Science guides to help you get ahead
Science guides to help you get ahead
Many advanced students feel unchallenged at school. Our acceleration pathway keeps curiosity alive and learning stimulating by helping students move up to 12 months ahead with structured teacher guidance.
Students prepare for HSC Extension 1 a year early and develop deep understanding through guided lessons and expert feedback. This builds confidence without unnecessary pressure.
In small, selective classes, your child learns with motivated peers who share the same curiosity and goals. This environment helps students stay confident and accountable.
Matrix teachers are subject specialists who make advanced concepts clear. They guide students through acceleration at a balanced and sustainable pace that promotes long-term learning.
Each term builds on the last to ensure strong foundations and readiness for advanced study. Students progress confidently because their learning is planned and purposeful.
With over two decades of experience supporting advanced learners, Matrix helps students accelerate safely and approach the HSC with confidence.

Matrix was honestly one of the best tutoring places I have ever been to. It was only through the experienced tutors and their brilliant guidance I was able to achieve Band 6’s in all my subjects and achieve a 99+ ATAR. I thank you Matrix and I cannot be anymore grateful.
Matrix Education has been my go-to tutoring place since the end of Year 10. It has given me peace of mind during term time as I am supported by a professional, passionate team of teachers and tutors.
I really appreciate the dedication of all my tutors in ensuring that each lesson we get as much done as possible. Matrix has provided me with a quality learning experience.
Studying at the Matrix Campus is actually fun and easy due to approachable staff and teachers. The textbooks/theory books they provide are top quality in design but also content. Learning at Matrix has been super enjoyable and I would recommend it to other people.
Matrix courses are incredibly well structured and makes keeping track of one’s progress very easy. The teachers and staff are all helpful and vastly knowledgeable. Oh, and they’re all lovely people who truly understand the challenges we face as students!
The teachers and workshop tutors answered every one of my questions, ensuring that I understood every concept explored and that I adopted the right study techniques for me to excel.
I highly recommend the Matrix Science course as I found this course to be very in depth and detailed, covering all aspects of the syllabus schools cover during the term.
My son attended the Matrix Year 11 Chemistry course and by all reports it was a great idea to do this. The quality of the instruction and texts made available to him were very helpful and have given him a real head start for the year. He will no doubt be doing more Matrix courses in the future.
Matrix provides the conducive learning environment that inspires students to achieve their personal bests. The option of Accelerated Holiday Courses and the online Matrix+ empower students with flexibility during the term.
Matrix is an amazing tutoring centre to attend. The learning environment helped me improve my marks and understand concepts better. The workbooks are of good quality and explain concepts well.
My son showed a huge improvement in his studies and over the past three years. I have seen him getting more confident. I have now enrolled my second child for Year 10.
My son enjoys learning at Matrix. We tried several online tutoring programs and none worked. Matrix is different, it provides you the textbook and online classes that you can use to help your child. I would highly recommend Matrix.
With Matrix+ I have continued to receive a highly in-depth understanding of all my school subjects, in a succinct form. The content was delivered in a video-format by a highly qualified Matrix teacher, who made otherwise complex information easier to tackle.
Matrix is a great learning environment, with the perfect facility to study and expand your knowledge of so many subjects. They’ve aided me greatly in understanding difficult content, which has improved my marks in school drastically.
The Matrix+ online program is excellent value – the resources and workbooks are shipped to your house, the video resources are of exceptional quality and you can get help whenever you need from the tutors online. A great tutoring provider all round, the staff are so friendly and adaptable and work so hard to ensure their students get the best education experience they can.
My child was never interested to take Science tuition lessons even though she was struggling at school. After one semester in Year 10 Science tuition at Matrix, I noticed she began to take interest and excelled!
Matrix+ online lessons are flexible and can be done at any time. They also offer free workshop lessons if you need extra help which is really useful. Highly recommend!
Matrix provides a great learning environment. The teachers are very knowledgeable and are always willing to clear any doubts and answer questions regarding the homework/lesson.
I have attended both termly and holiday courses at Matrix, and found the passionate teachers and in-depth coverage of syllabus content really helpful in solidifying my understandings in both Chemistry and Maths!
My son had a very positive experience with his Maths classes. The teacher is knowledgeable and caring which has helped son not only to be more confident with the subject but also to secure good marks at his school.
I love Matrix! I did Year 11 Chemistry and now I am doing Year 12! My teacher has always been very helpful in teaching and answering our questions. The weekly quizzes are very useful in applying our knowledge and so is the topic test. I would highly recommend Matrix.
What does it mean to 'accelerate' in Maths?
Some NSW schools offer accelerated Mathematics courses for students. Accelerating in Mathematics means completing HSC Mathematics a year early.
The Matrix Maths Acceleration courses follow a structured, term-by-term program which prepares students to complete HSC Mathematics Advanced and Mathematics Extension 1 in Year 11. Year 7 and 8 students are challenged with advanced concepts, with Year 9 students completing both the Year 9 and Year 10 Maths content in one year.
Why should my child accelerate?
Students who complete HSC Mathematics Advanced and Mathematics Extension 1 in Year 11 gain more time in Year 12 for other subjects or revision. They gain early experience in HSC-style questions, and build a deep understanding and confidence for Mathematics Extension 2.
Can my child apply for the Matrix Maths Acceleration Program?
The Maths Acceleration program is designed for high-achieving students in Years 7 to 10 who are ready to fast-track their learning. If your child is motivated, confident, and has exceptional Maths abilities, this program is for you. Students who aim to complete HSC Mathematics Advanced and Extension 1 in Year 11 are also encouraged to apply.
How is Matrix's Maths Acceleration program different to the normal Matrix Maths course?
The Maths Acceleration Program is a rigorous, selective academic program designed for high-performing students who are ready to be challenged beyond their school curriculum. The normal Matrix Maths course teaches students one term ahead, while the Maths Acceleration program fast-tracks students through the Year 7 to 10 content to prepare them to complete the HSC Mathematics Advanced and Mathematics Extension 1 courses in Year 11.
When do applications close?
Students can apply for the Maths Acceleration program at any time. The Maths Acceleration placement test is held every two weeks at select campuses.
Enrolments for Matrix courses close in Week 3 of the Matrix term. If your child is accepted to the Maths Acceleration course after this date, they will join us the following term.
How can I prepare my child for the entry test?
Students can prepare for the entry test by:
What if my child isn’t selected this time?
Our Matrix Academic Team will contact you regarding how to support your child to help them qualify in the future. Students are encouraged to join the term, holiday, or online Maths course to build strong problem-solving skills through structured lessons and marked homework. Students can re-apply at a later date.
Where can my child attend class?
The Maths Acceleration program is available at a majority of our Matrix campuses. It is currently offered as an on-campus class only. Class availability can be found on the Maths Acceleration Course pages.
What happens when my child begins Year 11?
At the conclusion of the Year 10 Maths Acceleration course, students will be enroled in a Year 11 Maths Acceleration course which covers the Year 12 Mathematics Advanced and Mathematics Extension 1 content. These classes are separate to current Year 12 students.
