Leo is a great match for Roy and they both seemed to have made it work from the start. He is approachable and communicates well and Roy understands what and how he is saying things, so, so far so good.Bronwyn
Year 5 student Zac worked on adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions—including switching between mixed and improper forms—and practiced using words like "of" to understand fraction questions in context.
In Year 8, Yillen tackled surface area and volume of shapes as well as applying Pythagoras' theorem to real-life measurement problems, often breaking down each formula step by step.
Meanwhile, Year 9 student Aidan focused on rearranging formulas to find unknowns and substituting values into equations, reinforcing these skills through targeted homework questions.
A Year 8 student left notes and their workbook at school, arriving to a lesson without key materials—this made effective revision before an exam impossible.
In a Year 11 session, a calculator was missing, so the tutor had to work out answers instead; "he didn't have a calculator handy," which interrupted practice with Pi-based questions.
Meanwhile, a Year 4 student skipped writing working in column addition, leading to simple mistakes that were hard to spot afterwards.
Without regular home practice (noted for both Years 7 and 9), basic concepts like ratios or significant figures remain shaky going into new topics.
A tutor in Pretty Beach noticed that one high school student, previously hesitant to speak up, began volunteering answers during problem-solving and could tackle some questions unaided by the end of the lesson.
Another secondary student made a significant shift by openly requesting extra homework for more challenge—something he hadn't done before—and later described how feedback from his teacher helped him identify where he'd gone wrong on an assignment.
Meanwhile, a Year 3 student who used to need encouragement with money problems is now drawing her own currency diagrams and independently working through addition and subtraction challenges.
