A tutor is there to build confidence, in my opinion. Regardless of the comments of parents, teachers, siblings, a tutor should believe in their students and empower them to perform at the highest level capable. That is what the best tutors achieved for me, and what I continue to do for my own students today. I think the best tutors, particularly…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to believe and have faith in the student that they can learn and achieve anything they put their mind to. My strengths as a tutor include patience, understanding, and tolerance. I understand the way the student currently thinks and help them to bridge the gap to think in the way…

A student can receive individual attention from a tutor. There is no other student like in a classroom and hence the student can communicate easily with the tutor and clear their doubts in a more personalised manner. This is one of the most important thing a tutor can do for a student. I feel tutors can cater to the students personal needs and…

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…

Hence, explaining them the core concept, which enables them to solve the problems during their exams and assignments without having any second doubts.

I think one of the most important things a tutor can do is help a student build both their understanding and their confidence. Rather than simply giving them the answer, a tutor should guide them through the process so they can eventually solve problems independently. It is also important to be encouraging, patient and supportive, especially when…

The best thing any Tutor can do is make a student like a particular subject which she/he used to previously dislike. This means that the Tutor has made a boring subject interesting to the students. And in this way, the student will remember what he/she learns for a lifetime and not just for the purpose of examinations. I am a very patient Tutor,…

Local Reviews

EzyMath tutor sessions have been fabulous for our son. Our regular tutor (as well as an interim tutor) consistently provided a supportive and professional session for him to ask questions and refresh concepts. She certainly helped him stay on track and his grades have improved significantly. Organizing sessions has been easy and payment is smooth. We couldn't fault this service!
Sharon, Balwyn

Inside BalwynTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Emily worked on reading and spelling split digraphs like i_e and a_e, along with guided reading of Fox in Socks.

In Year 10, Daniel focused on solving simultaneous equations and reviewing linear graphs using school worksheets.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Sarah revised polynomial functions and logarithms, tackling real exam-style questions to consolidate her understanding of these advanced algebraic concepts.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student arrived without their calculator or workbook, making it difficult to participate fully in algebra activities—"needed to borrow a pen and missed out on working through examples."

In Year 10, one student left several homework questions incomplete, which meant less time for feedback on their use of formulas.

Another senior student skipped showing steps in trigonometry problems; as noted, "it was hard to spot where mistakes happened."

For a Year 3 learner, mixing up b and d while writing slowed reading fluency.

Each moment added an extra hurdle—sometimes just hunting for tools instead of solving the problem at hand.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Balwyn recently noticed a Year 10 student who used to skip over feedback now pausing to review comments and actively making changes, especially during math problem-solving.

In a senior session, one high schooler who previously relied on prompts is now coming prepared with their own questions and checking their work for accuracy without being asked.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who often guessed words from pictures has started focusing on the actual text—she read an entire Dr Seuss page aloud, segmenting each word herself instead of looking at illustrations for clues.

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