Would bet the only piece Sarah is missing is learning to use as much of her own energy as possible to cast in order to start training her personal level instead of leaning on the background magic, and Kevin can explain that/has made Tedd aware that that is a thing you can do to incorporate into their own experiments.
Yeah, but that's not Pandora helping her Awaken, and Vows inflict a cripplin barrage of intrusive thoughts if you don't fulfill them.

She needs to help Sarah Awaken or she's going to be regularly hit with that and if Sarah awakens without Pandora then it'll become impossible for Pandora to resolve the Vow.

Of particular concern is that later in the scene, Pandora basically says that she considered her vow to encompass training Sarah as an apprentice, which she might not be able to do because she might not remember what sh was going to teach her and, as demonstrated by Mr. Verres and Voltaire, the interpretation of the Immortal matters more than the wording regarding the Vow.
