- Don't wait until the last minute

If a task becomes overdue:
- Don't panic — you can still complete it
- Finish it as soon as possible
- Message your tutor if you need an extension
- Learn from it and plan better next time
Getting Help
If You're Stuck
- Re-read the task description carefully
- Check any related notes from your last session
- Message your tutor with specific questions
- Discuss it at the start of your next session
Requesting an Extension
If you can't complete a task on time:
- Message your tutor before the due date
- Explain why you need more time

It's always better to communicate than to just let tasks go overdue.
