Year 11 student Rani focused on DNA manipulation techniques, including the use of polymerases and PCR, and practiced interpreting gel electrophoresis results to identify carriers of mutant alleles.

In Year 10, Chloe worked through algebraic skills such as expanding binomial products—including (a+b)^2 and (a-b)(a+b)—and rationalising denominators using conjugates.

Meanwhile, Year 7 student Ada revised how to express numbers in index notation and found prime factors using factor trees, then moved on to understanding perfect squares, cubes, and their roots.

A Year 12 Biology student repeatedly hesitated to answer exam-style questions, especially when asked to connect concepts like DNA replication or the link between innate and adaptive immunity; as one tutor observed, "he struggled to use correct terminology without prompting."

In Year 10 Mathematics, a student often left homework incomplete and arrived at sessions without required materials, which meant less time for addressing weak areas like factorising quadratics.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 learner regularly attempted calculations in her head rather than showing steps on paper—when prompted for reasoning during percentage problems, she faltered and sought reassurance before continuing.

A tutor in Coimadai recently saw a Year 11 student who used to avoid asking questions now actively pausing lessons to clarify points and finishing her quiz attempts much faster than before—last week, she improved her score from 8/14 to 12/17.

A Year 7 student, after struggling with factoring algebraic expressions, surprised her tutor by independently expanding binomial equations and explaining each step without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner who often skipped words when reading is now sounding out tricky words herself and only needs help if she loses her place; last session, she read an entire page aloud on her own.
