Year 12 student worked through Engineering exam content, tackling bending moments and complex problems, breaking down a folio with truss calculations, and exploring circuit theory alongside nuclear physics.

For Year 11, focus was on exponential probability distributions including mean calculation using integrals, as well as functions and polynomial long division.

Meanwhile, Year 6 Ryan developed percentage and ratio skills while applying place value concepts to numbers with decimals during a real-world party menu assignment.

A Year 11 engineering student struggled to move beyond school-provided resources when developing assignment ideas and sketches; "he just needs to find a way of doing all the processes without relying heavily on the resources available at the school."

In senior maths, one student's time management meant sessions were cut short, leaving coverage incomplete.

For Year 7–8 maths, neatness and layout became obstacles: messy working in index laws and surface area calculations led to confusion during multi-step questions.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner avoided reviewing videos for distance education tasks, making it harder to tackle division problems independently.

One Sunshine Beach tutor recently saw a Year 11 student who had been hesitant to speak up now actively asking for help when he hit tricky algebra steps, instead of guessing or staying silent.

In a Year 9 session, a student who usually waited for prompts surprised the tutor by finishing her assignment draft independently and checking it over for spelling errors on her own.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner—who previously needed constant reminders—wrote every sentence with correct punctuation throughout his story without being prompted.
