Very helpful staff. Invoicing was simple Tutor was a little insecure/shy which was not very motivating for my child. He was late on a number of occasions but very happy to stay over the 1hr to complete work.Gillian, Frenchs Forest
Year 5 student Jessica worked through pattern recognition and tackled long division using step-by-step examples.
In Year 8, Ethan focused on converting fractions to percentages and decimals, then interpreted pie graphs and charts with real-life data sets.
Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ava explored financial maths by calculating GST and percentage change, applying these skills to practical scenarios.
Several high school students missed assigned homework on multiple occasions, particularly in Year 9 and Year 10 mathematics—one tutor observed, "He did not complete his homework again which is unfortunate."
In a senior maths lesson, a student forgot key content from previous weeks during a test review, suggesting little revision outside of sessions.
For one Year 8 algebra session, steps were often skipped in working out equations ("attempted to do some conversion questions in his head"), leading to confusion and small errors that weren't easily traced back.
During advanced geometry with a Year 11 student, messy layout made it difficult to follow reasoning or spot where the method broke down.
A tutor in Forestville noticed a Year 9 student who previously mixed up algebraic rules is now correctly applying BODMAS without prompting, making fewer calculation errors during practice.
In another session, a Year 11 student showed new independence by identifying and solving gradient questions on their own—this used to be an area where he'd hesitate or wait for hints.
Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner who was once unsure about times tables now answers multiplication problems with growing speed and checks her work before moving on to the next question.
