Year 8 student Ella reviewed simplifying linear and polynomial equations, along with exponent rules, using practice questions for reinforcement.
For Year 10, Luka revised expanding and factorising polynomials of varying degrees and also looked at homework in preparation for an upcoming test.
Meanwhile, Year 5 student Jason focused on perimeter and area of irregular shapes (squares and rectangles), as well as practising the 6, 7, 8, and 9 times tables to build confidence with multiplication facts.
In Year 11 Maths, one student's confidence issues meant they hesitated to share working for negative number problems—"He can do it, but second-guesses his steps," a tutor noted, leading to missed opportunities for feedback.
In Year 6, another learner found long division challenging when forgetting to show all calculation steps; skipping the subtraction or multiplication stages confused her teacher about where she was stuck.
Meanwhile, in senior Maths Methods, revision focused only on re-reading notes rather than actively practicing unit circle applications before an upcoming test, limiting real exam readiness and making error spotting much harder during review.
A Bandiana tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 10 student's attitude toward algebra: after previously guessing at answers, he started actively asking questions about his mistakes and seeking clarification until he understood new techniques.
Another high schooler, Sienna, moved from struggling with complex matrix word problems to independently using matrix recursion relations and interpreting transition matrices—something she couldn't do before.
In the primary years, Maya has become comfortable enough to admit when a maths concept doesn't make sense and now tackles new times tables with real enthusiasm; last week, she finished her worksheet without prompting.
