Proven My daughter has only had a few sessions with her wonderful tutor and shown improvements already. Her tutor Shan, is kind, patient and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this service.Karen Montgomery, Woodville South
Year 8 student Mia practised expanding and factorising algebraic expressions, then applied these skills to simplify quadratic expressions.
Year 10 student Daniel focused on trigonometric ratios—using sine, cosine, and tangent for right-angled triangles—and worked through applications involving angles of elevation and bearings.
Meanwhile, Year 5 student Sarah consolidated her understanding of time calculations alongside division and multiplication strategies using real-world word problems.
A Year 8 student arrived at a session without having attempted the assigned factorisation questions; this led to slower progress during class, as noted: "it is important to do more questions prior to the class to have a more productive session."
In Year 10 algebra, skipping written steps—preferring mental calculation—caused confusion with brackets and negatives, which muddled longer problems.
A senior student in trigonometry left diagrams incomplete, which made angle application tasks harder than needed.
Meanwhile, a Year 5 student's revision relied only on familiar multiplication facts rather than tackling new or challenging types, limiting retention and confidence when new topics appeared.
A tutor in Woodville South recently noticed a Year 9 student, who used to rush through answers and make avoidable errors, is now talking through each problem out loud and carefully double-checking her steps—she even asked the tutor to check only if she was really stuck.
In a senior session, another student who previously struggled with rationalising expressions was able to simplify complex surds independently after practicing just a few examples.
Meanwhile, one younger learner showed new independence by reading times from an analogue clock on her own, then drawing those times without needing any hints.
