Here’s a quick look at what your child will be diving into in Year 7 Maths:
Number and Algebra:
hey’ll work on understanding integers, fractions, decimals, and percentages. Plus, they’ll explore concepts like ratios, rates, and proportions. It’s also their first taste of algebra—solving simple equations and laying the groundwork for more advanced maths.
Measurement and Geometry:
This includes learning how to calculate the area, volume, and surface area of common shapes, as well as understanding angles and their properties. They’ll also be introduced to things like transformations, symmetry, and coordinate geometry.
Statistics and Probability:
Your child will learn how to collect, represent, and interpret data using graphs and tables. They’ll also explore averages (mean, median, mode, and range) and get hands-on with probability concepts through fun experiments.
All of this builds a strong foundation that gives them confidence to tackle tougher maths in the years ahead!

How does tutoring actually work?
Need to cancel or switch up your lesson? No worries, life happens! Here’s what you need to know to make it easy on everyone (including yourself).
Step 1: Cancel or reschedule early
If you know ahead of time that you can’t make it, try to cancel or reschedule at least 24 hours before your lesson. It’s free to do, and it gives everyone a heads-up (plus, you won’t lose that lesson credit).
Step 2: Why the 24-hour rule?
Here’s the deal—if you cancel late, the tutor still gets paid. They set aside that time for you, so fair’s fair, right? On the flip side, tutors might also need to reschedule sometimes. They could be sick or slammed with exams—it happens! We just ask that you stay flexible and work together to find a new time.
Step 3: If it’s last-minute
Cancel after the 24-hour mark? Heads up, you’ll need to pay full price for the missed class. Harsh, we know—so just try to plan ahead when you can.
Step 4: Don’t waste that lesson credit
Make sure to use all your lessons before your subscription renews! If not, those unused credits will disappear faster than your favourite snack.
That’s it—just be cool about it, and you’ll avoid any hassle. Got questions? Hit up the support team. They’re ready to help!
What if I’m not great at asking questions in class?
We get it—life happens, and sometimes you miss a lesson. No need to freak out, but here’s what you should know and what you can do next.
Step 1: Reach out
First, hit up the tutor support team ASAP. They want to know you’re okay—not lost at sea or in need of an SOS. Better safe than sorry, right?
Step 2: The rules of missing a lesson
Missed lessons can’t be rescheduled, unfortunately. If you want to book another class for the same day or week, you’ll need to use one of your lesson credits.
Step 3: Questions? We got you
If you’re confused or have something on your mind about missed lessons, don’t sweat it. The support team is always there to help clear things up!
Missing a lesson isn’t the end of the world. Just follow these steps, and you’ll be back on track in no time!
Can this help me prepare for exams?
Okay, so your tutor ghosted you for a lesson—ugh, we get it, that’s super annoying. Your time is important, and that’s not cool. But don’t worry, here’s what you can do to handle it like a pro.
Step 1: Chill for 15-20 minutes
Sometimes stuff happens. Your tutor might be stuck in traffic or dealing with a last-minute emergency. Give them 15-20 minutes to show up before you start panicking.
Step 2: Hit up the support team
If they’re still a no-show, it’s time to contact the tutoring support team. They’re there to help you figure things out and make sure you don’t lose out on your lesson.
Step 3: Reschedule like a boss
Tutors know how important sticking to a schedule is, so most of them will work with you to find a new time that works. Reach out and get things set up so you can get back to learning ASAP.
And remember, things happen! The key here is to stay calm and use these steps to take control of the situation. You got this!
Can I choose when to have my sessions?
What’s the deal with daylight saving time (DST)?
Okay, so here’s the lowdown on DST—it’s that “spring forward, fall back” thing you might’ve heard of. Basically, it’s a way to make better use of daylight depending on the time of year.
How it works
Southern Hemisphere (where we are): Clocks go back 1 hour in spring and forward 1 hour in fall.
The idea? It stays lighter later in the evening, so you get more daylight to do stuff (and maybe save some energy too).
What this means for your lessons
Since your tutor might live in a different country, DST can mess with the time difference between you two. But don’t stress—our scheduling software is all over it. It adjusts automatically, so your lesson times always show up right.
If you don’t get any emails or messages about changes from us or your tutor, your lessons will happen at the same time as always. Easy peasy!
Overlapping lessons? Here’s the fix
Your tutor could have other students in different time zones. When DST kicks in, their lesson slots might shift, and that could overlap with your time.
No worries, though! If we spot any clashes in the schedule, we’ll shoot you an email ASAP. That way, you can sort it out with your tutor and reschedule if needed.
The bottom line
DST might sound a little confusing, but we’ve got it covered. Just keep an eye on your inbox for updates, and you’ll be good to go!
Will I see progress quickly?
Why report it?
Telling us about the issue helps the tutor support team figure out what went wrong and how to fix it. Plus, it means you’ll get solutions faster—whether that’s a tech fix or rescheduling a new lesson.
How to report a problem
Just hit up the tutor support team and spill the details about what happened. The more info, the better! Once we know the situation, we’ll jump in to help or set up a makeup lesson if needed.
Bottom line
Don’t stress—problems happen sometimes, and we’re here to make things right. Reach out to support, and we’ll handle the rest!
