Mandar Panchal is a great teacher and the best match for Kareem. Mandar is a very talented math teacher who worked hard with Kareem and was able to fill the gap exactly the way we needed, he always on time and made Kareem feel confident and challenge him in a great healthy way. He taught Kareem great techniques that will help him to get where he wants at this stage. I wish him all the luck in his future career.Eynas
Year 6 student Tiffany worked on a diagnostic assessment to identify focus areas in Year 9 maths, including algebra and geometry skills.
For Year 10, Lucy completed revision of trigonometric concepts before tackling advanced algebraic techniques using targeted practice questions.
In Year 11, Marcus began the organic chemistry module by exploring ways to represent carbon compounds and practiced naming simple hydrocarbons following IUPAC rules.
In Year 10 Maths, a student often avoided writing out full solutions for non-linear equations—"he'd jump straight to the answer, skipping steps when sketching cubics," one tutor noted. This made it hard to spot and fix recurring sign errors.
A Year 11 student tackling normal distribution "trick" questions struggled with remembering which formulas weren't provided on the sheet, leading to lost marks in practice tests.
In Year 7, another student hesitated to attempt multi-step worded problems unless reassured she was on track; this slowed her progress when extracting key information from bearings or trigonometry scenarios.
A tutor in Killingworth recently noticed a Year 12 student who had struggled with simultaneous equations is now confidently switching between methods without prompting.
In Year 11, another student who previously hesitated to ask for help has started speaking up when unsure about indices problems, making it easier to clarify misunderstandings on the spot.
Meanwhile, a primary schooler who used to get stuck building cubes from nets is now independently visualising 3D shapes and even explains her thinking out loud as she works through each step.
