The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be absolutely certain that his student really understand the topic which they explained and have no confusions or doubts in their mind. My most important strength as a tutor is understanding myself the specific point where a child is facing difficulty to grasp the topic and then clearing…

All my previous students have thanked me for teaching them the foundations, filling in any gaps before continuing on with new material. This gave them confidence in the subject and helped them achieve the highest grades in their academic career. It also provided them with an optimism to life, since if by doing well in school, they could see…

I believe the most important role of a tutor is to give the student a chance to learn according to their own skills. Whilst school classes are integral, often students may get lost or left behind as the curriculum advances. Without the individual attention of a tutor they may have lingering gaps in their education and understanding that go…

The most important thing for a tutor to do is to make sure the student can feel confident, making the subject enjoyable to learn, rather than stressful and disheartening. I try to understand what part they are struggling with, so I can help them understand, rather than learn rote answers. So this means I'm patient, and a good…

Explain concepts to students that they do not understand. Fill in the gaps that they have not been able to grasp at school in the classroom. By explaining topics and concepts to the students they obtain confidence and that in turn enhances their ability to progress in the subject they are experiencing difficulty in. Tutoring is the bridge to…

It is crucial for a tutor to create a safe space or a safe bond with students so they feel comfortable asking questions.

The most important things a tutor can do is to listen to their student. Whether they need to adjust their techniques, or go more slowly, etc. The tutor should always be attendant to their student's needs and keep track of their progress. Positive reinforcement is also very important, as uplifting and encouraging your student is more beneficial…

Local Reviews

EzyMath listened to what we needed in a tutor for our daughter. They found someone within our school area. Our daughter's tutor, Cassie has been an absolute blessing. She is both competent and very approachable. She has helped our daughter gain confidence and competency in a subject which is not her forte.

Inside GlenbrookTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Alex focused on perimeter and area, then explored volume by working through practical measurement questions.

Year 8 student Zoe worked on dividing a quantity according to given ratios and calculating rates, applying these skills to real-life scenarios.

For Year 10, Jamie revised Financial Maths topics such as calculating tax and Medicare levy, along with practice problems on taxable income and refunds using sample exam worksheets.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student struggled to retain key algebraic methods and sign conventions, with a tutor noting, "forgetting whether a constant was positive or negative led to repeated calculation errors." This difficulty was linked to revising only familiar material, rather than consolidating past topics as recommended.

Meanwhile, a senior student preparing for financial maths avoided reattempting harder tax and income questions after setbacks—missing opportunities to address persistent misunderstandings.

In Year 1, messy letter formation made writing tasks slower and more confusing; "he mixed up 'j' and 'i'," which impacted spelling practice. This slowed progress in both reading and written work.

Recent Achievements

One Glenbrook tutor noticed that a Year 9 student, who had previously hesitated to ask for clarification, now actively pauses mid-problem to check her approach before moving on—especially with tricky algebra questions.

During recent sessions, a Year 11 student began independently revisiting errors from her last Financial Maths exam, explaining where she went wrong and how she'd tackle similar problems differently next time.

In primary school, Charbel has become much more focused during reading activities and now confidently sounds out unfamiliar words aloud rather than skipping them—something he was reluctant to attempt just a few weeks ago.

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 Blaxland Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Glenbrook Public School.
