Due to Nakita's tutor doing an amazing job last year, Nakita has not needed his skills for the beginning of this year, comprehending and understanding the maths content at school extremely well.allison, Petrie
Year 4 student Poppy explored scale factors and calculated the volume of cylinders and rectangular prisms using visual examples.
In Year 10, Tasha practised finding the surface area of various shapes and reviewed exam topics with a focus on applying formulas accurately.
For Year 11, Ella worked through her in-class maths assignment, clarifying key steps for each question and addressing areas she found confusing to boost her understanding.
A Year 11 student often rushed through differentiation and trigonometry, leading to small mistakes between dollar and cent coins as noted by the tutor.
In Year 7, one student left most worded maths problems blank on a worksheet, hesitating to attempt unless completely sure—a pattern that carried into test revision.
For a Year 9 assignment, another relied on "guessing equations to see if it works," instead of building methodical strategies or using class notes for guidance.
Meanwhile, in primary maths, several students avoided writing their working out, which hid small errors and made it hard to spot where understanding broke down during subtraction or time calculations.
One Petrie tutor noticed that a Year 11 student, Kiana, arrived with a list of tricky maths questions she'd struggled with in class—by the end of their session, she worked through every one independently and even finished early.
In another session, Clancey (Year 9) started unsure about rearranging equations but, after some guided practice, was able to solve them on his own without needing help.
Meanwhile, Tamia in Year 4 tackled her reading comprehension story solo and answered almost all follow-up questions correctly, remembering key details and going back to check when unsure.
