Approach
Structured Acceleration
In just 9 days, students cover a full term’s worth of Specialist Mathematics Units 3/4 content before it is taught at school. This head start reduces the pressure of learning new concepts during the busy school term and allows students to use class time at school for reinforcement rather than first exposure.
Teaching Approach
Lessons are delivered by expert teachers through clear explanations, step-by-step worked examples, and explicit instruction. Students apply their learning through guided practice, daily problem-solving, and VCE-style questions. Immediate feedback ensures concepts are consolidated and any gaps are addressed quickly.
Content Mix
Each lesson balances theory and application across the Specialist Mathematics syllabus. Students develop conceptual clarity, practise applying techniques to complex problems, and learn to tackle non-routine and multi-step exam questions confidently.
9-Day Sequencing
The course runs across nine consecutive sessions over two weeks. Each day builds on the last in a deliberate sequence, reinforcing learning through daily practice and review. By the end of the program, students have completed the full module for Specialist Mathematics Units 3/4, leaving the term free for revision and exam preparation.
