Year 4 Michael practised writing a short story using his own beach experience and explored key storytelling techniques.

Year 9 worked through algebraic equations and fractions, along with vocabulary development by applying examples in context.

For Year 10, the session focused on quadratic formulae and factorising mathematical expressions, with time spent unpacking a real investigation question involving parabolas.

A Year 8 student arrived without essential materials—no calculator or textbook—which meant time was lost sourcing basics rather than diving into new content.

In Year 11 Maths, "she tends to rely too heavily on a calculator," making it difficult for her to build mental math fluency when solving indices problems.

Another senior student's notes were well-organized but lacked explanations in her own words; this made it harder for her to recall methods during revision.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 learner missed last week's homework and felt unprepared, leading to confusion during algebra exercises.

A tutor in Minyirr recently saw Lux, a high school student, become much more proactive about her learning—she now brings specific questions to sessions and consistently completes homework to a high standard after previously needing reminders.

In another session, Hugh showed real growth by independently identifying the areas he struggled with on his algebra test and asking for targeted help, which marks a shift from waiting for direction.

Meanwhile, Ruby in primary school has started reading aloud with fewer hesitations and greater attention to detail; she now volunteers to interpret passages herself instead of relying on prompts.
