 | Program | Matrix Teaching program that covers the NSW board of studies syllabus.

 | Teachers | Matrix Vast classroom teaching experience, HSC and/or university teaching experience with an ability to explain concepts clearly. | Others Have little or no actual teaching experience, cannot explain difficult concepts in a manner that students can understand. |
 | Resources | Matrix A full set of resources written by academics and education researchers. Online access to Supplementary exam papers / texts with top responses. | Others Only address content that students raise, use generic textbooks. |
