Hadia taught Jasmine 5 months ago
Hadia tutored Jasmine and Laetitia on quadratic equations, projectile motion problems, and various concepts related to functions and graphs. Laetitia practiced applying the Pythagorean theorem, distance and midpoint formulas, and identifying symmetry in equations. They also covered the equation of a circle and different forms of linear equations, including slope-intercept and point-slope forms, with plans to continue the lesson in the next session.
Symmetry of Graphs
X and Y Intercepts
Point-Slope Form
Slope-Intercept Form
Slope of a Line
Pythagorean Theorem
Midpoint Formula
Distance Formula
Chehak taught Syl 5 months ago
Chehak and Arianna practiced calculating volumes and surface areas of various 3D shapes, including prisms, pyramids, cylinders, cones, hemispheres, and spheres, in preparation for Arianna's test. They worked through several problems, focusing on applying the correct formulas and avoiding calculation errors. Arianna is taking Algebra 2 next year and will update Chehak on how the test went.
Volume of a Rectangular Prism
Volume of a Pyramid
Volume of a Sphere
Volume of a Hemisphere

Cylinder Volume
Nikita taught Anushka 5 months ago
Nikita tutored Anushka on the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, chain rule, and u-substitution, working through several problems from Anushka's sheet. They discussed how to apply the theorem in different scenarios, including when the limits of integration are variables or composite functions. Anushka has an exam tomorrow, and they scheduled a follow-up session next weekend to continue with other topics.
Increasing/Decreasing Functions
Chain Rule with FTC
Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (Part 1)
Adjusting Limits of Integration
Nikita taught Anushka 6 months ago
Nikita tutored Anushka on calculating determinants of matrices, including using cofactor expansion and row/column operations. They worked through examples of 3x3 and 4x4 matrices and discussed properties of determinants, including triangular matrices and the relationship to matrix invertibility. They completed the determinant worksheet, and they scheduled the next session to cover inverses.
Determinants of 1x1 Matrices
Determinants of 2x2 Matrices
Minors and Cofactors
Determinant Expansion
Transpose Determinant Property
Scalar Multiplication and Determinants
Row/Column Swapping
Row/Column Operations
Zay taught Laura 6 months ago
Zay Lin Aung and Viviana Perez reviewed polynomials, including finding intercepts, multiplicity, end behavior, graphing, polynomial long division, and an introduction to the Rational Zero Theorem and Remainder Theorem. Due to time constraints, the application of the Rational Zero Theorem and Remainder Theorem was demonstrated but not fully completed.
End Behavior of Polynomials
Polynomials
Rational Zero Theorem
Polynomial Division
Multiplicity
X and Y Intercepts
Quick tips to help students boost their maths skills in Perth
Start with the basics and keep building
In primary school across Perth suburbs like Canning Vale, Joondalup, and Morley, strong number sense is key. Students who master times tables, place value, and simple fractions early have a much easier time as topics become more complex.
Tip: Use five-minute flashcard drills or apps like Maths Online to keep number facts fresh
Tip: When working with word problems, underline key terms and circle the numbers. It helps visualise what’s being asked
Tip: Don't move on if the basics feel shaky. Repeating foundational work builds long-term confidence
Even in high school, students often struggle because they’ve rushed past earlier topics. Always go back to fill the gaps.
Make revision part of the weekly routine
In Year 7 to 10, topics build quickly. Algebra, geometry, percentages, and equations all become part of everyday lessons in WA schools. Students at schools in areas like Subiaco or Baldivis often feel the jump when starting a new term.
Tip: Set aside 20 minutes twice a week for maths revision, even when there’s no test
Tip: Break topics into chunks. One night for equations, one for geometry
Tip: Try explaining a topic out loud as if teaching it. If you can teach it, you probably understand it
Short, regular sessions help reduce stress and improve retention more than last-minute cramming.
Use the right tools at the right time
By Years 11 and 12, WA students studying Mathematics Applications, Methods, or Specialist Maths need to apply content quickly and accurately. The pressure of ATAR exams makes exam technique just as important as topic knowledge.
Tip: Time yourself when doing past papers from SCSA. Practice under timed conditions
Tip: Highlight verbs in questions like solve, show, or explain to avoid misreading
Tip: Use calculators efficiently. Know which functions speed up working and which slow you down
Tip: Review every mistake. Ask yourself: Did I not know it, or did I rush it?
Whether you're preparing for ATAR exams in Perth or brushing up on core skills, consistent effort and small improvements each week make a big difference.
