Katie has been absolutely amazing to my daughter. Even just on the first trial session my daughter felt she has learned a lot from Katie. My daughter has been stressing out with her Chemistry assessment but with Katie's help she was able to submit it on time and hopefully she will get a high mark for it.Gianna
Year 4 student Anabelle practiced reading and sorting **sight words into groups**, then worked on writing sentences to strengthen her literacy skills.
For Year 10, Micah focused on creative writing tasks in English by **drafting and proofreading a short story**, while also revising grammar fundamentals like sentence structure and comma use.
Meanwhile, Year 11 student Ethan tackled trigonometry—**applying SOH CAH TOA to solve for unknown sides and angles**—and was introduced to inverse trigonometric functions through practice questions.
Several high school students did not bring essential materials or class notes to tutorials, which made it harder to review mistakes or keep track of progress—one tutor wrote, "student forgot for the first lesson."
In Year 11 Methods, a student skipped homework and struggled with setting out working clearly when rearranging equations, leading to confusion with unknowns in fractions.
Another senior student completed a practice exam quickly but omitted key steps; errors crept in as checking was skipped.
Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner hesitated to sound out unfamiliar words, preferring to guess after seeing only the first few letters.
One high school student, who'd struggled to identify the right trigonometric ratio for different problems, was able to confidently apply SOH CAH TOA and even tackle worded questions after some practice.
Another older student began handing in draft essays on time—a real shift from previous delays—and responded well to feedback by quickly picking up grammar points that had caused confusion before.
Meanwhile, in primary sessions, Tayla—who found fraction work tricky last term—solved conversion problems easily this week and completed her homework without needing extra reminders.
