Year 8 student Emily focused on graphing equations and explored algebraic concepts from her schoolwork, including simplifying and solving linear equations.
In Year 9, Sam worked through factorising quadratic equations and practised graphing parabolas—identifying x- and y-intercepts as well as turning points using plotted examples.
Meanwhile, Year 10 student Daniel revised non-right-angle trigonometry, tackling area of triangles with the sine rule and cosine rule, alongside exam preparation questions covering these advanced topics.
In Year 10 algebra, one student avoided writing out steps for rearranging equations, saying "I can do this in my head," which led to sign errors and confusion when checking work.
In senior maths (Years 11–12), a reluctance to attempt unfamiliar composite or box plot questions was noted—hesitation meant valuable practice with new formats was missed.
For a Year 4 student, not drawing models or recording calculations during area word problems made it harder to spot mistakes, as noted by the tutor: "He needs to organise his ideas on paper."
In each case, important learning moments slipped past unnoticed.
One Bonnyrigg tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to guess when stuck now stops to ask for help, especially with unfamiliar probability questions—she's showing real initiative compared to earlier sessions.
Another high schooler recently began double-checking his algebra steps after losing marks to sign errors; he caught and fixed two mistakes during the lesson without prompting.
In a primary session, a Year 5 student who'd mixed up obtuse and reflex angles before is now reliably identifying both types by thinking about "amount of turn," even teaching back the rule at the end of her session.
