Maddie is enjoying her sessions with Courtney and we're happy with her tutoring at this stage. With only two sessions, it's still very early to see any progress, but I was well impressed with Courtney's availability to help Maddie, including sending extra resources via email. Much appreciated. So far, all is well.Anabela, Canning Vale
Year 8 student Ava focused on mean, median, mode and range in statistics and interpreted Venn diagrams to compare data sets.
Year 9 student Jacob worked through congruency and similarity proofs for triangles as well as reviewing fraction operations.
Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ella practiced solving questions involving simple interest and refreshed her understanding of decimal operations using targeted textbook exercises.
In Year 4, one student repeatedly forgot to complete homework and became frustrated when facing subtraction regrouping—this led to a breakdown during the session.
A Year 6 learner showed over-reliance on calculators for even basic calculations: "He reached for the calculator straight away in class, skipping mental checks."
In Year 11 Mathematics Specialist, review of past assessment tasks was missed, making it harder to pinpoint recurring errors before exams.
For a senior Chemistry student, skipped revision on ionic equations resulted in confusion with unfamiliar reaction types. Confidence dropped noticeably after setbacks; work was sometimes abandoned mid-task.
A Ferndale tutor noticed a big shift in one Year 10 student who used to freeze when facing tricky equations—this week, she tackled complex algebraic problems with far less hesitation and even chose the right method herself.
Another high schooler, previously unsure about chemistry concepts, managed to answer acid-base questions accurately without prompts and completed a full set of practice test problems independently.
Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who was reluctant to attempt worded time problems last month has started solving them confidently, finishing her latest set without skipping any questions.
No one has doubts about the importance of English in the Australian school curriculum. Not only is it a mandatory subject to complete year 12, but it's a useful life skill. Verbal and written language skills are crucial in the information age. Comprehending texts, textual analysis, structuring written reports, refining creative processes and applying a structure to them, articulating thoughts concisely ... these skills are going to be useful in just about any career path. Of course, it all starts in the school classroom.
