Standard I am very happy with the way she is tutoring my son. In only two sessions, my son is showing great interest. He loves her teaching style. Great work!Sudhanshu gaur
Year 10 student Sophie worked through solving linear simultaneous equations using substitution and revisited circle mensuration with step-by-step diagrams.
For Year 11, Daniel focused on trigonometry—specifically SOH CAH TOA and both the sine and cosine rules—and practiced finding unknown sides in right-angled triangles using calculators.
Meanwhile, Year 12 student Jack tackled proof by contradiction and mathematical induction, applying these logical proofs to algebraic statements drawn from recent classwork.
A Year 11 student working through mathematical induction and negated statements showed ongoing confusion, with a tutor noting "a formal session going over it" was needed—misunderstandings here made subsequent problem-solving slower and more frustrating.
In Year 9, one learner tended to jump to answers in algebra without double-checking or clearly showing working; as the tutor observed, "he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors."
Meanwhile, a primary student hesitated to write out solutions for worded fraction problems unless fully confident in the answer. This led to blank responses on tests and missed opportunities for targeted feedback.
A Lake Gardens tutor recently saw a Year 10 student move from hesitating over exponent laws to independently solving equations with non-standard layouts, needing only minimal hints.
In a senior session, another student who previously struggled to form equations on their own began confidently applying the quadratic formula after practicing setting up problems themselves.
Meanwhile, during a primary session, one younger learner shifted from frequent mistakes in array-based fraction exercises to reliably grouping and counting out correct answers—now checking her work methodically by matching dots rather than guessing.
