English Tutor Blakeview, SA
I believe understanding the logic behind math can be very versatile and can be applied in everyday life, whenever it is maths or applying logic to your own life. I am currently studying Mathematical Methods, Specialist Mathematics and physics. I really enjoy maths but I also have experience in teaching and I enjoy helping my younger sibling…

I think that curiosity and the satisfaction of that curiosity is the most enjoyable part of learning. Whilst students have different goals for their learning the tutor has an opportunity to impact a life positively. The most important thing is to achieve the student's goal but over and above that an english tutor can engender a love of learning…

I think the most important thing that an english tutor can do for their student is remaining patient and continue to persevere with the content. In my experience, if I didn't understand a concept or was struggling with a question, it was extremely helpful when my tutor continued to talk me through the topic and didn't get frustrated at me for not…

I think that an english tutor must be patient and remain composed with each student. A tutor is meant to be that person whose teaching is tailored, so it requires an individualized approach, picked up and constantly adjusted as needs change and develop. I have (as told to me by all my ever-suffering associates) a 'wild' vocabulary, and for English…

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is be a kind and patient individual. Tutoring can be hard for students, so fostering a positive environment and having a good connection with the student will help them to feel safe and valued. My strengths as a tutor is that I am patient and able to explain things clearly and calmly…

The most important things an english tutor can do is to tailor their lessons to suit their individual students as every student learns differently and has different learning needs. It is also important that the tutor has knowledge on the curriculum that the student is being taught at school so they can align what they teach what the student is…

Expanding on what I have written earlier, I think that one of the most important things an english tutor can do for a student is be prepared, and always willing to learn. I think this requires being a bit humble, and accepting that, even with something that may appear to be far below the tutor's learning, there may still be things that aren't…

As I outlined earlier, a teacher's or an english tutor's sole responsibility is not to teach academia, it is to serve as a role model and to help their students grow as people. I think it's so important to treat students as adults, no matter their age, (Of course with a little sensibility applied) and even more importantly as an individual -- to…

I believe that a tutor should be someone whom the student should feel comfortable asking questions. In this sense, the student should definitely feel no hestitation when asking for clarification if they do not completely understand a concept, something which is not always easy to do in a class. I believe my weaknesses as a tutor would stem from my…

I believe that an effective tutor will help the student develop as a learner and problem solver, not only in the subject tutored, and give them lifelong study skills. This is important because the subject and level being tutored is only temporary, whereas people continue gaining and using knowledge for their whole lives. My objective as a tutor is…

I believe there are two things that are most important for a tutor. The first is not only knowing what area of help the student is in need of, but understanding why they need help with that, which is then enlightening as a tutor in how they should receive assistance. The second point is to be approachable and kind, so that students feel as though…

The most important thing is give a student confidence in their own abilities. Without confidence, a student will continue to doubt themselves and struggle whether you are guiding them in their learning or not. I am compassionate, good at explaining things in multiple ways, and creative. I believe that to be a tutor you have to be creative, as the…

EzyMath Tutoring has been my first experience in engaging a tutor for my son, who is in year 8. He loves maths, but can take a little longer to grasp concepts and I wanted to ensure that he kept up with modules so that he remained commited and engaged. Our tutor, Sakshi, has been such a pleasure to work with - calm, skilled and able to engage positively with my son. After just three sessions I'm seeing my son's confidence grow and his grades improve. Highly recommended! The support from the EzyMath Tutoring team has also been fantastic.

Inside One Tree HillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ben worked on finding parts of a whole using fractions and tackled division and factors through hands-on examples.

For Year 9, Mia focused on solving quadratic equations by factorising and identifying roots, as well as exploring surface area by unfolding 3D shapes into nets.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Lucas revised trigonometric ratios to find missing angles and sides in triangles, then applied the cosine rule to real-world word problems involving triangle geometry.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 mathematics, a student was hesitant to write out algebraic steps, relying on mental calculation instead—"she has excellent mental math skills and hence the writing part takes a back seat," as one tutor observed. This led to small sign errors during equation solving, which slowed progress in more complex topics.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student working on angle properties completed all calculations but struggled to recall key definitions when asked for reasoning, indicating that written revision notes had not been reviewed between sessions.

In Year 4 English, skipping words when reading aloud meant missing context clues and undermined comprehension during follow-up questions.

Recent Achievements

In Year 11, Chelsea used to hesitate when tackling trigonometry, but now she's confidently applying the sine rule on her own and has started practicing the cosine rule to keep up with class.

Caitlin, also in high school, is showing real independence—she attempts almost all problems by herself during sessions and quickly grasps new methods like elimination without needing prompts.

Meanwhile, Chase (Year 5) struggled to stick with word puzzles before, but now he eagerly plays multiple rounds per lesson and can find over ten words each time without help.

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 Playford Civic Centre Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like One Tree Hill Primary School.
