Mathematical Methods (CAS)At TSSM we cover VCE Mathematical Methods (CAS) in more detail than any other educational institute in Victoria.
With an extensive team of professional Mathematical Methods (CAS) teachers, most of whom are current VCE assessors, we are able to provide students with nine intensive programs throughout the year.
Why would you go anywhere else? Please read below for specific course information.
Summer School - Head Start to Units 1 & 3
Students will develop a thorough understanding of all Unit 1 or Unit 3 Areas of Study including;
Unit 1: Functions and Graphs; Algebra; Rates of Change; and Probability (introductory probability).
Unit 3: Functions and Graphs; Algebra; and Calculus (differential).
Our detailed Summer School Mathematical Methods (CAS) Programs are nine hours in length and held over two days at TSSM's VCE Centre (Level 14, 474 Flinders Street, Melbourne).
Both programs highlight the key areas of Mathematics from the previous year level which are critical in giving students a head start to Unit 1 or Unit 3 studies and SACs for Mathematical Methods (CAS).
Unit 1 or Unit 3 content will be covered in detail over the two days with an emphasis on problem solving strategies and the practical application of mathematical concepts to SACs and examination style questions.
Both programs are designed to ensure that students are ready to tackle Unit 1 or Unit 3 material with confidence and to improve skills necessary to perform well with their Unit.
This program is conducted in a friendly classroom atmosphere with a limit of forty students per class ensuring that students can ask questions.
Unit 3 - 12 Week Intensive Tutorial Classes
Students will be given a full revision on all Unit 3 Areas of Study including; Functions and Graphs (including circular functions); Algebra (including logarithm laws, factorisation and inverse functions); and Calculus (differential).
Our 12 Week Intensive Mathematical Methods (CAS) Tutorial Classes are twenty-eight hours in length and held at TSSM's VCE Centre (Level 14, 474 Flinders Street, Melbourne).
This program covers all Unit 3 content in detail and focuses on the application of theory to examination style questions necessary for peak performance in Unit 3 Mathematical Methods (CAS) SACs and the final examinations.
Students will be able to sharpen their skills by completing an extensive range of examination style questions througout the program.
Students will be in groups with similar task oriented students in a friendly classroom atmosphere. With a limit of only eight to twelve students per class this ensures that students can really develop.
Units 1 & 3 - Easter Holiday Program
Students will be given a detailed review of all Unit 1 or Unit 3 Areas of Study including;
Unit 1: Functions and Graphs; Algebra; Rates of Change; and Probability (introductory probability).

Students will be able to sharpen their skills by completing an extensive range of examination style questions.
During Weeks 12 to 15, students will sit four trial examination papers under strict examination conditions. Two of the trial examinations will be based on Written Exam 1 (technology free examination) and two will be based on Written Exam 2 (technology enabled examination).
These trial examination papers are prepared adhering to VCAA guidelines and specifications, ensuring that students receive a realistic indication of the official VCAA examinations.
Students will be grouped with similar task oriented students in a friendly classroom atmosphere. With a limit of only eight to twelve students per class, this ensures that students can really develop.
