I have got to say that Miles is absolutely perfect. Besides being prompt and all that, his explanations are so good that Roland shares them with his school friends to enable them to understand tricky concepts in class. They inevitably will say "Oh, I understand now!" He is making Maths Methods manageable.Kristen, Flemington
Year 8 student Nick focused on graphing linear equations by both intercept and slope methods, and explored parallel linear relationships as a new topic.
In Year 11, Laura revised algebraic techniques including expanding brackets and factorisation, alongside practicing worded problems involving linear equations.
Meanwhile, Year 12 student Bita worked through exam-style questions covering integration techniques and the application of circular functions, with extra attention to graphing trigonometric equations by hand.
In Year 12 Maths Methods, a student often avoided voicing questions or uncertainties, which made it harder to address knowledge gaps—"she was reluctant to inform me which areas were her strengths and weaknesses." This led to incomplete feedback loops before tests.
Another Year 8 student struggled with keeping workbooks dated and organized; pages without dates made it tricky to track progress and revision for probability topics.
For a Year 9 algebra session, skipping steps in written working resulted in missed sign changes, causing repeated errors. These habits left students searching for errors instead of consolidating understanding when under test pressure.
One Kensington tutor noted that a Year 11 student, previously hesitant to speak up, now clearly vocalises her thought process and even points out the tutor's mistakes while tackling advanced calculus problems.
In another session, a high schooler who struggled with identifying explanatory and response variables began confidently explaining his reasoning out loud—something he'd avoided before.
Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who often guessed at answers started checking her own work for errors without prompting and could explain decimal division steps back to the tutor. Last week, she corrected two test mistakes herself after only one explanation.
