Year 6 student Greta worked on solving two-step division problems and practiced identifying what each maths question is asking, alongside reading comprehension with poetry and "Platform 13."

In Year 9, Ruby focused on trigonometry by labelling sides of right-angled triangles, writing sin/cos/tan ratios, and using a calculator to solve for unknowns.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Jamie revised circle mensuration concepts, tackling problems involving arc length and sector area calculations.

A Year 3 student often avoided showing written working in fractions and division, especially when problems grew more complex. As one tutor observed, "her layout & clear written working is important as this will help her to understand her own thought process."

In Year 10, a student preparing for trigonometry assessments misunderstood when certain rules (like the cosine rule) applied—notes showed that not double-checking or misreading questions led to errors in isolating variables.

Meanwhile, a senior student's reluctance to ask for clarification during pre-tests meant missed opportunities for feedback; blank answers replaced communication, leaving teachers unaware of what support was actually needed.

A tutor in Golden Point noticed a Year 8 student who used to freeze when faced with negative numbers now confidently solves long multiplications using the lattice method, even choosing when to use it without prompting.

In Year 11 maths, another student made a leap by quickly grasping exponent laws and then applying them to solve equations presented in unfamiliar formats—something they hesitated with just weeks ago.

Meanwhile, a primary student recently surprised herself by reading aloud expressively from "King John's Christmas," where previously she'd avoid tricky words; now she pauses to ask about meanings instead of skipping over them.
