Year 8 student Ava focused on expanding and solving equations with brackets in algebra, then reviewed her recent test to target specific errors.

For Year 10 Jack, the lesson centred on understanding stages of meiosis in biology, as well as identifying which syllabus topics needed further revision.

Meanwhile, Year 11 Felix worked through financial maths concepts such as calculating simple and compound interest and converting percentages to decimals, often applying these skills to real-world scenarios.

A Year 10 student repeatedly forgot to apply key formulas in probability and interest problems, which meant time was lost retracing steps rather than consolidating new skills.

In Year 8, a reluctance to show full algebraic working ("she skipped showing steps in simultaneous equations, which hid sign errors," one tutor noted) made it harder to catch mistakes before they became habits.

A Year 5 student's messy layout when telling time with minutes led to confusion between hour and minute hands.

Meanwhile, in Biology (Year 11), missing terminology from previous lessons made cell structure revision more difficult during class discussions.

A tutor in Mount Panorama noticed a big shift with one Year 11 student who, after struggling to recall which trigonometric ratios to use, now completes sine and cosine problems with only minimal help—she even started writing out her reasoning clearly, something she hesitated to do before.

In Year 10 science, another student who used to confuse meiosis and mitosis was able to explain their differences and describe why meiosis matters for genetic variation.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner who found telling time tricky earlier this term surprised everyone by reading the clock accurately and finishing all related questions on her own.
