Proven We have nothing but positive things to say about Kaylee. She has been amazing! Ella adored her and she is a great tutor. Patient, kind, flexible and knowledgeable.Darlene, Hamersley
Year 5 student Ben focused on area and perimeter of squares and rectangles, plus practiced converting between units such as centimetres to metres.
Year 8 Bronte worked through problems involving linear equations from graphs—finding x- and y-intercepts, gradients, and identifying perpendicular lines—and revisited multiplying and dividing fractions with variables.
Meanwhile, Year 10 Cohen revised quadratic factorisation (including completing the square), then moved on to graphing exponential functions and describing their key features like intercepts and asymptotes.
During recent high school maths sessions, one student left worksheets unfinished and submitted only a single page of class notes over three lessons; their practice test was largely unattempted, so essential content on sketching quadratics and five-number summaries wasn't reinforced.
"Ben didn't show me any written attempts for one of his homework questions (linear eqns)," as a tutor observed—avoiding working through the steps hid errors with negatives and slowed progress in worded problems.
In Year 12, another rushed through a test due to nerves, leading to missed justifications in geometry proofs.
The sense of falling behind grew as gaps widened week by week.
One Balcatta tutor noticed Bronte making a real shift in her approach to fraction problems: after initially slipping up, she started talking through each step out loud and was able to catch and fix her own mistakes—something she hadn't done before.
Another win came from Ben in Year 9 maths, who had previously rushed his tests and made small errors; this time, he identified where he'd gone wrong by backchecking his answers aloud, which helped him avoid the same mistakes on homework.
In an upper primary session, a student who used to guess at clock reading now draws the clock hands herself and reads the time with growing accuracy.
