My daughter has gained more confidence in her maths since we have had Shiqi & has understood concepts in maths where she was struggling before. Shiqi explains things in a more simpler way and has patience,Elicia Hoang
Year 10 student Arya focused on matrix multiplication with step-by-step exercises and practiced general maths equations from Unit 4.
A Year 11 student, Summer, worked through CU questions in her maths book, tackling BODMAS problems—especially the importance of brackets—and explored spatial patterns.
Meanwhile, a Year 7 session with Grace covered understanding rates and gradients using practical examples and introduced straight line graphs for real-world applications.
In Year 9 maths, over-reliance on the tutor for confirmation—"she still sometimes relies on me to tell her if the outcome is right or wrong"—meant hesitancy in checking answers independently during algebra practice.
A Year 7 student's messy handwriting and inconsistent layout in ratio questions led to lost marks as working became hard to follow.
In Year 11, forgetting specific formulas for probability and bivariate data caused repeated stumbles despite prior revision attempts.
For a Year 4 learner, skipping steps when using column addition made it difficult to spot errors; this left them unsure where they went wrong after finishing problems.
One Swanbank tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to rely on step-by-step guidance now working through equations independently with just brief prompts, even tackling gradients independently by the end of their session.
In Year 9 English, another student has started "talking aloud" and using pen-and-paper strategies while answering questions—a real shift from silent guessing.
Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who previously skipped over tough words is now reading new chapters out loud and identifying punctuation errors as she goes, catching things she'd missed before. Last week, she finished her story with only two reminders to check for capitals.
