Year 6 student Elise focused on multiplying fractions and converting mixed numbers, then practiced reading comprehension using short passages.

Year 10 student Amelie worked through quadratic equations, including finding roots and using the discriminant, before reviewing key concepts for her upcoming test.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Michael tackled algebraic expressions and equations as well as vocabulary exercises, addressing any areas he found challenging in recent classwork.

In Year 6 English, one student repeatedly arrived at sessions with unfinished homework, resulting in lesson time spent catching up rather than moving forward—"we too often lose a lot of time during the lesson finishing work that should have already been completed."

For a Year 10 Maths student, written calculations were often unclear and scattered across the page; as noted, "both of us struggled to understand it," which made revision much harder.

Meanwhile, a senior student's tendency to use calculators early and provide answers in incorrect formats cost marks on recent assessments.

Confidence wavered after setbacks in algebra proofs—hesitation slowed progress and led to repeated checking instead of learning new content.

During a Coonawarra tutoring session, Amelie independently corrected her maths test mistakes for the first time, demonstrating new self-reliance.

Elise has made progress by outlining every step of multi-step solutions aloud, overcoming previous hesitation to engage with tricky problems.

Michael in Year 5 expanded his short story on his own initiative, moving beyond reliance on tutor support.

Last week, Amelie finished plotting hyperbolas unaided, having previously needed significant guidance for this challenge just two weeks earlier.
