A tutor is someone who just not explains what is right or wrong or not or just gives the answer directly, but instead makes sure that the student, one is teaching has understood the concept extremely well and can relate to his or her own work and can work perfectly without the tutor's help. Also, the tutor should be aware how the student works…

The most important things a tutor can do are to foster understanding, build confidence, and encourage independent thinking. A good tutor doesn’t just give answers but teaches students how to approach problems like giving them a map rather than carrying them to the destination. Supporting motivation, reinforcing strengths, and helping students…

I believe that getting high grades in school is not the most important goal for my student (although this is something we work towards), but rather what is most important for me as a tutor is to see them learn, progress and improve each time. I want to teach them the value of hard work while building up their confidence and motivation to tackle…

The most important thing that a tutor for students is to allow them to work out answers for themselves. Of course, tutors should provide guidance, but they should not merely provide answers. Additionally, I feel that students must be allowed room to make mistakes. A tutor should not be one to apply too much pressure on a student, as too much force…

I think that a tutor must be patient and remain composed with each student. A tutor is meant to be that person whose teaching is tailored, so it requires an individualized approach, picked up and constantly adjusted as needs change and develop. I have (as told to me by all my ever-suffering associates) a 'wild' vocabulary, and for English…

A tutor needs to help identify a student's strong points and motivate the students in every possible way. It's not always the tutor that should be valued and respected but the students also needs the same respect and care.

Give moral support and guidance. As a tutor, I don't give answers or solve the student's work, I want them to be able to solve it themselves and use their critical thinking skills with their knowledge of subject content.

A tutor has to be patient and welcoming for their students. The reason these students come for tutoring is because they face difficulty keeping up with school. So they should be given the space to understand at their own pace, in their own method and a teacher needs to recognize that. We need to recognize the method which we choose to teach a…

I believe that in order for anyone to understand the material being taught - the tutor must begin with the fundamentals and basics; breaking down the information and then ensuring the student is able to explain it back is what I believe works best. This requires patience, which I believe is an essential quality a tutor must maintain in order for…

I believe that an effective tutor will help the student develop as a learner and problem solver, not only in the subject tutored, and give them lifelong study skills. This is important because the subject and level being tutored is only temporary, whereas people continue gaining and using knowledge for their whole lives. My objective as a tutor is…

I believe there are two things that are most important for a tutor. The first is not only knowing what area of help the student is in need of, but understanding why they need help with that, which is then enlightening as a tutor in how they should receive assistance. The second point is to be approachable and kind, so that students feel as though…

Local Reviews

My son is in his third term of Year 6. Up until the start of Term 3 he had a male teacher who he was extremely comfortable with. He now has a female teacher who is new to the school. After a half yearly report & parent-teacher interview with the new teacher it was bought to my attention that my son was struggling with his maths. My son had mentioned a few times there were certain things he didn't understand but I did not realize to what extent as I had no feedback from the previous male teacher & was unaware of any problems. I was told he needed to work on his times tables before anything. I made a decision to find a tutor & get my son some help as I did not want him struggling so close to starting high school. I searched on the Internet and EzyMaths looked professional & I was impressed that I could read the testimonials from other parents. The service I received from my first phone call was very professional & helpful. My son has had 3 sessions so far. One of them being a 2 hour session as we received one hour free which is fantastic. My son is extremely happy with his tutor & feels very comfortable with her. He is so much more confident about school & maths. For the first time ever he actually wants to do maths. He mentioned he is happy because his tutor does not rush him. Financially hiring a tutor is not something I can easily afford but I beleive with EzyMaths it is definitely money well spent. Just to see my son gaining confidence & learning is definitely money well spent. I would highly recommend EazyMath to anyone that is looking for a tutor.

Inside Yatala ValeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Dominic worked on understanding integers and evaluating numeric expressions, then focused on operations with fractions including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division using real-world examples.

Year 10 student Abigail tackled techniques for factoring quadratic expressions in various formats and clarified early statistics concepts such as terminology and measures of central tendency.

For Year 11, Laura explored trigonometric functions—solving basic equations and applying inverse functions—and began work on introductory calculus ideas like limits and rates of change.

Recent Challenges

Lesson notes for both primary and senior students reflected strong motivation and engagement, but a few process areas stood out.

In Year 12, one student was described as "working on it—clarifying concepts," yet sometimes hesitated to ask follow-up questions during complex calculus discussions, which left minor misunderstandings unresolved until later sessions.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student occasionally needed reminders to clarify steps when working with fractions; as one tutor noted, "he asked for more exercises but sometimes skipped writing full working." This meant some errors weren't visible right away, making self-correction slower in the moment.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Yatala Vale noticed that Dominic, a high school student, has shifted from passively listening to actively requesting practice problems—he now regularly asks for new questions to test his understanding and even requests exercises for the next session.

Abigail, also in high school, used to need hints when working with probability rules but now quickly recognises patterns on her own and applies conditional probability techniques independently.

Meanwhile, during a primary session, Lachlan moved from needing frequent guidance to asking clarifying questions about measurement units and degrees versus radians, showing real initiative by initiating these discussions himself.

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 City of Tea Tree Gully Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Fairview Park Primary School.
