Year 5 student Scarlett focused on identifying Greek and Latin roots in words, using them in context, and practiced editing sentences for correct use of prefixes and suffixes.
In Year 12 Chemistry, Aimee tackled mole-mass and mass-mole conversions within stoichiometry questions and revised organic chemistry concepts ahead of an upcoming SAC by reviewing practice exam responses.
Charli, also in Year 12, consolidated her understanding of the adaptive immune system by answering targeted exam-style questions and reviewed the principles of CRISPR-Cas9 gene technology through guided revision activities.
A Year 10 student working on chemistry repeatedly avoided writing out full calculations, which led to missing units and errors—"I advised her to essentially spell out her workings so she can avoid mistakes."
Meanwhile, a Year 8 English student hesitated to start personal writing tasks, doubting her own ideas; this meant the task stalled until encouragement was given.
In VCE Biology, one student only practiced familiar material for revision and didn't regularly attempt challenging past exam questions. This pattern resulted in limited confidence when unfamiliar content appeared during assessments.
A tutor in Mount Rumney recently noticed Aimee, a high school student, making real strides in Chemistry—she independently tackled equilibrium questions she'd struggled with before and openly flagged topics for extra focus instead of guessing.
Charli, also in high school, has started drawing diagrams from memory to test her grasp of biology concepts without relying on notes, a big step up from her previous approach.
Meanwhile, Cameron (Year 7) showed new independence by drafting creative writing pieces and then accepting feedback to improve punctuation, even bringing work from home to apply session learnings directly.
