Year 4 student Chloe focused on reading comprehension and practiced counting activities using her workbook.
In Year 9, Alexia reviewed multiplying and dividing algebraic equations as well as simplifying these expressions in preparation for an upcoming test.
Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ethan worked through financial maths by calculating tax, Medicare levy, and determining taxable income and tax refunds using real-world examples.
In Year 10 Maths, a student struggled to keep track of sign conventions when solving algebraic expressions; as one tutor noted, "careful with which method to use for addition/subtraction and multiplication." This often led to confusion in multi-step problems.
In Year 11 Financial Maths, incomplete formula recall and lack of organized notes made it hard for another student to calculate taxable income or the Medicare levy—especially under test conditions.
Meanwhile, a primary learner's tendency to avoid writing out working due to fear of making mistakes meant errors with letter formation and sight words lingered longer than necessary, slowing their reading progress.
A Springwood tutor recently noticed some genuine progress across different year levels. During a high school maths session, Isabelle, who previously hesitated with financial maths problems, showed real persistence and was able to work through perimeter and area questions for various shapes like trapeziums and cylinders with increasing accuracy.
Tariq, another high school student, moved from needing step-by-step help with percentages to accurately converting fractions into percentages by multiplying them by 100 on his own.
Meanwhile, in primary, Lillian not only spelled all her weekly words correctly but also explained her science project enthusiastically—something she used to shy away from sharing aloud.
