Year 8 student Felix worked on basic algebra, including reviewing powers and starting to solve equations with pro numerals on both sides.

In Year 10, Ava revised index laws in algebra and practiced expanding and simplifying factored algebraic expressions.

Another Year 10 student, Nicole, focused on financial maths by calculating simple interest and understanding tax brackets through real-world examples.

A Year 9 student was observed "guessing answers" during algebra revision, often skipping written working when unsure—this led to repeated confusion in multi-step problems.

For a Year 11 session on trigonometry, incomplete homework and missing textbook resources meant time was lost sourcing materials instead of practicing questions.

A Year 7 student struggled with attention and organisation; being easily distracted resulted in unfinished practice and scattered notes.

One senior student showed reluctance to review incorrect test responses independently, as noted: "Would help to redo successful tests in own time." In these moments, confidence wavered and consolidation stalled.

One Wentworth Falls tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to hesitate with trigonometry now tackles angle and side problems independently, even asking extra questions when unsure instead of staying silent.

Another high schooler recently explained her working out aloud for simultaneous equations—something she'd previously avoided—which made it easier for her to catch mistakes and fix them on the spot.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student has started reviewing her test errors without prompting, then choosing to retry those tricky questions herself until she gets them right.
