Student testimonials:
"Shirley has a skill of explaining content in ways she knows her students will absorb it. Her methodology to track errors when practicing past paper questions is brilliant. She is a star educator who definitely knows how to teach!"
"My Maths ability improved exponentially due to my lessons with Shirley. No other teacher has ever explained concepts so clearly and with such skill that even I could understand them. Advanced Mathematics is a tough course yet Shirley's passion for teaching and caring for her students helped me achieve the highest band."
A brilliant opportunity for Advanced Mathematics students to consolidate their knowledge and be prepared for the Year 11 Preliminary Exams. Exam-style questions covering the topics of the Advanced Mathematics course will be presented with worked solutions given in an online and interactive course. This course will be aimed at Advanced students who are not doing Ext 1 Mathematics as the pace will be slower than the 4u2gr0w Ext 1 courses.
