$40Free for Term 3

Free for every student who registers this Term 3. Spots are limited, so get your interest in early.

A real past paper, fully explained

Work through a real past paper and high-value exam-style questions, with solutions walked-through live to show exactly how to earn full marks.

Week 6–7 of Term 3 at ANU

Sessions held late August / early September at ANU, right before exams. Final dates and venue are confirmed once the final exam timetable is out, so sessions land exactly when they're most useful.

Four subject groups

Y11 Methods, Y11 Specialist Methods, Y12 Methods, and Y12 Specialist Methods — each group gets its own dedicated session.

How a session runs

Practice first. Then exactly how to score full marks.

Step 1: Sit exam-style questions

You receive a past paper or a targeted set of exam-style questions, with the priority questions flagged to attempt first.

Step 2: Work with support on hand

Work individually or in small groups at tables while tutors circulate — so getting stuck becomes a learning moment, not twenty minutes lost.

Step 3: Full worked walkthrough

We go through high-value questions in full: the worked solution, and exactly how to approach it to secure full marks in the real exam.

Step 4: Your questions, answered

Time permitting, we cover extra questions students ask for — so nothing you're stuck on goes unanswered.

Who it’s for

If your course covers this content, this session is for you

Mathematical Methods sessions cover exponential functions, and arithmetic and geometric sequences and series. Specialist Methods sessions cover those same two topics, plus logarithmic functions — all aligned with the standard BSSS curriculum.

Open to Year 11 and 12 students at any ACT school studying the BSSS curriculum — if this is what your exam covers, the practice and technique here will apply directly.

Who’s running it

  • Run personally by Tutoring Tree founders Oscar Shum and Arjun Rao, who went through the ACT college system themselves and tutor senior maths students every week
  • All tutors WWVP-registered
  • Small groups, so you get individual attention rather than sitting in a lecture-style crowd
  • Real past-exam papers, not generic worksheets
  • Held at the Australian National University (ANU) — the exact room will be shared once your spot is confirmed

Questions

Questions students and parents ask

Does submitting the expression of interest commit me to anything?

No. Submitting your interest doesn't commit you to anything — it just registers your interest so we can confirm which groups and times are running. Once that's locked in, we'll email you to confirm your spot. Sessions are free this term, so there's nothing to pay at any stage.

What happens if my year group or subject doesn't get enough interest?

Each group — Y11 Methods, Y11 Specialist, Y12 Methods, Y12 Specialist — runs independently once enough students register interest. If your group doesn't get there, we'll let you know and can flag you for future sessions.

Does this match what my school is covering?

Mathematical Methods sessions cover exponential functions and arithmetic and geometric sequences and series. Specialist Methods sessions cover those same two topics plus logarithmic functions. These align with the standard BSSS curriculum, so if your course covers this content, the session will be useful regardless of which school you're at.

Is there any cost?

No — sessions are free this term. There's no payment at any stage, so there's nothing to refund or cancel.

Is this a proper, professional session — or just a study group?

It's a structured, tutor-led session run by Tutoring Tree's founders, Oscar and Arjun, who went through the ACT college system themselves and tutor senior maths students week in, week out. You'll work through real past-exam papers, not generic worksheets, and every question is walked through in full — the method, the exam technique, and exactly how to score full marks.

When and where exactly are the sessions?

Sessions are planned for Week 6 and Week 7 of Term 3 — roughly the last week of August and the first week of September — with final dates confirmed once the exam timetable is locked in, so they land right before exams. Sessions are held at the Australian National University (ANU); the exact room will be shared once your spot is confirmed.

And after exams? Test prep attendees get first access to our upcoming holiday program — a head start on next term’s content.

Exams are coming either way. Walk in prepared.

Registering your interest is free, takes two minutes, and commits you to nothing — it just makes sure your group and timeslot can be confirmed.
