At this point, we are happy with the way things are progressing. Ryan seems a bright and capable young man and Kirsten does feel the sessions are assisting her.Tracee, Padstow
Year 4 student Pranay focused on spelling difficult words and improving his story writing by revising descriptive introductions, while also practising basic reading and comprehension skills.
Year 6 student Beau worked through multiplying and dividing fractions as well as order of operations, with extra practice using maths mentals exercises to strengthen understanding.
Meanwhile, Year 6 student Grace tackled equivalent fractions—learning how to cancel them out—and moved into adding and subtracting decimals, often applying concepts through worked examples in her homework.
In Year 8 English, not applying written feedback on story drafts meant improvements in structure and clarity were missed—one note read, "I have given him both verbal and written feedback... I would like him to start applying it."
A Year 7 student hesitated to ask questions during class or tutoring, missing chances to clarify misunderstood concepts.
In Year 6 maths, skipping working out led to difficulties tracing errors later ("she is forgetting to show this when answering questions both during the tutoring session and whilst completing homework").
By lesson's end, a Year 7 student often disengaged, leaving harder problems unfinished.
One Padstow tutoring session saw a high school student, Noah, take real ownership of his study by breaking down an English assessment with the tutor and independently committing to submit a final essay draft by a set deadline—a big shift from needing step-by-step guidance.
Another win came when Robine, also in high school, started leaving questions blank in her homework if she was unsure, instead of guessing—she now actively asks for help so she can fix mistakes together during sessions.
Meanwhile, younger student Pranay proudly shared that he's begun regularly asking his teacher clarifying questions at school when confused.
