Year 4 student Joseph worked on place value and rounding numbers, as well as identifying prime and composite numbers using hands-on number exercises.
Year 8 student Rory tackled linear relationships by exploring the y = mx + c form and practiced solving algebraic equations with substitution.
For Year 10, Nancy focused on financial maths concepts including simple interest calculations and was introduced to compound interest problems through step-by-step examples.
In Year 9 algebra, one student often copied notes quickly and "would miss a sign or two because he go past too fast," leading to errors in factorising tasks and missed steps in quadratic problems.
In upper primary mathematics, another student repeatedly defaulted to using algorithms for multiplication rather than trying mental strategies, slowing progress on multi-step questions and making it harder to spot mistakes—especially when asked to convert mixed numbers or simplify fractions.
During NAPLAN practice, incomplete written working meant key problem-solving steps were forgotten, causing avoidable confusion and extra time spent re-reading questions instead of moving forward confidently.
A Girraween tutor recently noticed a Year 9 student who previously hesitated to ask questions is now openly requesting help with tricky algebra steps, instead of quietly guessing—especially during lessons on factorising quadratics.
Another high schooler made a leap in Maths: after weeks of uncertainty, she managed to self-correct her mistakes when converting improper fractions to mixed numbers, even explaining her thinking aloud for the first time.
In a primary session, one student surprised his tutor by identifying and pronouncing words correctly while reading aloud—a marked change from earlier reluctance to attempt unfamiliar vocabulary.
