Standard We are finding Eloise great. She is very good with Penny and has really listened to where Penny needs help with most and has prepared for her lessons well. We plan on keeping up tutoring as I think it’s making a big difference with Penny’s confidence at school. She has gone from below the expected level in term 1 report to at the the expected level for her end of year report.Rachel
Year 5 student Layla worked on converting between analogue and digital time as well as practising subtraction with decimals.
In Year 8, Sophia tackled index laws using practice questions and also revised simplifying fractions and identifying recurring or terminating decimals.
For Year 10, Will focused on solving simultaneous equations through substitution and elimination methods, alongside reviewing how to calculate surface area for composite shapes.
Lost previous homework sheet so had to spend lesson going through it again, which led to less time for new learning.
Needs improvement when it comes to explaining why the answer is what it is.
A Year 4 learner did not complete assigned homework several times in a row and made repeated sign errors in algebra; this resulted in spending part of each session fixing old mistakes instead of progressing with new content.
One Palm Cove tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who, after weeks of needing prompts, tackled complex textbook questions independently and even applied feedback to improve her assignment without extra guidance.
In another high school session, a student came prepared for test revision—something she'd avoided before—and took the initiative to ask targeted questions about topics she found challenging.
Meanwhile, in primary maths, one younger learner who used to lose focus was able to complete every subtraction question in the lesson with only occasional help and stayed engaged throughout.
