Year 11 student Olivia worked through quadratic equations and then moved to chemistry, focusing on writing ionic compounds and naming covalent compounds.

In Year 9, Daniel tackled basics of trigonometry including Pythagoras' theorem, finding side lengths, and calculating angles in triangles using step-by-step examples.

For a Year 6 lesson, Sophie practised converting decimals to fractions and back again, along with basic division strategies for accuracy.

A Year 8 student repeatedly left homework unfinished, with a tutor noting, "She could not finish her assigned Homework again," which led to gaps in graphing and coordinate work.

In Year 10 science, one student struggled to find the latest assessment file during a session; this slowed feedback on his experiment write-up.

Another senior English student showed confusion linking body paragraphs back to her thesis, making arguments feel disconnected—her draft lacked cohesion between ideas.

A Year 7 student skipped opening her online textbook at the start of a maths lesson, losing valuable time before tackling word problems together.

One Picnic Bay tutor noticed that Eve, a high school student, had previously struggled to pinpoint her mistakes in maths assessments but recently started recognising exactly where she went wrong after reviewing two textbook exercises—she now corrects errors on her own.

Jacinta, also in high school, used to wait for prompts but has begun arriving with drafts and teacher feedback already prepared for her English assignments; she revised her essay draft based on suggestions before the lesson even began.

Meanwhile, Lauren in Year 7 showed new initiative by asking clarifying questions when stuck and completed Pythagorean theorem problems independently during her first tutoring session.
