Although it is highly important that an english tutor teaches their students the material covered in the syllabus, it is equally as important that the tutor teaches their students the tools required to succeed in a competitive academic environment. As a tutor, I instil in my students a great work ethic, teaching them highly effective study and…

First and foremost, an english tutor has to gel up with the student, make him/her comfortable. Once that is done, the teaching method adopted must be interesting, with must include examples from daily life so that the student can relate to it easily. Moreover, a diagrammatic approach must be used while teaching, since, children tend to remember…

Fundamentally, an english tutor must be able to pass on their knowledge to students such that they can progress academically. This should be accompanied by helping and testing the students where necessary. I prefer to break down complex concepts into smaller ideas, which can then be used as a foundation for understanding and applying the actual…

I think the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to explain it so they understand what you're saying, and then give them time to figure it out on their own with out being given the answer, and without time constraints. I also think that making them feel comfortable to ask for help is very important, because if they don't…

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is help them understand a topic in a way that they understand. What I mean by this, is that not one student is the same as another. Some are visual learners and need practical explanations or materials to assist them to understand, others students may be auditory learners who require…

Local Reviews

Initially we investigated a range of tutoring options. We looked at tutors through friends recommendations, Uni students looking for additional income and tutoring "matchmakers". We decided to go with EzyMath because they made the process really easy, and reasonably priced. Daniel has checked up with me throughout the process and the tutor is making great connection with my child. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a tutor.

Inside PostansTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Mia worked on finding the area of rectangles and triangles, practising these calculations with visual aids.

Year 9 student Ava focused on congruent triangle proofs and explored scale factors in geometric diagrams.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student James tackled graphs of circles and parabolas as well as applied Pythagoras' Theorem to solve coordinate geometry problems.

Recent Challenges

For a Year 10 student, disorganized lesson materials—spread across folders and websites—left her unsure what to revise first in maths. As a tutor noted, "she doesn't have a clear overview of what she needs to learn," making focused practice difficult.

In Year 7, one student avoided writing out calculations for geometry on paper, instead relying on laptop notes; this made it hard to check reasoning or draw diagrams accurately.

Another senior student missed homework repeatedly in English, which meant class discussions felt overwhelming and unproductive when key readings were skipped.

Recent Achievements

One Postans tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who, after struggling to lay out maths workings clearly, now sets out each calculation step and makes far fewer errors as a result.

In English, a Year 8 student has started using her wordlists in sentences and reads aloud more smoothly—her reading voice is much clearer compared to last term's hesitancy.

Meanwhile, a younger student recently took initiative by doing all their assigned homework for the first time without reminders and even asked for extra tasks, showing new independence that hadn't been seen before.

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