Year 8 student Sophie worked on calculating surface area and volume of composite solids, including breaking down complex shapes like cylinders and triangular prisms, as well as practicing rearranging equations with multiple variables.

Year 9 student Hazell focused on expanding and factorising algebraic expressions such as monic quadratic trinomials using methods like the distributive law and FOIL, then applied trigonometric ratios to solve for unknown sides in right-angled triangles, including worded problems involving bearings.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Larena practiced converting between mixed and improper fractions, simplifying fractions by identifying the highest common factor, and started learning strategies for adding and subtracting fractions with different denominators.

A Year 10 student showed a pattern of skipping backchecking in financial mathematics, leading to avoidable errors—"she hadn't read the question properly for the quiz," one tutor noted.

In senior grades, another student repeatedly forgot or avoided homework, limiting retention and making it harder to recall trigonometry and algebra techniques when tested under pressure.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 learner hesitated to attempt questions without reassurance, sometimes erasing working out if unsure. This reluctance slowed problem-solving and left misconceptions unaddressed until prompted by direct feedback in session.

Missed practice and inconsistent revision led to fragile confidence during assessments.

One Cambridge Park tutor noticed a big change in Hazell, a high school student who now catches her own "silly mistakes" during algebra practice—something she struggled with before.

In recent sessions, Hazell also managed to complete an assignment section independently after previously needing more guidance, showing real initiative.

Meanwhile, Sophie has started applying new problem-solving strategies by talking through her reasoning out loud and using pen-and-paper checks without prompting; she's also begun identifying and correcting misconceptions herself while working on surface area problems.

For a younger student, Larena moved from doubting her ability with fractions to solving several on her own by the end of the lesson.
