Year 5 student Layla worked on converting between fractions and decimals as well as double-digit multiplication, using hands-on practice with examples.

For Year 9, Sophia focused on simplifying index laws and evaluating integers through targeted revision of recent test material.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Will tackled simultaneous equations using both substitution and elimination methods, along with review of linear equations in preparation for upcoming assessments.

A Year 9 student forgot to bring required materials and lost a previous homework sheet, leading to an entire lesson spent redoing missed work instead of progressing—"we had to spend the session catching up on last week's assignment."

In Year 7 maths, messy written layout and unclear setting out in pattern recognition tasks made it harder for the student to spot errors or review methods.

A senior student working on trigonometry assignments struggled with time management and did not complete assigned homework, which delayed feedback cycles. Missing these steps meant less time for new concepts and dented confidence during class discussions.

One Ellis Beach tutor noticed a high school student who previously needed prompting for each step in assignment work now comes to sessions with her own questions and is working through tasks more independently.

Another high school learner, Eve, realised her mistakes from a recent test after reviewing problems together—she then managed to finish all related homework without needing extra help.

Meanwhile, a younger student showed a real shift in focus; where he used to lose concentration mid-task, he was able to complete an entire set of subtraction questions with only occasional assistance.
