Impressive He is a great tutor that explains topics clearly. My son has had a good experience for his first lesson. He has learnt a lot for one lesson and is excited for the comig lessons.Wilfredo
Year 7 student Riley worked on solving inequalities and explored gradients in linear equations, practicing graphing techniques.
For Year 9, Sarah tackled simultaneous equations using both substitution and elimination methods, then moved on to a chapter review focusing on BODMAS and fraction operations.
Meanwhile, Year 11 student Ethan concentrated on calculus skills—specifically differentiation—and also reviewed function properties by working through targeted exam-style questions.
A Year 11 student struggled to focus during exams, leading to "a lot of careless mistakes"—missing marks in questions he otherwise understood.
In Year 7, one student overcomplicated simple fraction problems and sometimes forgot basic steps after missing class from an injury; this made catching up slower.
For a Year 8 learner, confusion with shape reflections grew each time the mirror line moved, leaving him frustrated mid-task.
Across multiple high school years, incomplete tutor homework was noted: "Requesting more consistency in completing tutor homework," which meant missed chances for targeted feedback before tests.
One Shalvey tutor noticed a Year 11 student stopped relying on graphing software for linear equations and now completes classwork on time—a big shift from earlier habits of hesitancy.
Another high schooler, previously making small errors with negative numbers, has recently shown real progress mastering mean, median, and mode; he even solved a harder median problem without needing hints.
In a primary session, Musawer—who often guessed angles before—now confidently adds them up independently and explains his steps out loud during practice.
