Modern History Tutor Golden Grove, SA
I think the most important thing that a tutor can do for their student is remaining patient and continue to persevere with the content. In my experience, if I didn't understand a concept or was struggling with a question, it was extremely helpful when my tutor continued to talk me through the topic and didn't get frustrated at me for not…

Modern History Tutor Golden Grove, SA
The most important things a tutor can do is to tailor their lessons to suit their individual students as every student learns differently and has different learning needs. It is also important that the tutor has knowledge on the curriculum that the student is being taught at school so they can align what they teach what the student is learning at…

Modern History Tutor Highbury, SA
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…

Modern History Tutor Salisbury Plain, SA
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…

Modern History Tutor Hillbank, SA
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…

Modern History Tutor Dernancourt, SA
I consider the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to ultimately inspire them in a love of learning and hopefully pass onto them capsules of knowledge which are priceless. My strengths as a tutor are to challenge the pupils to think abstractly about language and harness the true power it possesses. I love hearing the pupil's own…

Make them realise that they have the ability to acheive, and helping them unlock that in themselves. My strengths would be in relating to the students, as I am recently out of high school, and understanding how the new SACE system works. My weakness would possibly be with younger children, as it has been a while since I was in the younger years,…

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.
