Want to know how many times I've been asked to help a student choose the right VCE Maths subject?
It's... a lot. So I thought I would try to help out those students who are trying to figure it out. This quiz is free, only has 6 questions and then recommends the best Maths subject for you.
And for good measure, we've made sure to attach a detailed package for the subject you end up with, including a few cheeky cheat sheets for you to use during your study. Enjoy!

ONLINE TUTORING AVAILABLE
https://simplymaths.com.au/online-tutoring
In these times where we are all doing our best to stay home and avoid outside contact, we figured the best way to still work on helping our students learn, and our tutors to earn income and continue working was to move into the world of online tutoring.
We have lots of spaces available, with many tutors available to work extra hours now more than ever. We are making use of a new online platform to help make it easier for tutors to connect with students. All information can be found on our website here: https://simplymaths.com.au/online-tutoring
Please help us by sharing this with anyone you think would be interested, we are giving our all to make sure students and families get the support they need, and to help our tutors continue working and educating during this trying time. Stay safe out there!

Want to know the best question a student can ask in Maths? Or, anywhere, in my humble opinion. A single word, that opens up a world of potential. A word that inspires curiosity, arguably the most important trait in any budding Mathematician or Scientist. "Why?" It is the very definition of curiosity. It shows interest, sparks excitement and fascination, and usually leads to a much deeper understanding on whatever they happening to be studying. [ 399 more words ]

Unfortunately, the frustrating truth of the school system is that not all teachers are fantastic. Don't get me wrong, many teachers are outstanding. They are both passionate and patient, taking the time for each and every one of their students. But for every teacher who loves their job, there is another who doesn't. A troublesome teacher who, for whatever reason, is frustrating to work with for both students and parents. [ 486 more words ]

In the past few weeks, as I've worked with quite a few Methods students, circular function equations have frequently popped up as an issue.
