Rather than teaching a student, the tutor inspires the student. It is vital for a tutor to provide the skills and techniques required to solve complex problems rather than teaching them how to solve these problems. Getting a student excited about learning is also pivotal as this provides a more engaging environment and increases their…

Help them gain understanding of a thought they are not clear with, and motivate them to continue thinking things through in a unique way. I think I'm very patient while teaching, which would be beneficial for young students and older students. I am able to articulate well when I explain something which is needed by a…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be able to understand their student's most efficient method/mode of learning and be able to adapt to it, even if it does change over time as the student grows. Simplifying concepts in subjects like mathematics and English to understandable ideas which can be tailored to the student's…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is teach them how to think and learn. This is far more valuable for future work and study than any one topic to be learnt. My principle strength as a tutor would be my understanding of how mathematical concepts work, which helps me to explain them. I do this often with my colleagues during…

I think most importantly a tutor should teach the student how to learn. Other than having a passion and knowledge of the material; I think it's also important to be a good listener and be able to pick up whether the student really understands, tailoring your approach to the student. My main weaknesses are my limited experience in tutoring and…

I believe patience, resilience, and the ability to think fast to generate alternate ways to regain the student's focus, particularly if they are on the younger side. Aside from paying attention to the student's attention span, more importantly, a tutor should be prepared on going about different routes to ensure understanding of course content and…

One of the most important effects a tutor can have on a student is bringing out their confidence and have their student feel supported. Throughout my experience as a tutor, many students have said "I'm stupid" and this falsehood is holding them back. They lack confidence in exams and don't exercise sufficient effort for assignments, because they…

While one of the important roles a tutor plays is to help students in their understanding, I believe the most important role is to incentivise and motivate hard work, especially by setting a good example. Tutors can only be with their students for a few hours a week, so the onus is on the student themselves to get the hard work done. The…

Ultimately, I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is instill self-confidence within the student, positively change a student's view and approach toward learning, and assist in improving student academic performance. In my opinion, a tutor is more likely to achieve these positive student outcomes if they are consistently: - Honest,…

As previously mentioned, I think the most important thing a tutor can do for their student is to listen. If you do not listen to the students expectations and responsiveness to the material then the sessions will not be productive, and the student will not improve.

Local Reviews

The EzyMath team has been very easy to work with - our tutor is very punctual, proactive, polite, flexible, and my child has been enjoying her lessons! She has been picking up new concepts and her confidence has increased! The online team has also been great, in particular their communication is excellent (they are prompt to reply to emails and check in regularly). I am really happy overall with the service they are providing.

Inside St LuciaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 Cara spent several sessions strengthening her foundation in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, gradually moving on to fractions and exploring angles using diagrams.

Year 8 Arnav focused on data analysis for a maths assignment, specifically comparing two groups using mean, median, and mode while interpreting results from charts.

Meanwhile, Year 9 Masiha tackled trigonometry concepts including right-angled triangles (sin, cos, tan) and progressed to three-digit bearings in later lessons.

Recent Challenges

In Year 4 mathematics, Cara repeatedly relied on a "cheat sheet" for times tables and hesitated when faced with multiplication or division involving larger numbers. As one tutor noted, "she tended to guess answers instead of working through each step," especially when the material wasn't her favourite.

In senior biology (Year 12), Arnav struggled to integrate others' research into his own writing and found it difficult to synthesize several sources into a single argument. This led to drafts that were overly detailed but lacked cohesion—drafting became overwhelming rather than productive when he felt pressured to get it perfect in one go.

Recent Achievements

A recent St Lucia tutoring session saw one Year 10 student move from hesitating with multi-step maths problems to confidently working through each stage and even catching their own small errors without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student who used to get frustrated with data analysis now independently identifies patterns in statistics and explains what the results mean, showing more initiative than before.

In Year 5, Cara—who was previously quiet during lessons—has started raising her hand for help when stuck and finished an entire set of division questions on her own for the first time.

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 West End Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Ironside State School.
