We know students are easily distracted and forgotten about in large classes, so we limit our classes to small, single-digit student numbers. Our average class size of 6 students support collaborative learning while simultaneously allowing you to receive the individual attention and care you need to succeed.
Through continuous feedback from our students, our lessons have undergone countless revisions to ensure that you are learning efficiently. We understand time is limited, so we make sure our lessons are worth your time and effort.
At Cognito, we adopt an interactive teaching approach that actively involves students in the learning process. Our tutors ask students questions throughout the lesson and offer continuous feedback to their responses to practice questions. This ensures that all students develop a deep understanding of the concepts rather than just memorising them.
Each lesson, receive a printed booklet with colour-coded notes written by our subject specialists that comprehensively cover every dot point in the NESA syllabus. Our booklets are filled with unique HSC-style practice questions, homework and detailed solutions. We are proud to offer our students the best HSC notes in the industry.
We are honoured to have the best tutors in New South Wales on our team. From state rankers to top ATAR achievers, academic achievement is only the beginning. Our HSC Chemistry, Physics and Maths tutors are role models our students can turn to for advice, mentorship, and support.
Since our inception in 2020, we've taught hundreds of students from dozens of different schools and their results speak for themselves. We've combined our knowledge and experience to deliver the best education.
To supplement their learning, students can book up to 1 hour's worth of online tutorials each week. They can bring any questions they have, from our homework, or school and our brilliant teachers will guide them through. These tutorials are perfect for pre-exam preparation.
Students are welcome to join our online Slack platform where they can ask questions 24/7! Our teachers will respond as soon as possible. Students can also ask for feedback on their responses and access exclusive resources such as past papers, worksheets and revision videos.
Throughout the year, in preparation for school assessments, we hold free workshops and webinars focusing on exam techniques as well as university related information such as degree selections, scholarships, medicine applications and more.
Our newly renovated study space is available everyday during our opening hours (weekdays 4 pm – 8.30 pm, weekends 10 am – 5.30 pm). A great alternative to the library, students are welcome to come whether they have classes or not. Free wifi and snacks included!
Many schools complete the topics in a different order and have unique assessment schedules. Our tailored classes can follow your school's unique progression to ensure you always stay one step ahead!
If you are joining mid-topic or miss a lesson, we will always catch you up through lesson videos and tutorials.
