It was a really positive experience for Darcy. Darcy and Tanvi established rapport immediately and Darcy was very excited after the session.Trudy, Greenwith
Year 4 student Kody focused on multiplication facts and strategies for solving money word problems.
In Year 10, Lorry worked through linear programming—identifying constraints in real-world problems and graphing feasible regions—and also practised trigonometry, especially using the cosine rule to find triangle areas.
For Year 11, Lucy reviewed chemistry topics like intermolecular forces and polarity as they relate to alcohols, and tackled statistics concepts such as discrete random variables by working through initial lesson notes after an absence.
A Year 10 student working on algebraic manipulation left several expressions unsimplified, which made later steps much harder—she often leaves obviously unsimplified expressions as they are, which then makes later parts of the problem difficult.
In a senior Maths session, one student forgot their calculator and struggled with complex arithmetic, limiting practice on standard deviation calculations.
Meanwhile, a Year 7 student avoided showing working for worded problems out of uncertainty and lost confidence after small setbacks. This hesitation led to missed learning opportunities when tackling trigonometry and surface area tasks.
A tutor in Hillbank recently saw Lucy, a Year 12 student, move from hesitating over chemical test procedures to independently preparing a full report outline and confidently identifying compound types.
Meanwhile, Lorry in Year 10 has started taking the lead in English by drafting nearly entire paragraphs on his own after initially needing step-by-step guidance—he now brings his own ideas and asks for help only when truly stuck.
In primary years, Alice's sessions have shifted from constant support with addition to her tackling multiplication questions mostly solo and asking for help only when she really needs it.
