So far our experience has been very good. My son is already improving after 5 weeksMelinda
Year 6 Scarlett focused on improving sentence structure by working with independent and dependent clauses, as well as editing a memoir piece inspired by her class novel.
Year 12 Aimee tackled advanced Chemistry skills, revising stoichiometry calculations such as mole-mass conversions and consolidating knowledge of organic compound naming through practice questions.
Meanwhile, Year 12 Charli strengthened her Biology understanding by reviewing immune system topics—including both innate and adaptive responses—using targeted multiple choice and short answer exam questions.
In Year 10 Chemistry, Aimee sometimes became overwhelmed by multi-step questions and tended to overcomplicate answers instead of breaking them into manageable parts. As a tutor noted, "she needs to slow down and apply equations step-by-step."
In Year 7 English, Scarlett often hesitated to write unless she felt her ideas were perfect—this meant drafts took longer and her thoughts remained unfinished on the page.
During biology revision for Year 12, Charli's notes lacked key terminology, which limited her confidence when answering complex SAC questions.
For Cameron in Year 8 English, rushing led to overlooked punctuation errors that persisted into final drafts.
One Roches Beach tutor noticed a big shift in Aimee's approach to Chemistry: after struggling with complex equilibrium questions, she now routinely asks for clarification the moment something doesn't make sense, and recently applied a systematic method to correctly solve a problem she'd previously missed.
Charli, another high school student, has started actively identifying her weaker areas during sessions—last week she highlighted specific Biology topics for extra focus and demonstrated improved understanding when given real-world examples.
Meanwhile, Cameron (Year 7) independently drafted a creative story and welcomed feedback on grammar, showing more openness to revising his own writing than in earlier sessions.
