Year 10 student Alyssia focused on chemistry topics including titration calculations using molar ratios and balancing redox equations in preparation for her exam.
In Year 9, Jack worked through factorisation of polynomials and practised graphing linear equations, paying attention to identifying gradients and intercepts.
Meanwhile, a Year 8 student spent the session consolidating understanding of Pythagoras' theorem by tackling both simple questions and test-style revision problems.
A Year 8 student struggled to explain reasoning behind answers in maths, with a tutor noting, "Needs to explain his reasoning behind answers more," leading to incomplete marks even when the solution was correct.
In Year 10 algebra, skipping clear working steps caused confusion and made it harder to find small sign errors—especially under test conditions.
A senior chemistry student relied heavily on set equations instead of applying concepts independently, so adapting to unfamiliar questions became difficult.
Meanwhile, a Year 4 student's handwriting issues—such as inconsistent use of capital letters—made written work hard for both themselves and others to follow during class activities.
One Summertown tutor noticed a Year 11 student who had always lost marks to small algebra mistakes start double-checking his work during practice tests—he now catches most errors before moving on, which hadn't happened in previous sessions.
A Year 9 student who used to stay quiet when confused has begun asking clear, specific questions about fractions and index laws, showing real initiative to fill knowledge gaps rather than waiting for prompts.
Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner, after weeks of reminders, managed to add and subtract mixed numbers independently with only minimal guidance needed this time.
Struggling academically while seeing others succeed can feel disheartening. It may seem as though "successful students" have it easy, as if solutions just pop into their head. Seeing the cycle of success cycling round and round for others can seem like natural talent. Geniuses do exist but most successful students are just normal people who have somehow learned how to succeed academically.
Good news! Success leaves clues. These students tend to be prepared, to do their homework & regular revision. They focus on comprehension not on memorization. Most importantly they have growth mindset not a fixed mindset - failures are an opportunity for growth not proof of inadequacy.
Whatever your goals, the right attitude and the right study habits will help. A good tutor can do much more than just teach the content. They can help your child learn to be a better student, to develop a growth mindset and establish their own cycle of success. When you use Ezy Math to find a tutor this is what you're getting.
