A tutor has to be patient and welcoming for their students. The reason these students come for tutoring is because they face difficulty keeping up with school. So they should be given the space to understand at their own pace, in their own method and a teacher needs to recognize that. We need to recognize the method which we choose to teach a…

Most importantly, a tutor can lead a student to realise what they are capable of. This kind of core belief change leads a student to have the self-confidence to reach their full potential, including their best learning. I am patient, understanding and compassionate. Even if a young person's lack of self-confidence results in negative behaviour, I…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for students is to guide and assist them to complete assignments and homework rather than completing it for them. This will not only allow them to ask questions and gain a basic understanding of how to do a task, but it will also allow them to successfully complete a similar task without needing…

It is important for a tutor to steer the student into the right direction by giving simplistic explanations to questions or concepts, as poor explanations can confuse and destroy students' thought processes. What is also really important for a tutor is to be non-judgmental and have a personality that can induce questions from students who may be…

I believe that in order for anyone to understand the material being taught - the tutor must begin with the fundamentals and basics; breaking down the information and then ensuring the student is able to explain it back is what I believe works best. This requires patience, which I believe is an essential quality a tutor must maintain in order for…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is teaching them how to student independently. While it may seem counterproductive, I believe a tutor's job is to uplift the student and strengthen their fundamentals so that they won't require infinite tutoring and thus be able to improve on their own. To do this, the tutor must…

Local Reviews

I want to thank Ezy Maths Tutoring, as Joshua seems to have connected well with David and is working with his strengths. Already we are seeing a difference in the confidence of David to tackle his Maths and is being guided to see the areas that he is lacking instead of total self doubt of thinking that he knows nothing .
Craig, Modbury North

Inside ModburyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Alex worked through atomic structure and elements, using periodic table references to understand subatomic particles, then practised writing and balancing chemical equations.

Year 10 student Priya focused on VSEPR theory to predict molecular shapes and applied her knowledge of molar mass in chemical calculations with step-by-step problem solving.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Ella revised key concepts in cell biology, labelling cell parts and discussing the stages of cell division with visual aids for clarity.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student hesitated to trust her own answers in algebra, often second-guessing even correct responses—"she got it right but questioned herself," a tutor noted. This slowed progress and meant less time for extension work.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student struggled with making connections between related science questions, tending to focus on single concepts rather than integrating them; this limited deeper understanding during revision.

In Year 5 maths, another student's written working was sometimes hard to follow due to missing steps when calculating on paper, which led to repeated errors that were difficult to track back and fix during review.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Modbury noticed a big shift with one Year 10 student who previously hesitated to ask for help; now, she actively seeks clarification on tricky biology topics and even poses her own thought-provoking questions about hormone function.

In Year 8 maths, another student who often second-guessed herself has started confidently working through surface area problems—she now says "this makes sense!" after applying formulas independently.

Meanwhile, a younger student in Year 3 who used to struggle with fractions is not only matching them to shaded figures but also explaining why the numerator and denominator represent each part.

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 City of Tea Tree Gully Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Garden College - Modbury Campus.
