Ideally, I want to instill the same sense of wonder and love that I have for mathematics in the students. This won't work for all students, of course, so failing that I think an english tutor should be able to teach a student how to think for themselves - it's one thing to be shown how to get an answer, and it's another thing entirely to be taught…

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to help the student learn in a way that works for them.

The staff were very helpful - all the way from setting up through to the actual tutorials.. The tutor was also one of the best I've ever had for Math. He actually helped me understand how it works, not just memorise formulas.

Inside Woody PointTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Murray worked on building his fluency with multiplication facts, especially the 9x tables, and practiced mental addition strategies to move away from finger counting.

Year 8 student Jalen focused on solving two-step algebraic equations involving expanding brackets, as well as practicing substitution into algebraic expressions and tackling questions with powers and square roots.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Callum reviewed trigonometry topics including the sine and cosine rules using diagnostic exam questions, and also revised scientific notation and significant figures to prepare for upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 algebra, one student often forgot to expand the second term in brackets—"sometimes Jalen forgets to expand the 2nd term when expanding a single bracket"—which led to repeated errors on homework even after mastering the process in-session.

For a senior student, exam performance suffered due to pressure and unfamiliar worded problems; as noted, "he does feel the pressure in exams," resulting in mistakes not seen during practice.

Meanwhile, a primary student relied heavily on finger-counting for addition and was only confident with a few times tables, which slowed progress in multi-step calculations.

Recent Achievements

A recent Woody Point tutoring session saw Callum, a senior high school student, move from hesitancy to confidently solving sine and cosine rule problems he'd previously struggled with—by the end, he could tackle even the trickier examples independently.

In Year 8, Jalen has started catching his own mistakes in algebra; after making small errors on homework, he now checks his work more carefully and gets single-bracket equations correct without prompting.

Meanwhile, Murray in primary school used to count on his fingers for the 9 times tables but now recalls them quickly using memory tricks and is less reliant on finger counting.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Thank you very much to Jason, he was a great tutor and an incredibly nice person, we appreciate his efforts.

Dana was fantastic, so good that I passed my exam and got 98 percent in maths. Thank you.

I would be more than happy to be part of Ezy Math Tutoring again to continue motivating, encouraging and making more students feel that mathematics are easy and fun. I will never forget the day - the day before I left Sydney - when I went to one of my students' house to say good bye. That day, Mattheu let me know that he had been upgraded in his maths class, from 4th to 3rd level. When we started our tutoring sessions, he was on the 6th level of his maths course, and during the first two months, every day I asked him how everything at school had been that day, he replied "it was boring". Over that year that we were having our maths classes, he was being upgraded from 6th, to 5th, then 4th and finally 3rd that day when I went to his place to say good bye. Before I left his place, he said to me "Andres, I want to be a doctor, I want to study a PhD, like you... thank you". That very moment, when you are able to help others, contribute to society, etc, is simply priceless. Being a tutor was a great experience and I am still missing my students.

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 Redcliffe Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Southern Cross Catholic College - Woody Point Campus.
