Exceptional Stephanie is really enjoying tutoring with Jia Jia. Jia Jia is very easy going and Steph is happy with how it's all going. Thanks for being so organised and informative. It's made the experience smooth!Liz, Macleod
Year 6 student Amanat explored water transport in plants, diving into xylem function and then linking this to atomic theory and basic chemical bonding.
In Year 10, Leah focused on calculating moles using both n=m/M and n=N/Na formulas, practising with worded chemistry problems to build confidence in rearranging equations.
Meanwhile, Year 11 student Amanat reviewed the stages of photosynthesis—light-dependent and light-independent reactions—clarifying inputs and outputs for each step using summary diagrams.
In Year 12 Biology, one student left several answer spaces blank during a tutorial, seeking clarification before attempting any response. As the tutor observed, "it will be more valuable for her to first attempt an answer (however imperfect), and then for us to discuss it together." This avoidance of initial attempts may limit exam performance, where immediate feedback isn't available.
In Year 8 Maths, another student often forgot to complete homework tasks—recently missing practice on fractions—which meant less opportunity for targeted feedback and skill consolidation. Hesitation or missed practice translated into gaps during class discussion and revision.
One Macleod tutor noticed a big change in a Year 11 biology student who, after previously waiting for help when stuck, took initiative by researching answers to her homework independently and arrived at the next session ready to explain what she'd learned.
Meanwhile, a high school chemistry student came prepared with specific questions about practice problems she'd tried solo—something she hadn't done before—which led to more focused discussions together.
In a younger session, one primary student started using diagrams to break down tricky multiple-choice maths problems rather than guessing, helping her confidently eliminate wrong answers herself.
