Year 4, Zoe practised calculating perimeter and also worked through basic counting exercises.

For Year 10, Tom focused on fractions and consolidating operations with different denominators.

In Year 11 Advanced Maths, Grace tackled trigonometric functions including reciprocal functions and learned to sketch their graphs by hand.

Several students in Years 3–6 were set multiplication homework but did not show written working in their books, making it difficult to spot where confusion arose; as one tutor noted, "no working out was in her book."

In a Year 10 maths lesson, a student became confused by multi-step trigonometry questions—struggling most when the question wording was complex or required combining sequences.

At senior level, missed homework ("homework from previous week had not been done") meant progress stalled and extra time was needed to revisit old ground rather than moving forward with new material.

A tutor in Old Toongabbie noticed one high school student steadily grew more independent during exam revision—by the end, she could select and apply integration strategies on her own, something she'd hesitated with just a week earlier.

Another Year 10 student began double-checking his working after past test mistakes; last session, he corrected errors himself instead of waiting for hints.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student who previously left homework unfinished surprised her tutor by completing every task ahead of time and arriving eager to share what she'd learned about grouping numbers.
