Year 6 student Mia worked on dividing with fractions and built mental arithmetic skills through targeted exercises.

Year 8 student James practiced formulating straight-line equations using gradients and intercepts, tackling several advanced exam-style questions.

For Year 12, Lucy completed the 2023 HSC Mathematics paper and reviewed her trial exam, focusing on frequently tested algebraic and trigonometric concepts to strengthen exam readiness.

A Year 9 student often hesitated to attempt worded questions, losing motivation when faced with long texts—"she gets demotivated when the question has a lot of words and fewer pictures."

In Year 11 algebra, skipping full working led to sign errors that slowed progress.

A Year 7 learner forgot steps in unit conversion, making her less confident during speed-related problems.

Meanwhile, a senior student struggled with time management under exam conditions, sometimes forgetting procedures mid-task.

These patterns meant more lesson time was spent rebuilding confidence or retracing earlier concepts rather than tackling new challenges head-on.

One Stockrington tutor noticed a big shift in Molly, a high school student who used to hesitate with advanced questions—last session she solved two challenging problems on her own, drawing on content from weeks prior without prompting.

Another win came from Janae, also in high school; she's gone from needing regular guidance to now completing most algebraic questions solo and finishing all her work on time.

In Year 6, Gemma has started applying the BODMAS method independently for order of operations—previously she'd get stuck or second-guess herself, but this time she worked through problems confidently and without pause.
