Impressive Communication is great and informative, when EZY Math assigned a tutor for my daughter that I did not want they were great about finding another person more suitable to our needs.Mrs Giovanna Gupta, Athelstone
Year 4 student Alex worked on consolidating multiplication facts, especially the 6 and 7 times tables, and practised finding perimeter and area of rectangles using diagrams.
In Year 9, James focused on solving linear equations and identifying x- and y-intercepts when graphing lines from equations.
Meanwhile, Year 10 student Priya explored trigonometry by applying the cosine rule to solve triangle problems and used a cheat sheet for extra practice ahead of her upcoming test.
Several process challenges emerged across primary and high school levels.
In Year 4 maths, incomplete homework was a repeated concern—"Kalani should remember to do her homework," noted after multiple subtraction and times table sessions, leaving gaps in revision.
A Year 9 student came to lessons without books, which meant "less related questions" could be tackled that week.
In senior maths (Year 11), over-reliance on calculators surfaced during standard deviation tasks; when asked to work manually, confusion slowed progress.
One tutor observed a Year 8 student organizing ideas for English assignments but struggling to format them clearly, making conclusions harder to draft confidently.
One Athelstone tutor noticed a Year 11 student who previously struggled with test mistakes now quickly pinpointing where she went wrong and independently correcting her working—something she hesitated to attempt last term.
In another session, a Year 9 student who used to rely heavily on prompting surprised her tutor by solving challenging equations almost entirely on her own after just one walkthrough.
Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who would often rush through word problems is now pausing to underline key information before answering, leading her to finish every question in the set correctly this week.
