I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to build their confidence. It's not just about helping them get the right answerâ”it's about helping them believe that they can get there on their own. When a student feels supported, understood, and encouraged, they’re more willing to try, ask questions, and grow. A tutor…

I believe the ability to be adaptable and always open to changing one's teaching methods to suit a student's learning style is key to an effective student-teacher relationship. Listening to a student and trying to work around their needs is definitely one of the most important things that can be done for a student. Having graduated high school…

The most important thing is to be flexible and non-judgemental. You have to be open to different challenges that the student may be facing beyond the subject. Each student is different and has different ways to learn and as such your teaching method should reflect this. I think my strengths are that I am patient but firm when teaching my students.…

I believe as a tutor, it is important to teach the subject to the student in a way that is enjoyable while still delivering the knowledge across. It is important that the tutor is not simply feeding the student equations or tricks to achieve good marks, but that the tutor is helping the student understand the topic enough to be able to solve…

Local Reviews

Ezymath tutoring provided us with a very capable math tutor, Brianna. The company has been very easy to deal with and I would certainly recommend them. They matched my daughter with the exact tutor that my daughter hoped for Already the tutoring has shown dividends with my daughter doing well in her year 8 math exam after only 2 teaching sessions.
Garry, Glen Iris

Inside Glen IrisTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Jack worked on graphing linear equations from two points and reviewed Pythagoras' Theorem alongside basic trigonometric ratios.

In Year 10, Mac tackled practice problems on the unit circle and prepared for a trigonometry exam by focusing on specific questions he found challenging.

For Year 5, Caleb revised long multiplication and division, as well as Roman numerals, using step-by-step examples to build confidence with these foundational maths skills.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student repeatedly avoided completing assigned online school tasks and skipped text examples, meaning core practice was missed ("Jack needs to attempt more of the questions from the text").

In Year 11 mathematics, forgetting to bring key notes and relying heavily on calculator shortcuts led to confusion during trig function drills.

A Year 6 learner struggled to focus during grammar work, often leaving punctuation exercises unfinished unless prompted.

Meanwhile, in a Year 3 session, handwriting became rushed and messy whenever worded maths problems appeared—making it difficult for both tutor and student to track working or spot errors.

Recent Achievements

A Glen Iris tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who used to avoid tricky trigonometry questions—last week, he completed several problems independently that he'd previously skipped, showing real progress in problem-solving.

In Year 8 English, another student began planning paragraphs on her own and now consistently uses correct punctuation and grammar after weeks of reminders.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner who struggled with "troublesome words" like their/they're/there can now spot and use them correctly in sentences without prompting.

Yesterday, the high schooler handed in all his maths homework with only self-checked corrections.

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 Ashburton Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Korowa Anglican Girls' School.
