Year 6 Ryan focused on designing a dinner menu for a math assignment, practicing calculations with decimals and applying place value.

In Year 10, one student worked through a payroll assignment by generating reports and graphs and performing real-world financial calculations.

Another Year 11 student explored exponential probability distributions—specifically calculating the mean using integration—and reviewed functions and polynomial long division to strengthen algebra skills.

A Year 11 engineering student relied heavily on school-provided resources instead of building independent problem-solving routines, particularly during assignment prototyping phases—he just needs to find a way of doing all the processes without relying heavily on the resources available at the school.

In a separate Year 9 maths session, one learner's tendency to avoid challenging questions led to less effective revision and slower growth in confidence.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student sometimes struggled with messy handwriting and inconsistent use of capitals when completing sentence work, which made reviewing their own answers difficult and occasionally resulted in overlooked corrections.

A tutor in Doonan noticed a Year 11 student who previously hesitated to ask questions now speaks up when unsure about spelling, which means he's checking his work more actively instead of guessing.

Another high schooler, after struggling with rearranging algebraic equations, recently completed a worksheet independently where she solved for missing variables without prompting—something she'd avoided before.

In a younger session, a Year 5 student who often rushed through writing tasks took the time to add full stops and capitals independently throughout his story draft, not needing reminders from the tutor as he had in past weeks.
