Due to popularity of the class, we have to shift our class times around (apologies!). Please refer to the new class times above. To ensure we can deliver the materials to yourself, please enrol by Thursday 10/04 :)

Year 11s and 12s! We know the Easter break is coming up and what better way to spend it together with a deep dive into our favourite topics (or soon to be). This is not a crash course. We spare no details and intend to cover advanced techniques like insertion, stars and bars, pigeonhole...

Spots are filling up - we can take at most 2 more students for our Yr 11 Saturday class. If you are thinking about enrolling, this is a good week since we are about to start Further Trigonometry and 3D Trigonometry.

Year 11s! We are just about to start our trigonometry topics. Give us a call at 02 9059 8263 or give us a DM if you have any questions.

Year 11s - we are starting our second topic Inverse Functions this week. If you missed out on Functions, our lessons are recorded so you review it at anytime at home, on the train (or during your English class :)). Year 12s - Extension 1 is starting the calculus topics (Differentiation, Maximum...

Enrolments for Year 11 Extension 1 is now open! First topic will be Functions. Give us a DM if you have any questions.

Don't stress it - tutoring shouldn't be mandatory for every subject (despite what other people/tutors say). Year 11 should be a year for you to explore different options and try out new places before settling down for the home stretch. I would attend a few free trials that places are running and...

I was the specialist tutor for one of the places mentioned before I started our own. During my days as a student, they used to run exit exams where below a certain mark, you'd get kicked out. I can assure you now that its very much toned down. If you enjoy the small class environment, come give...

We are running four classes now - spots are filling up as we speak. Here's what the classes are doing this week. Year 12 Extension 1 - Further trigonometry Year 12 Extension 2 - Complex numbers / Proofs Common question we get asked is do we cover Advanced in our Extension 1 course and the...

I have taught at one for 8 years and interviewed for the other. I can confidently say even though the teachers at Ngo and Sons may not have the same credentials as those advertised at Matrix, they have trained to a very high standard. Ngo and Sons emphasises rules and technique over everything...

Chris is right, its not about your marks as much as your ability to explain questions to students. I have sat on both sides of the hiring board for new tutors. I have seen some really smart students struggle to simplify simple questions and I have also seen aspiring teachers tackle projectile...

Definitely, you'll need to be comfortable (if not very good) at the concepts in 2U. Think of integration in 2U and then doing a harder version in 4U.

When I did the HSC, I used to do a Sydney Grammar and James Ruse quite a bit. Otherwise, HSC from earlier years (pre new syllabus) have some good questions that are still relevant today.

For HSC chemistry, give Sigma Science a try! Chris is very knowledgable and I personally went to his classes when I was a student long time ago. For 4U maths, come give us a try : ) We've each been teaching for 8 years and our classes are capped at 8 students. Give us a ring at 02 9059 8263 and...

Keep practicing past papers and when that gets too easy, try to do them under exam conditions. You can do it!
