Year 9 student Sarah focused on strengthening her algebra skills, including solving equations and simplifying expressions.

For Year 7, Tyler worked through his maths booklet with targeted practice on adding and subtracting decimals, as well as rounding numbers and handling fraction operations.

In Year 10, Emily tackled simultaneous equations and learned how to change the subject of an equation, using step-by-step breakdowns for clarity.

A Year 10 student showed reluctance to attempt "wordy" algebra problems, skipping those that looked difficult and instead relying on formula sheets—her tutor noted, "she tends to avoid the questions that don't look manageable."

In senior financial maths, another student entered numbers into formulas without understanding their meaning, which left her stuck when questions changed format.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student's messy workbook made it hard for him to review mistakes or see patterns in his working.

In Extension Maths, one student rushed through test problems and rarely back-checked answers; missing small errors cost him marks he otherwise understood.

One Williamtown tutor noted Danika's shift from hesitation to independence—she now comes prepared with questions from class, tackles most problems solo, and recently hit a personal best by solving 60 times tables in 100 seconds (up from under 40).

In senior maths, Liz moved from doubting her financial maths skills to actively teaching the tutor why certain z-score solutions worked, even clarifying points they were unsure about.

Meanwhile, Elliott has become noticeably more vocal in sessions; where he once waited for direction, he now explains his reasoning out loud and challenges different problem-solving methods on his own.
