present the highest calibre of tutors and constantly motivate and mould them to become even better tutors. In turn, this represents a higher success rate with students and as such, everyone is satisfied. I would recommend EMT to both fellow tutors and prospective parents/students alike. My time at Ezy Math Tutoring has been great and I wish the company, its tutors and its students well for the future.

I would certainly recommend Ezymath to prospective students. Having a tutor who is close in location and able to work at developing a relationship with each individual student can greatly assist students in discovering how to succeed in maths. I would also strongly recommend Ezymath's professional development activities and CEP modules to other prospective tutors. I have appreciated the important learning lessons within the CEP modules and have applied this to my tutoring and used it to help my students. It has also been fantastic to develop relationships with my students and their parents over the past year and a half. In this time I have seen my students grow personally and academically. One particular grade 7 student I have seen progress from low B's to high A's within the time I have been tutoring him. However, my greatest achievement during the time I have been tutoring is to have helped my two current students to realise just how much hard work they need to put in to do their very best with maths. Both of these students have seen considerable improvements in their results as we have developed habits such as regularly completing revision quizzes, developing key memory pegs & triggers to remember strategies and rules. Once my students discovered that practicing such techniques and putting in so much regular revision time improved their results, they were more motivated and determined to continue putting in such efforts to keep improving their marks.

Tutoring with Ezymaths has been a great experience for me. When I joined two years ago I thought I wouldn't last the first month let alone the next two years. It's amazing how organised the company is and how much help you receive as a new tutor. I joined the company to earn some extra cash and the benefits of learning about teaching were a bonus. Ezymath tutoring is a network of students, teachers and tutors who share information to improve the way we teach our children. Every student has a different way of learning and learns at a different pace. The benefit of gaining a tutor through a company means there is no single mind teaching your child. The collective advice and experience of the tutors within the company allows us to teach your children in the most effective possible manner. I personally have gained great experience to put on my resume and nothing is more pleasing there to see a child improve their education and confidence to push themselves further in life. If you are considering a position at the company or just looking for some extra help for your child you won't find a better class of trained tutors.

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 Footscray West—or at your child's school (with permission), like Footscray West Primary School.
