Local Reviews

Dion is actually excited about Maths again and told me the other day I really like Maths now, after spending the majority of this year hating it and feeling down on himself because he just couldn’t understand some of the strands and considered himself to be really bad at it, even though his results in NAPLAN and school reports did not reflect this, it was just that he had lost all confidence. So we are so excited for him, that he’s gained that confidence back and he thoroughly looks forward to Nav coming every week. So just after 2 weeks, I want to say how beyond happy we all are with Nav and Ezy Math as an entire organisation. Your correspondence has been very thorough and extremely helpful with lots of great tips and explanations. You’ve managed to turn this Maths learning experience from a negative one to a positive in just a couple of weeks. We can’t wait to see what great success Dion can achieve with the help of Nav.

Inside Sylvania WatersTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Diyian focused on multiplication and long division as well as fractions and decimals, using practical examples from schoolwork.

For Year 9, Hayley worked through past exam questions in trigonometry and reviewed her errors from previous papers to strengthen understanding.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Shayan practiced probability concepts and statistics, completing sample test questions involving fractions and division for targeted skill-building.

Recent Challenges

In Year 4 mathematics, one student often avoided writing out full working, especially on subtraction and division tasks; "he just wrote the answer without steps," making it harder to catch calculation slips or review mistakes later.

A Year 9 learner showed low motivation after tough exam questions—leaving several unfinished, as noted: "She didn't do any work that week again."

In Year 11, a student relied mainly on familiar problems for revision and hesitated to attempt unseen HSC-style questions, which meant less progress with challenging content.

Missed homework and incomplete classwork have also made it difficult for students to track improvement over time.

Recent Achievements

A Sylvania Waters tutor noticed Hayley, a high school student, now writes her own topic notes to revisit tricky formulas—a shift from relying solely on explanations. She's also begun tackling questions she previously got wrong independently, which is new for her.

Another high schooler, Shayan, has started reading questions more carefully before answering and improved at selecting the best response rather than rushing—something he struggled with earlier in the term.

For Year 3, Violet recently began to grasp multiplication and division basics after finding them confusing last month; this time, she completed a set of problems 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 Sylvania Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Taren Point Public School.
