Standard Julianna was excellent last year, and she got Emma back on track with her maths. She participated in ICAS and did really well.Rachel
Year 4 student Eliz worked on double-digit multiplication, long division, and was introduced to the concepts of HCF and LCM in maths, while also practising descriptive essay writing and expanding vocabulary in English.
Year 9 student Amber focused on algebraic equations involving negative numbers as well as quadratic expressions, including their introduction and review.
For Year 12, Marcus tackled advanced calculus skills such as differentiating with the chain rule and quotient rule, finding tangents and normals to curves, and anti-differentiation for areas under curves using integration.
A Year 7 student often forgot to bring her calculator and school books, which meant she couldn't always show progress on Pythagoras and trigonometry in sessions—"I haven't got my book again," she said, so practice was sometimes limited to what could be remembered.
In VCE Maths Methods, one student relied heavily on mental calculations even when a calculator was allowed, slowing down problem-solving with surds and Pythagoras.
A Year 3 learner hesitated during basic addition due to doubts about multiplication tables; this made it hard for her to move confidently into division tasks or keep up speed in classwork.
A Whittington tutor recently saw a Year 12 student become much more methodical with multiple-choice exam questions—she now carefully eliminates options using her knowledge of gradients and stationary points, rather than guessing as she used to.
In Year 10, another student who previously needed step-by-step help tackled simultaneous equations independently, applying the point of intersection technique confidently for the first time.
Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who once hesitated before answering maths problems is now noticeably quicker and applies tips straight away; last session, she finished all her subtraction questions without pausing for reassurance.
