Tutor is going really great. My son improved a lot in division just after the 2nd week. And Lidya, she's fantastic. I would highly recommend it to any of my friends who needs a tutor for their child.Katherine
Year 7 student Alexia worked on multiplying and dividing algebraic expressions as well as simplifying these equations using worksheets in preparation for an upcoming test.
For Year 9, Ethan practised classifying like terms and interpreting frequency tables alongside constructing dot plots and histograms to strengthen his statistics skills.
Meanwhile, Year 10 student Mia focused on quadratic equations—both simplifying them and solving related problems—while also tackling simultaneous equations during her session.
In Year 10 algebra, one student did not bring the previous two test papers to tutoring—this slowed feedback on their exam strategies and meant "I gave her already" extra copies instead of focusing on new material.
For a senior student working on proofs, the tutor noted over-reliance on written notes rather than attempting problems unaided, which made efficient recall difficult under timed conditions.
Meanwhile, in a Year 8 session on fractions, homework was set but completion is still unconfirmed for next week; practice outside lessons is essential for consolidating these skills before moving onto mixed-number operations.
A Lapstone tutor recently noticed a big change in a Year 11 student who, after previously hesitating with expanding and simplifying algebraic expressions, now tackles bracket expansions on his own and checks his work for accuracy.
In Year 9, another student who used to overthink percentage problems has started working through multi-step calculations without pausing to double-check every answer—she's trusting her process more each week.
Meanwhile, a younger primary student showed new independence by recalling and applying last session's lesson on fractions without any hints, then finished the set of fraction word problems entirely solo.
