The most important thing for a tutor to do for a student is providing as much information as they can. Answer their questions, solve their problems, and make sure that they really understand the material. I am a very good listener. When a student is facing difficulty, I believe the problem is communication. Talk to them and try to find out what is…

One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student to help them learn is to make the subject/topic approachable. From personal experience learning in the past, even the subtlest differences in teaching methods greatly affect a student's interest and capacity to learn. As such I believe a tutor should try their best to make the subject…

To me, the most essential role a tutor can fulfill is that of an enabler and empowerer. I believe a tutor's primary goal should be to provide students with a strong foundation of knowledge and a resilient problem-solving framework, not only to tackle academic challenges but also to navigate any obstacle life may present. An empowering tutor equips…

Whilst a tutor is only present with their student for a limited time, they can help by providing a clear understanding of what the syllabus wants and giving resources. They are also there to answer and clarify a student’s questions and assist in developing a structured work routine. Since I have recently completed the HSC and have studied the…

Build a personal relationship with them and understand what the student does and doesn't like. Having being tutored myself, I didn't respond as well with someone who could not meet me at my level than I did with a tutor who I felt I could relate to and trust. I am calm and caring, which I think is really important in tutoring, especially when…

Having empathy, because not all content comes too easy for students as it does for us, obviously. Having patience, because it can be frustrating if a tutor just expects a student to "get it" immediately. Being kind. This seems obvious but you may be surprised the number of teachers I've had and met who are not kind, and they are extremely hard…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is support and mentor a student, not just teach the content. That means creating a safe, encouraging space where they feel comfortable asking questions, building their confidence, and being guided. A good tutor also helps students develop better study habits and self-belief, setting them up for…

Not give the answers but help support the learning process and give guidance when the child needs it most. There is a difference between doing all the work for the child and actually teaching how the problem can be approached and observing how the student does it him/herself. If the child is stuck on a concept, it is my responsibility to help the…

A tutor is someone that a student can rely on for support. They are pragmatic in finding ways to ensure the student has a positive experience with learning. The student is in control, and the tutor is a guide that assists and also facilitates the student to take safe risks, ask questions and completely engage with their learning in ways suitable…

I think the most important thing that a tutor can do is be supportive. Students are already frustrated when they do not understand something, hence we do not need to add to that by being frustrated at them. In addition, a tutor needs to be flexible. This allows one to better tailor the program to the student's needs and the student's strengths. I…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is aid them in being confident enough to always attempt a problem. A great tutor helps a student to put aside the "oh no, I don't know what to do" thought or feeling and and least try to break the problem into something they do know how to do. My strengths as a tutor come in my genuine passion…

I believe that the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to act as both an academic and emotional mentor to alleviate some of the stress that comes with studying.

I believe the single most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to provide patient and constant support for them outside of their classroom, and try to clear all their doubts effectively. Moreover, a tutor should guide their students in a manner in which they can focus on key areas of improvement and then work on realistic goals, which…

Local Reviews

When searching for a maths tutor that my daughter would connect with, I researched & considered several options. In the end, we decided to give EzyMath a go - & it's been a wonderful experience. My daughter really liked & connected with the tutor they recommended. She feels comfortable with her & even enjoys the sessions. They've only had a meet each other session plus 2 proper sessions & already my daughter is more at ease & positive towards maths.....she even feels she's improved in this short period. I also found the management easy to collaborate with as I wanted her to meet two tutors in order to select the one she felt most comfortable with. They were responsive & helpful.

Inside Point PiperTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Isaac revised key algebra foundations and began tackling Year 7 content, focusing on simple equations and the meaning behind multiplication and division sentences.

In Year 8, Bella worked through linear relationships using real-life examples and practised interpreting graphs to consolidate her understanding.

For Year 10, Ethan explored financial mathematics concepts like profit growth percentages through worded questions and applied these in rich tasks for practical application.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student faced timing and time management issues in exams—"timing needs some improvement"—resulting in unfinished questions, particularly with non-linear equations.

For a Year 9 learner, difficulty showing step-by-step algebra working meant errors went unnoticed; as one tutor observed, "not able to demonstrate how he found the answers and why he used a certain step."

In Year 6, forgetting formulas for volume left one student unable to attempt several measurement problems without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 child's subtraction strategies were unclear on paper, making it hard to spot mistakes or explain reasoning during review.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Point Piper recently noticed a Year 12 student who, after previously relying on mental maths and skipping steps, now carefully writes out each stage when solving one-step equations, showing much more attention to detail.

Another high schooler demonstrated real initiative by tackling past papers independently before their exam—something they hadn't attempted unprompted before—and came to the session with thoughtful questions about tricky assessment terminology.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student who had struggled with vertical subtraction finally managed to solve three-digit subtraction problems using the trading technique without needing 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 Double Bay Central Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Cranbrook School.
