Secondary Maths
Going up into high school can be really scary. Making new friends, finding your way around, learning how to use text-books and lots more homework can be a real challenge. So your children need all the help you can give them.
Maths Wiz is a structured course, written especially for Australian school children. This means that your child is learning exactly what is needed to achieve success in school.
At AAME we know that not all children are learning maths at the same pace. So we do a“Maths Doctor” assessment to find out exactly what your child doesn’t know, that they should know, for the year they are studying at the moment. This saves us time, saves you money and gives us an accurate place to start the revision process.
Building a strong foundation
Learning Maths is like building a brick wall with building bricks of knowledge. If some of these bricks are left out of the wall it will crumble the student then loses confidence and starts guessing. So it is really important to choose a system that thoroughly supports what is taught in Australian schools.
Most importantly, we offer complete year 11 and 12 courses written to your State or Territory's curriculum. This is vital, because it gives the student the whole picture. So you can be completely prepared for exams and assessment tasks. Our students achieve outstanding ENTER scores.
Guidance from our tutors
Knowing that their work is being constantly monitored by our enthusiastic young tutors, and that a goal is being set by someone from outside, encourages students to return on a consistent and regular basis. Our programs are built around a 26 week course and during that time amazing results can be achieved.
Revision or catch up work
“Level 4” in Maths Wiz is the work that is supposed to be completed and thoroughly understood by the time a student has finished primary school. It is an Advanced Upper Primary course, and is not always fully covered in primary school. Students who do not master these topics, may get left behind and never make good progress in the secondary level. We find that our students develop their understanding very quickly and we are able to progress and catch-up on the “level 4” area, so they are thoroughly prepared for more advanced work in school.
“Level 5” Maths Wiz supports the first two years of secondary school. Also, it is essential revision for year 9 and 10 students. At this level students have to learn how to solve a maths problem and start on new topics, such as “algebra”. In secondary maths, you must learn how to write out your workings properly in order to achieve good grades in maths.
“Level 6” Maths Wiz is the advanced secondary school work and should be achieved before commencing year 11. This is more challenging work, and students need to understand Algebra really well. In school, this is the level of achievement required to be selected for the more demanding Year 11 and 12 maths courses such as VCE Maths Methods in Victoria, HSC Maths in New South Wales, Senior Maths B in Queensland or ACT Mathematical Applications and ACT Maths Methods for the Australian Capital Territory.
Working with Maths Wiz:
Tutorials are engaging and easy to understand and every lesson has a set of questions to reinforce learning. These questions are randomly picked from a pool of suitable questions, specially designed by our tutors and computer programmers.
Each question is immediately marked by the computer so that the student is never in doubt. Much better than school homework, where if you can’t do the first question, you tend to give up.
Maths Wiz really helps students to understand what they haven't understood in school.
