The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to believe in them. Students already have bounds of pressure heaped on them, academic, parental, administrative, personal, etc. and sometimes all it takes is one Calculus question to bring them to their wit's end. A tutor must support their students throughout their learning journey and…

Besides helping them understand and learn a topic, the tutor should also help the student master the topic through mastery learning. Mastery learning is a way of designing units of work so that each set of tasks focuses on a particular learning objective and students must master a task to move onto the next one. The tutor should also help the…

I think that a tutor should not limit themselves to just subject knowledge. They should research more on effective teaching methods and strategies that might help them connect to their students more. They should develop practices that make a student's life easier and should understand the individual needs of the students. Often tutors have to…

Local Reviews

Inside AdelaideTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Olivia worked through volumetric analysis revision and tackled an assignment focused on applying chemical calculations.

For Year 11, Daniel reviewed the Sine Rule and Cosine Rule in trigonometry, including practice with area problems for non-right-angled triangles using diagrams to support understanding.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Ava focused on surface area calculations for triangles, cylinders, and rectangles, along with exercises reinforcing perimeter concepts.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student tackling trigonometry struggled to apply memorised formulas when graph types changed—"she forgets how to do the questions with similar methods seeing a different graph."

In Year 11, one student's algebra work was neat but skipped writing down steps, hiding sign errors and making feedback hard to act on.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 learner regularly left times tables revision incomplete and often forgot school materials at home, which slowed maths practice.

For a Year 4 long division task, fatigue set in quickly and mistakes were repeated instead of addressed.

Recent Achievements

Solves problems independently: A Year 11 student who used to hesitate with complex algebra now approaches challenging questions on their own and even brings tricky problems to sessions, showing real initiative.

Another high schooler, previously quiet in class discussions, has started explaining what was learned at school back to the tutor—demonstrating both improved memory retention and a new willingness to engage.

A younger student who often rushed through English work is now forming paragraphs more thoughtfully instead of guessing, and recently finished writing an assignment draft without needing constant reminders.

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 Adelaide City Libraries - City Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Specialised Assistance School For Youth (SASY). Alternatively lessons can be had at Ezy Math Tutoring Brisbane, 71 King William St, Adelaide SA 5000, (08) 7123 4138
