Year 4 student Claudia revised two- and three-digit addition using the split strategy and was introduced to subtraction involving tens, such as 165 minus 60.

Year 7 student Nina worked on multiplying and adding fractions, as well as finding the lowest common multiple for pairs of numbers, often using visual aids like fraction diagrams.

In Year 8, Leonardo tackled equations and basic factorisation in algebra, building confidence through step-by-step practice with real examples.

A Year 8 student often left homework incomplete, especially on times tables and addition, meaning lesson time was spent revisiting basics instead of progressing to more complex maths.

As one tutor noted, "The failure to complete the set homework just sets her progress back by delaying time."

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student displayed strong verbal creativity but struggled to organize ideas in writing—his workbook remained messy and hard to follow.

In both cases, gaps in practice outside sessions or lack of attention to written structure led to repeated confusion and slower confidence growth when faced with new material.

One Gwandalan tutoring session saw a Year 9 student, Aanika, tackle linear equations that she'd previously found confusing; after some practice applying formulas, she started working through the problems with noticeably more confidence and less hesitation.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student, Jasmine, who was unsure about calculating areas of composite shapes last term, now independently breaks down each shape and solves for the total area without prompting.

At primary level, Jordan in Year 4 used to rely on his fingers for simple sums but now consistently adds and subtracts mentally—he even completed all assigned Mathletics tasks on his own this week.
