THE BIG PICTURE

What you’ll learn.

Key areas we can work through together, matched to your school’s program and current level.

Number

Rational numbers, index laws, ratios and rates. Compare quantities and recognise efficient calculation methods.

Algebra

Simplifying expressions, equations and linear graphs. Connect the algebra on the page with the relationship on a graph.

Measurement

Circles, prisms and unit conversions. Break a measurement problem into manageable steps.

Space

Congruence and geometric reasoning. Explain how you know shapes or angles are related.

Statistics

Sampling, outliers and comparing data. Consider whether a sample supports a sensible conclusion.

Probability

Events, Venn diagrams and two-way tables. Organise information before calculating a probability.

BEYOND THE ANSWER

Skills we’ll build.

Our tutoring focus: understanding the idea, practising with purpose, and becoming more independent.

Choose an approach before starting a calculation.
Connect equations, tables and graphs.
Explain reasoning and learn from recurring mistakes.
