Year 7 student Emily worked through algebraic equations and reviewed indices, using past exam questions to address common errors.
Year 8 student Elizabeth revised surds and indices in preparation for an upcoming test, with a focus on accurate simplification.
For Year 6, Liam concentrated on strengthening core skills in multiplication and division, revisiting foundational calculations to build confidence and accuracy.
A Year 8 student often jumped straight to answers in algebra and fractions, skipping written working and making errors that could have been caught by showing steps. As a tutor observed, "she skipped wording questions that seemed hard," missing out on valuable practice with complex problems.
In Year 11 revision, a student repeatedly relied on familiar techniques for trigonometry but avoided harder composite shape problems unless prompted, leading to shaky confidence before tests.
One Year 5 student was reluctant to write down working in long division, causing confusion during feedback; key calculation mistakes went unnoticed until homework review time.
A Wakeley tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to skip working steps now writing down known values and what she needs to find, which has made problem-solving much smoother.
Another high school student recently began openly double-checking her work after each question, catching small errors on her own rather than waiting for hints—something she hesitated to do before.
Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who previously guessed at fractions is now actively reopening her tutoring notebook to check past strategies before attempting new problems, showing more independence in tackling tricky fraction questions.
We have all had the experience of a "bad teacher" and we know it's not pleasant. Often the teacher is simply a bad match for that particular student rather than being a "bad teacher" in general but in either case the student has a serious problem. This is why many parents contact us for a private tutor - their child just can't "get it" when their teacher is teaching.
It's incredible how one explanation results in more confusion whereas another results in that "aha" feeling we all love so much! It is really a matter of getting the "right" tutor and not the "best" one. We see this every day in our work. A tutor might have hundreds of hours of experience and might have received dozens of testimonials from students, however, even such a tutor doesn't click with all students. Every tutor gets bad feedback sometimes. It's all about getting the right fit and this is what we do!
We will organise a 1-on-1 maths tutor in Wakeley to come to your home at a time of your choosing. They will be a local Wakeley maths tutor so scheduling lessons will be easy. Also, no booking fees, no minimum terms, no cancellation costs, no nonsense! And here's the best thing: your first lesson is a trial. So if you feel that the tutor wasn't a good fit, we'll organise someone else. It's our Good Fit Guarantee.
