Starting Point
Mackenzie began his Eye Level journey with a clear goal: to excel in both maths and English and to be fully prepared for selective school tests. At just six years old, he was eager to challenge himself academically, focusing on advanced concepts in both subjects to keep ahead of his schoolwork.
The Eye Level Approach
Attending advanced maths and English classes, Mackenzie worked on mastering multiplication of fractions and decimals, developing problem-solving skills through eight different strategies, and honing pattern recognition and data analysis. In English, he tackled comprehension exercises, expanding his vocabulary and writing skills while exploring topics like the Earth’s hemispheres.
Through weekly sessions, Mackenzie’s work at Eye Level consistently stayed ahead of his school curriculum. This early exposure to advanced concepts gave him confidence and a deeper understanding, making his school homework more manageable and preparing him to excel under test conditions.
