Year 4 student Naba worked on identifying and writing ordinal numbers as words, along with using essential basic words in sentences to boost reading and writing fluency.
Year 8 student Daniel focused on solving linear equations in algebra and applied the Pythagoras theorem to geometry problems, often working through example questions together for clarity.
Meanwhile, Year 10 student Sarah completed revision on quadratic equations and tackled probability worksheets, ensuring strong understanding by practising a range of worded problems from recent assessments.
In Year 10 mathematics, a recurring challenge has been translating worded problems into equations—one tutor noted, "he gets tangled in his thoughts when the answer is there, but gets lost in the process," especially during algebra and multi-step reasoning. This habit led to incomplete written working and confusion between operations, slowing progress.
In Year 4, not reading questions carefully resulted in misunderstanding fraction word problems until they were read aloud together; this meant correct answers only came after significant prompting.
For a Year 1 student, messy number writing made her work difficult to read and occasionally unreadable—extra time was spent correcting basic presentation instead of moving forward.
One Joslin tutor noticed a high school student who previously struggled with fractions was able to tackle new problems accurately during their session, even managing a bonus question with minimal help—a big shift from earlier lessons where he'd often get stuck.
Another secondary student has begun to explain her reasoning in probability questions rather than just giving answers, showing she's thinking through the steps instead of guessing.
In primary years, Naba is now reading and writing numbers up to 100 confidently on her own, after needing frequent guidance before; today she completed all number-writing activities without any errors.
Maths doesn't have to be hard. The right support and the right approach change all that. Just ask any student who is doing well in maths - they usually love the feeling of "getting it". This is what we aim to create for students - intellectual independence and joy of learning. It's the only path to success in maths whether your goal is to pass or achieve A's. We focus on the content but also on teaching the right approach to learning maths. Probably the most common mistake students make is rule dependence, trying to memorize what to do without understanding why it's done that way - it doesn't work. But each student has their own issues, some with confidence others with silly mistakes or exam technique ...
