We're very happy with Ashi. She has helped Claudia a lot. She feels that she has almost caught up to her class again. Ashi has done a very good job.Peter
Year 8 student Lily reviewed solving simultaneous equations and practiced finding the equation of a parabola using given points.
Year 10 student Marcus worked on completing the square for quadratics and revisited factorising quadratic expressions with step-by-step examples.
Meanwhile, Year 7 student Priya focused on probability concepts by constructing Venn diagrams and interpreting two-way tables to solve worded questions.
A Year 9 student left several homework tasks incomplete, particularly on trigonometry and algebra revision, which meant confusion lingered around positive and negative integers ("Homework needs doing and positive negative integers needs some work still").
In Year 11, over-reliance on the calculator during exams led to missed manual checking steps in fractions questions; as noted, "too reliant on calculator and does not try to work things out manually."
A Year 7 learner avoided attempting worded problems altogether, missing chances to build confidence with unfamiliar scenarios.
Meanwhile, a senior student began an assignment late, resulting in rushed planning and unfinished evaluation sections.
One Larapinta tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to freeze on assignments now takes initiative—last week, she completed most of her statistics project independently and even double-checked calculations before asking for help.
A Year 8 boy, who often guessed rather than asked questions, has started openly seeking clarification during lessons and was able to choose the right formula for surface area problems without prompting.
Meanwhile, in a recent Year 6 session, a student hesitant with algebra began tackling practice problems solo and correctly applied the distributive law on her own for the first time.
