Year 5 student Chloe worked on breaking numbers into tens and ones as well as practising addition and subtraction using real-life examples.
In Year 10, Jamie focused on revising financial mathematics, particularly interest calculations, and also reviewed the basics of simultaneous equations and inequalities from class.
Meanwhile, Year 12 student Alex tackled HSC Business Studies topics including marketing influences—such as psychological and sociocultural factors affecting customer choice—and completed revision of marketing processes with exam-style practice questions.
In Year 11 Business Studies, one student often left note revision and exam practice until the last minute, leading to "bottlenecking" before trials—this meant re-learning content instead of refining responses.
A tutor observed that skipping regular review sessions caused connections between syllabus concepts to be missed, limiting depth in written reports.

In both cases, organization and consistent process directly shaped outcomes.
One Pitt Town Bottoms tutor recently saw a Year 11 student who, after weeks of hesitation, started actively pinpointing his weaker topics and steering the session toward those gaps—a big shift from earlier lessons where he waited for direction.

In a primary lesson, Sannae used chunking strategies to sound out longer words independently, instead of waiting for help with tricky reading passages.
