How Will Winter School Benefit Me?

Students who have attended our past Winter School programs have frequently commented that the time they dedicated to learning during the school holiday period provided them with a significant advantage over their peers. By learning materials in advance of school:

  • You will obtain a vital head-start into the Unit 2 and Unit 4 curriculum, and out-perform your peers in tests, exams and assignments
  • You will learn skills and examination techniques that will improve your performance in ALL subject areas, and gain exposure to possible examination questions and materials that students often do not have access to.
  • You will significantly cut down on the time it takes to work through materials on your own. What can take a few hours for you to revise or learn can take an experienced teacher only minutes to explain!
  • You will reduce the time spent preparing for tests and examinations. Research shows that those students who engage in strategically timed reviews remember at least 500% more than their peers.
  • You will become alerted to possible problem areas so that action can be taken in advance.
  • You will dramatically reduce stress levels during the semester, and find more time for leisure activities!
  • You will greatly improve confidence levels and VCE scores.

Students who have attended our Winter School Programs in past years agree that these programs resulted in a more concrete understanding of course materials, decreased workloads and stress levels at school, increased confidence and motivation, and a greatly improved performance in tests, assignments and exams.
