the school for excellence



The Weekly Master Classes are specialised weekly tuition classes that are designed to ensure that students reach their full academic potential (including the elite A and A+ scores). These programs are based on a unique 10 step system that ensures students receive the best opportunities to optimise their VCE scores.

Year 11: Chemistry,English,Physics and Mathematical Methods (CAS).
Year 12: Biology, Chemistry, English, ESL, Physics, Psychology, Mathematical
Methods (CAS) and Specialist Mathematics

Venue: Melbourne Conference & Training Centre, Level 1, 477 Collins Street, Melbourne.

Students attend these small group tutorials on a weekly basis, in addition to their regular classes at school. Classes are held outside school hours, both after school and on weekends.

During the course of the Weekly Master Classes, students receive:

  • Interactive instruction that reviews and reinforces concepts taught at schools.
  • Detailed instruction that strengthens, consolidates and extends on required concepts, so as to prepare students for the elite A+ scores.
  • Substantial notes that include step-by-step instructions, fully worked examples and take home practice questions. Questions are designed to reinforce taught concepts, and become progressively more difficult as students master the more challenging aspects of each course.
  • Systematic revision that will ensure a reduction in pre-examination workloads and pressures.
  • Exposure to highly probable examination questions.
  • Specialised instruction in examination techniques and problem solving strategies, with significant emphasis on examination tricks, common student pitfalls and errors.
  • Trial examination papers conducted under examination conditions.
  • Instruction from our highly experienced and qualified teachers.
  • Personalised attention and instruction when required.
  • Question time sessions before and after class.
  • Motivation and support.
