Year 5 student Zac worked on multiplying fractions by integers and converting between improper fractions, mixed numbers, and decimals, with a focus on simplifying each result.

For Year 8, Olivia practiced using trigonometry to find unknown sides in right-angled triangles and applied the Pythagorean theorem to homework problems involving SOHCAHTOA.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Jack completed questions on rearranging formulas to change the subject and substituted values into equations as part of his algebra revision.

In Year 8, a student left both notes and their school workbook at school before a key revision session; "he didn't have any guidelines for revision," which made it difficult to prepare for an exam.

Another senior student relied on memory rather than writing out working during trigonometry problems—leading to confusion when rearranging SOHCAHTOA equations.

For a Year 10 topic on tax calculations, incomplete home practice meant terms like "tax deductible" and net salary were still unclear.

In primary years, clockwork concepts required daily recap at home, as gaps resurfaced when applying these skills in new contexts.

A tutor in Daleys Point noticed a big shift with one Year 9 student who, after weeks of hesitating to ask for help, finally requested extra homework and even admitted when he was stuck—something he'd never done before.

Another high schooler started using his calculator efficiently and now recognises complex graphs on his own, a clear leap from last term's confusion.

In primary, a younger student tackled currency problems far better than before by drawing diagrams and independently applying addition strategies from the previous lesson.

Last week, that same student solved all her money questions without needing prompts.
