Each lesson is 90 minutes; 30 min of personalised learning and 60min of learning acceleration workshops.

Students are given an individualised learning plan by their tutor based on their original diagnostic test.

In the first 30 minutes of the lesson, students are able to ask and receive help on any school based or tuition work.

In the next hour, students are accelerated in their learning through an interactive workshop based on year level topics that are designed to encourage questioning and problem solving.

Students are given a homework plan at the end of each lesson based on their level of proficiency with the topic.

In the first 30 minutes of the lesson, students may receive help in any area of mathematics. However, it is likely that many questions will be based on the current topic being taught in the tutorial workshops, as lessons are designed to cater for both the current and future learning needs of the members in the class.

For example, two students may be enrolled in the same class with one student studying measurement and the other algebra at school. In this case the tutor may incorporate subject matter in the lesson that covers both topic areas by providing working examples that require the application of algebraic skills in the topic of measurement.

The Australian Curriculum from years 5-10, and SACE and IB curriculum in years 11 and 12.

Students are assessed regularly based on their responses to working problems in class (questions and short quizzes) and homework answers.

Tutors will ‘sign off’ on the students completed homework (on their homework timetable guide), indicating a level of ‘mastery’ achieved in particular units of Maths.

The individualised learning program for each student is an ongoing learning development plan which will be updated as the students Maths proficiency increases over the course of their Grade A tuition experience.

The students may miss key concepts taught during the allocated 60 minute accelerated learning section, but they will be able to catch up and receive support on any material missed when they attend their next class. This will be during the first 30 minutes of the personalised learning time.

Yes, but students will not receive all the required learning to adequately complete a unit of work covered in the tuition workshops. Maths units are usually taught over a 8-10 week period.

Students will be constantly stretched and challenged in their learning through the 60min learning acceleration workshop in every lesson.The subject matter is always new and fresh for each lesson so that students are never bored and are challenged to grow in their learning.
