Amazing tutoring service, Dr Spong is an amazing tutor.
Amazing tutoring service, highly qualified teachers
Matrix is a great and helpful tutor place especially from a student who did year 12 chemistry here!! For me, I would definitely recommend it and it’s a way for me to be motivated in the subject I’m studying!
Matrix Box Hill is a high-quality tutoring centre. The teachers are very qualified, and they have a wide range of knowledge on the subject they teach. They do their best in answering your questions. Often I have found that tutoring companies treat you as a number, not as a student. However, Matrix is great for accommodating your individual needs as a learner. The classrooms are very modern and there are study spaces for 1-1 workshops too.
I have been trying this tutoring place for a while now and I must say it is one of the best tutoring places I’ve been to. The tutoring is of high quality. The tutors are kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. The workshops help you consolidate the learning. Highly recommended.

Amazing tutoring i like the resources and they give you snacks
I used to find homework and school work difficult. It took me so much time to get it all done. After joining Matrix, I can keep up with school work a lot quicker.
The UCAT Prep Course provided quizzes that identified my weak points and allowed me to do multiple drills on topics I struggled with. The simulated exams were extremely similar to the real exam. When I came to sit the actual UCAT, I was already familiar with the layout and could easily orient myself without panicking.
The Matrix Prep Course helped me to gain a greater understanding of the modules and what aspects I should particularly focus on when revising. This allowed me to efficiently study and feel more comfortable when sitting my exams.
The UCAT Masterclass is frankly one of the best courses out there in its sheer ability to holistically tackle all question types from all 5 sections of the UCAT. It’s evident that UCAT Prep Course is highly dedicated to providing students with the most tried and effective strategies to smash out every single section, apparent in the structured layout of their in-course ‘textbook’.
It was really good having experienced teachers for the UCAT course because you don’t miss out on any important details or tips. Having a teacher specialising in each subtest of the UCAT exam allows you to create a separate mindset for each of the five subtests which are different from each other.
Matrix Physics classes have allowed me to pick up concepts faster and retain information better. I was also supported by knowledgeable teachers and had reliable resources to look back on. Matrix ensures that students not only understand the HSC content, but comprehend the reasoning and important foundations behind it as well.
Matrix Chemistry class offered a paced and guided learning experience that has helped me hone my knowledge and exam techniques. It has a team of inspirational and insightful teachers who create welcoming and comfortable classroom environments, where I felt like I could grow as a student.
The English course is so well designed. We are exposed to many different text types, allowing us to prepare for any possible exam question that could come up. My teacher also helped me work towards improving my writing by pinpointing areas of improvement.
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 that 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 any more grateful.
Year 12 English term courses helped me gain a broader understanding of all the Modules as well as improve my analysis skills. Moreover, the valuable feedback I received from my teacher ultimately gave rise to higher marks and increased confidence.
The structured lessons with quizzes and question time for homework really helped consolidate my knowledge as well as learn from my classmates.
