Year 5 student Daniel focused on advanced times tables and practiced applying area and perimeter skills, then explored how percentages relate to discounts in everyday scenarios.

In Year 8, Chloe worked through algebraic thinking with a focus on using coordinates and interpreting scale on maps, as well as reviewing equivalent fractions using diagrams for clarity.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Tahlia concentrated on angle relationships within triangles and lines, then applied fraction operations including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division to problem-solving questions.

In Year 8 maths, one student hesitated to complete set homework independently—"she understood the assignment when we sat down together but didn't attempt it at home"—which slowed her recall of times tables and made in-class practice less effective.

A senior English student showed strong ideas but struggled to communicate them clearly on paper; "her language was a little too wordy," as noted after an essay draft, leading to sentences that lost impact.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 maths student relied heavily on notes for fraction work, missing connections between changing denominators and numerators during simplification.

A Yellingbo tutoring session saw one high school student, Lizzie, shift from simply recalling text details to generating her own nuanced arguments about persuasive techniques—she even started questioning and improving her topic sentences without prompting.

Another secondary student tackled fraction-to-decimal conversions: after initially hesitating, Ella managed to work through long division of fractions and spot recurring decimals on her own.

Meanwhile, a primary student who used to avoid tricky words now sounds them out before asking for help; last week she finished reading a challenging poem aloud with only two quick pauses for correction.
