Year 5 student Emily practised converting between percentages and decimals, and worked through real-life percentage word problems.
In Year 8, Jack focused on solving linear equations and graphing straight lines, as well as tackling algebraic word expressions.
Meanwhile, Year 10 student Sarah explored factorising quadratic equations and used the turning point formula to analyse the graphs of quadratics.
A Year 8 student hesitated to start solving problems in algebra unless prompted, worried about making mistakes; this perfectionism slowed progress and meant fewer attempts at unfamiliar material.
"He often waits for my approval before continuing," a tutor noted after a lesson on negative numbers—leading to lost opportunities for independent reasoning.
In Year 10 trigonometry, another student relied heavily on calculator routines rather than working through steps by hand, which hid gaps in understanding SOHCAHTOA when applied in worded questions.
A Year 7's messy written equations made it difficult even for themselves to spot where a sign error had crept in.
A tutor in High Wycombe noticed a big shift with Niru, a Year 10 student who started using his own strategies to tackle tough maths problems instead of just following set steps—something he hadn't done before.
Remy, in Year 11, chose to work on linear equations right away despite her past frustration; she pushed through the tricky parts and even began asking deeper questions about why methods work.
In primary school, Tyler was excited to learn new mental maths shortcuts for divisibility and multiplying by 11, and immediately put them into practice without hesitation.
