Shane is personable, punctual and knowledgeable. He is helping me improve in maths and is interesting, practical and straight-talking. I highly recommend him as a tutor.Leilani Tuiano, Virginia
Year 7 student Liam focused on simplifying algebraic expressions using index laws and worked through questions on surface area and volume of prisms.
Year 9 student Emily tackled trigonometry, applying sine and cosine rules to solve bearings problems by drawing diagrams for worded scenarios.
Meanwhile, Year 11 student Ava completed a statistics task calculating mean, median, mode, and range from real datasets, along with classifying data types as nominal, ordinal, discrete or continuous.
Omitting units in measurement problems was a recurring issue for a Year 9 student, resulting in incomplete answers ("needs to remember to put units on answers of measurement questions").
In Year 10 trigonometry, another student relied heavily on the formula sheet but mixed up variables and missed key terms when substituting values, particularly with sine and cosine rules.
For a senior student working with simultaneous equations, there was initial confusion from not extracting all information from worded questions; diagramming steps were skipped or incomplete.
In Year 7, surface area tasks became overwhelming without stepwise breakdowns, leading to forgotten steps and errors in calculation sequence.
One Banyo tutor noticed a Year 9 student who used to freeze when faced with simultaneous equations now confidently works through each step and even explains the process back before tackling new problems alone.
In a recent high school session, a Year 11 student who often guessed on trigonometry questions instead paused to draw accurate diagrams and identified the correct rule without prompting.
Meanwhile, a younger primary student showed initiative by checking her own graphing answers after plotting coordinates—something she previously avoided unless asked—before moving on to fill out another table independently.
It takes a lot to do well in biology. Moving up the curriculum can be a challenge and if students don't jump in with both feet it's easy to fall behind.
