Science Tutor Moggill, QLD
While I believe it is obviously important to help a student learn and understand their chosen subject, it is also important to support and encourage confidence in a student. I found during my schooling years that the subjects I most succeeded in were ones where my teachers were kind and encouraging - it allowed me to feel comfortable to ask…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do are to support their students, believe in their potential, and have patience. It's also important to understand that each student learns differently, to know when to challenge them, provide helpful practice materials, and encourage them. My strengths as a tutor are patience, clear communication,…

If you are a tutor, your job is to empower other people. Even if you are picking up blind spots, asking a student to paraphrase something, or advising more research in a particular area, there are ways to convey this information that are encouraging and helpful, (rather than condescending). We all have blind spots, too. I have found it…

The important thing that a tutor can provide for a student is a relaxed learning environment.

Local Reviews

We engaged EzyMath Tutoring to help our daughter fill in some gaps in her learning after changing schools in year 5. We found Sarah to be well organised and caring and able to identify Bree's weaknesses quickly. Sarah helped raise Bree's confidence levels and taught her learning strategies that have enabled her to catch up and no longer feel nervous in the classroom. I would have no hesitation referring EzyMath and will engage again during high school years if Bree begins to feel overwhelmed.

Inside Upper BrookfieldTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Riley focused on times tables for higher numbers and explored fractions, decimals, and percentages, using visual aids like dominoes to reinforce understanding.

Year 11 student Zoe worked through quadratic models and arithmetic series in her maths homework, then analysed mistakes from a recent exam to deepen her grasp of compound interest and solving quadratics.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Sanvi refined her chemistry assignment rationale and practiced questions on solubility and mole equations before shifting to advanced differentiation rules in Maths Methods.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student working on piecewise functions tended to overlook whether endpoints were open or closed, leading to confusion in graph interpretation—"she needs more revision on including and excluding points."

In Year 12 chemistry, the rationale section of a major assignment was left messy and unfinished, making it harder to structure arguments effectively.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student repeatedly mixed up positive and negative signs when using the quadratic formula; as noted, "he should start realising that he cannot skip steps."

In primary maths, one learner struggled with layout: inconsistent units (cm vs m) were only noticed after errors had been made.

Recent Achievements

In Year 10, Zoe initially struggled with geometric sequences but managed to answer one correctly on her non-calculator exam—a first for her after several attempts.

Sanvi, a senior student, showed new initiative by starting early on her chemistry assignment and made clear links between key concepts without needing as much prompting as before.

Meanwhile, Trinity in primary school needed reminders at first but now independently applies strategies for the 6x tables and can add fractions with different denominators without extra support.

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 Kenmore Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Upper Brookfield State School.
