Joanna is going really well with her tutoring with Paul and she says he is really good!Jane, Normanhurst
Year 6 student Lucy revised angle sums in polygons and practiced calculating surface area for various shapes.
In Year 9, Daniel tackled simultaneous equations using substitution and elimination, then moved on to worded algebra problems for extra challenge.
Meanwhile, Year 12 student Emily focused on compound versus simple interest calculations and worked through HSC-style financial maths questions to consolidate exam readiness.
In Year 9 algebra, one student repeatedly relied on memorizing formulas rather than understanding when and why to use them—"not every question can fit into a formula perfectly," the tutor noted—making it tough to adapt to unfamiliar problems.
A Year 11 student tackling statistics struggled with organizing key definitions and formulas; instead of preparing a reference sheet, time was lost searching through notes mid-task.
Meanwhile, a Year 7 learner's confidence dropped whenever questions were worded differently or seemed long, sometimes skipping attempts altogether until prompted.
During trigonometry in Year 10, missed homework left gaps that resurfaced during multi-step bearings questions.
A Hornsby tutor noticed a Year 11 student who previously struggled with worded problems now picks out key information and confidently applies the depreciation formula—something she hesitated to attempt before.
Another high schooler, after weeks of confusion with simultaneous equations, managed to solve them algebraically without hints, even remembering all necessary steps on his own.
At the primary level, a Year 5 student who used to guess answers when unsure has started underlining parts of questions and openly asks for help if stuck. In one session, he finished every question in section one with little to no prompting.
