Proven Everything seems to be going well so far. There was a lot of laughter at this week’s session. That’s got to be a good sign! I asked Oscar why he had fun with Nick and not me. He said “I don’t mean to offend you Mum, but Nick knows what he’s doing!”. How’s that for a testimonial?Lorraine, Alderley
Year 6 student Lily focused on percentages and an introduction to Year 7 algebra, exploring new terminology and building comfort with simple equations.
For Year 8, Jay worked through solving one- and two-step equations as well as graphing functions, reinforcing his understanding by practicing with different types of variables.
Meanwhile, Year 9 student Sarah reviewed the Pythagorean theorem alongside measurement concepts and geometric transformations using diagrams to clarify each step.
In Year 8 algebra, one student relied on mental calculations and avoided writing out steps, which led to missed negative signs; as a tutor noted, "she tried to do it all in her head and lost track of the negatives."
In a Year 10 session on indices, skipping written solutions meant errors weren't caught until checking at the end.
Meanwhile, a Year 4 spelling activity showed that forgetting to count letters aloud resulted in vowel combinations being overlooked.
When tackling worded perimeter problems in Year 7 maths, confusion arose from not revisiting formulas or reading questions fully—time was spent reworking rather than building confidence.
A tutor in Newmarket noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who previously hesitated to speak up—this week, she began clearly voicing her doubts and asking questions whenever she was stuck, instead of just nodding along.
Another high schooler surprised himself by getting his first ever 100% on a homework set about decimals, after struggling with careless errors before.
In a Year 4 session, one student who used to rush ahead is now pausing to show full working for each step in word problems, making fewer mistakes as a result and choosing to explain her reasoning out loud.
