Amity is enjoying her tutouring. She is very pleased as she recently received an academic award at school meaning she had received A for all subjects for last term. So we are very happy with Xiaoya.Lisa, Broadbeach Waters
Year 7 student Milly worked through frequency tables, including how to calculate cumulative frequency and use Excel for graphing and averages.
In Year 9, Sam revised scientific notation and started trigonometry basics after completing work on Pythagoras' theorem, with problems tackled step-by-step.
Meanwhile, Year 10 student Tom focused on chemistry's redox reactions and practiced using Le Chatelier's principle to predict equilibrium shifts in chemical systems.
In Year 11 Chemistry, a student hesitated to attempt practice questions without reassurance, as noted: "Doesn't want to try the question before with me as doesn't want to do it wrong." This reluctance meant less independent problem-solving and slowed skill development.
Meanwhile, in Year 9 Mathematics, consistently writing down the wrong formula led to confusion when rearranging equations.
In Year 5 English, copying directly from articles rather than summarizing in her own words showed avoidance of authentic writing practice.
During a Year 8 assignment, incomplete homework limited feedback opportunities—key misunderstandings lingered unaddressed into the next session.
One Clear Island Waters tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 11 student who, after weeks of hesitating to show working, now writes out every step during tough chemistry equations—something he'd always skipped before.
Meanwhile, a Year 9 student who used to rush through maths problems is starting to slow down and check each calculation, catching mistakes that tripped him up last term.
For one younger learner, organizing thoughts into full sentences was tricky at first; now she structures her ideas independently and recently completed an essay draft without needing any prompts.
