Standard Helga has been fantastic with our year 7 daughter who has needed assistance with maths. She has tailored the approach to suit her needs.Natasha
Year 4 student Riley focused on multiplication and division skills through timed tests and practical examples.
In Year 9, Sienna tackled algebra fundamentals using worked examples and reviewed exam questions she found challenging, while also covering financial maths topics such as percentages and simple interest.
For Year 11, Ethan explored the quadratic formula and completing the square in algebra, then applied these techniques to solve more advanced equations ahead of his upcoming assessment.
In Year 10, Danika often relied on formulas without fully understanding their purpose—especially in algebra and abstract questions.
When faced with complex or wordy problems, she sometimes skipped them entirely. As one tutor observed, "She tends to avoid the questions that don't look manageable." This meant opportunities for deeper learning were missed.
In senior years, Liz's tendency to plug numbers into formulas instead of reasoning through financial maths scenarios led to confusion when unfamiliar question types appeared.
Meanwhile, Lara's written work in Year 8 was described as disorganised; unclear layout made it harder to trace errors and consolidate concepts.
One Tanilba Bay tutoring session saw a high school student, Danika, who previously hesitated to ask for help, now regularly arriving with specific questions flagged in her notes and tackling challenging topics like bearings more independently—she even managed to solve a question solo by the end.
Another local tutor noted Liz's shift from uncertainty in financial maths to confidently explaining normal distribution problems back to the tutor during exam prep.
Meanwhile, primary student Lara, once prone to giving up on tricky times tables, now pushes through and recently scored 31 correct answers in 100 seconds—a personal best for her.
