Year 8 student Imran practised solving two-step equations and built confidence with basic algebraic factorising.

In Year 10, Sophie worked on graphing linear equations from worded problems and applied trigonometric ratios to solve for unknown side lengths using right-angled triangles.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Alex focused on understanding the ambiguous case of the Sine Rule and tackled exam-style questions involving transformations of trigonometric graphs.

A Year 8 student tackling linear equations showed a tendency to format working inconsistently—steps were not always aligned, making errors hard to spot in rearrangement problems.

"He sometimes forgot to include units or structure answers line by line," a tutor observed, which slowed checking and review.

In Year 11, a student practicing HSC finance questions often skimmed multi-step prompts without highlighting key details; this led to confusion about what calculations were required for full marks.

A senior student preparing for Networks found it challenging to keep track of all definitions and rules, resulting in hesitation during timed practice questions.

One Jaspers Brush tutor noticed Andrea, a Year 12 student, making a real shift in her approach—after struggling with exam mistakes, she now pinpoints where she went wrong and explains why a new method works better.

Laaibah in Year 11 has started showing all her working for ratio problems rather than skipping steps like before, which is helping her solve trickier questions independently.

In Year 4, Isaak used to get stuck on area and perimeter tasks but can now handle both 2D and 3D shapes with ease; last week he solved every problem on his own without prompting.
