It was nice to recap algebra and quadratic equations as these topics are generally challenging and arduous to do. Pip has a better understanding of factorisation and expansion compared to when the topic was first taught. Overall, she has good confidence across all topics but should revise theory (from past cheat sheets and textbook) and practice sample questions.
Both turning point and intercept form of quadratic equations require practice. I suggest getting familiar with sketching those equations. Regarding fractional simplification, distinguish between indices and regular algebraic expressions. Importantly, ensure to copy down all remaining terms from each step and add units to the final solution. Wish you the very best as the year comes to a close!

Great job on prioritising theory notes before attempting the rest of the practice exam. Understood and included key concepts and sample questions for the final exam. Nice to see Daniel taking ownership of his own learning.
Good luck with exam preparation. Ensure Daniel revises all concepts again - it would be a shame to confront a question and not know how to solve it. Work hard then play hard is the way to go! Thanks for a productive year and please stay safe these holidays.

Considering these topics were the most challenging for Daniel this year, the questions were attempted with curiosity and care. Revised many complex concepts with some improvements in understanding. Better formatting of steps was also observed.
Definitely have to revise algebra, especially 'solve for x' problems involving brackets. I think Daniel struggles to understand linear relationships; it's just a concept that doesn't make sense to him. But that's not an issue because everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. That said, there is plenty of room for improvement on interpreting linear equations, y=mx+c.

Good lesson overall. Not only was Pip's thought process correct, but it was clearly and concisely expressed. New concepts and advice were easily grasped and extended upon.
Important reminder to ask maths teacher how to convert radians to degrees on the scientific calculator. And make sure to include all necessary units e.g. degrees, distances. Other than that, practise angle of depression questions and converting any triangle to Pythagoras (right-angled) triangles, then solving trigonometric problems related to that triangle.
