Year 8 student Daniel worked on linear equations with negative numbers and fractions, interpreting points on a Cartesian plane, and practiced finding perimeters and converting square units.
For Year 9, Cailyn focused on dividing and subtracting fractions before moving to algebraic substitutions involving like terms and decimal numbers.
Meanwhile, Year 11 student Nicholas tackled trigonometry with unknown sides in denominators using SOHCAHTOA, alongside discussing film techniques for English analysis.
Several students across Years 3–12 showed process challenges impacting progress.
In Year 8 algebra, one student had trouble recalling the algebra covered during the last session, with homework left incomplete, which led to repeated explanations of dividing fractions and reciprocals.
A Year 10 student working on trigonometry struggled to set out her working clearly; inconsistent formatting meant errors went unnoticed, especially with negative signs.
For HSC English, another found it difficult to plan arguments holistically—his topic sentences often mismatched examples given, requiring on-the-spot restructuring.
When calculator input was needed in Year 9 maths, entering values out of order flipped expected answers and created confusion mid-solution.
One Koonawarra tutor recently noticed a big shift in Daniel's approach to maths—where he once hesitated, he now redoes questions on tax instalments until he's sure of his process, showing genuine self-motivation.
In Year 12 English, Nicholas has moved beyond just listing character traits; he's begun structuring essays by carefully selecting which characters to focus on and organising his thoughts in a way that matches his own thinking style.
Meanwhile, Ariana in primary school used to stumble over her times tables but now uses multiplication tricks from flashcards independently and even started division without prompting.
