Jacinta is great and she & Katie are working really well together. So we are really happy with the progress so far.Wendy
Year 4 student Will practised telling time and worked on counting money and calculating appropriate change using real-life examples.
In Year 8, Will focused on multiplying and dividing negative numbers as well as applying BODMAS rules with negative integers, reviewing these skills through number line diagrams.
Jacob, a Year 11 Maths Methods student, tackled complex trigonometry problems involving the sine and cosine rule and applied these concepts to worded questions in preparation for his internal assessment.
A Year 9 student preparing for exams often left working out unclear, making it hard to track mistakes or justify solutions—especially in multi-step algebra and statistics tasks.
"He could improve on the formatting of his working out," a tutor noted after reviewing geometry problems.
In Year 12, another student relied heavily on the formula sheet but struggled to identify which formulas applied to unfamiliar exam questions, leading to slow starts and missed marks.
When homework revision was skipped due to assignments, understanding suffered; key strategies were forgotten during tests, leaving the student unsure where to begin challenging problems.
A Robina tutor noticed a big shift in Jacob, a senior student, who previously hesitated with normal inverse calculations on his calculator but now confidently rearranges the standard deviation formula to solve unknowns.
In Year 10, Will used to struggle with showing his working for integer problems, often skipping steps—now he lays out each stage clearly and checks his process.
Meanwhile, during a recent primary session, a younger student who was unsure about quarter past and quarter to times can now match them on both analog and digital clocks without prompting.
