The one on one tutoring is definitely assisting Caitlin for Maths. She is seeing a slight improvement and beginning to understand topics in more depth. She is building rapport with Bernadeine; so all is going well at this stage.Sharon
Year 4 student Layla focused on reading analogue and digital clocks as well as converting between 12-hour and 24-hour time formats, using practical examples.
In Year 9, Will revised Pythagoras' theorem and applied it to finding unknown side lengths in triangles, along with exam revision sessions targeting key geometry concepts.
Meanwhile, Year 10 student Sophia worked through index laws—including simplifying expressions with indices—and practiced expanding complex algebraic brackets during her lessons.
In a recent Year 9 maths session, one student arrived without the required materials, which meant time was lost retrieving resources instead of focusing on algebraic rearrangement. As noted by a tutor, "he had to spend the lesson redoing work after losing his previous homework sheet."
In Year 7, a student's note-taking and recall of patterns and formulas were impacted when she hadn't had class since the previous week and was unaware of what unit would be moving on to next—her written work layout also made pattern recognition harder.
Missed homework in Year 10 led to repeated sign errors during algebra practice; confusion lingered until corrections were attempted together.
A Smithfield tutor noticed that a Year 8 student, who previously waited for hints, now brings her own questions to sessions after preparing independently for a maths test—she even tackled some fraction problems without prompting.
In Year 11, Layla used to need step-by-step support with assignments, but recently she's started making teacher-requested changes herself and handled more complex exam revision questions on her own.
Meanwhile, in primary school maths, one student who often rushed through division exercises has begun checking her answers methodically and asking to try extra practice problems before finishing up.
Why would you ever need to know about combustion, corrosion, and electrochemical processes? Most students wonder about that too, especially if they don't plan on going into science.
Chemistry can seem abstract, learning about elements and matter, how equilibrium occurs and how chemical systems react. No wonder students get discouraged.
All it takes for a student to go from a mild distaste for chemistry to understanding what is scribbled in the textbook is someone to point out what to avoid and where to put in that extra hour of revision. It's like with any problem situation in schooling and even in their personal life, students need to know about using effective strategies. Then all you need is persistence, staying on task until you reach your goal.
