FAQs

Do you offer Opportunity Class and Selective School coaching?

We are currently developing our practice exam materials catering specifically to the new online Opportunity Class and Selective School exams.

These materials will be a digital subscription product available through our Digital Platform my-mentor.com.au from Term 2, 2024 and will contain thousands of practice questions by exam type (Maths, English, Thinking Skills) and mock exams (with solutions) for students to prepare and practice at home.

What makes Talent 100 different from other tuition centres?

There are many places where you can get good tuition for HSC subjects. However, Talent 100 is unique in its approach to results-focused teaching and learning. The results speak for themselves with hundreds of Talent 100 students achieving outstanding results every year.

At Talent 100, we help students study smarter, not harder, in the lead up to and during their assessments. We teach you exactly what you need to know in order to score top marks, and we’ll help you be exam-ready when it counts because our course programs are designed to help you prepare for exams all year round.

When is the right time to start tutoring?

Every student is different and there is no “right” time to get tutoring support. However, academic studies highlight the importance of ensuring the fundamentals of Maths and Reading are reinforced from an early age (5+) to have the right building blocks in place for high school and beyond. Our classes begin at Stage 2 (Year 3-4) and extend through to Stage 6 (HSC level). We support students of all levels across these stages to set and extend them to their potential.

This is why we have started Talent Primary. Learning is a lifelong journey and we want to be with you each and every step of the way. Our students partner with us for many years, from learning the foundations, to more advanced problem solving and ultimately to HSC success in Year 12 and beyond.

Who are the teachers and tutors at Talent 100?

At Talent 100, we call all of our teachers and tutors ‘Mentors’, because they do so much more than simply teach content. They guide our students to school and HSC success year after year.

The Talent 100 Academic Team comprehensively understands the NSW Education system and how to succeed in it either as academic high achievers or experienced qualified teachers with proven academic credentials.

As mentors, we represent:

  • Outstanding academic merit – Getting high marks requires having detailed and specific knowledge of the HSC syllabus. Talent 100 Mentors have achieved unparalleled success in the HSC and can use their specific knowledge to help you.
  • Effective communication and strong leadership skills – This ensures the theory can be taught to you in a way you will understand.
  • Passion for teaching and improving your marks – They understand how significant your academic results are in influencing your university course options and, ultimately, your career path, so they are committed to doing whatever it takes to get you there.

Who has written the Primary Course Materials for Talent 100?

Talent Primary has partnered with BrainBuilder Maths to develop its Singapore Maths program. Designed by Dr Fong Ho Kheong, a world-renowned Singapore Maths specialist in conjunction with Julia Fong, the course applies unique model drawing techniques for conceptual learning which consistently places Singapore students at the top of the International Rankings for Mathematics competitions. Julia also teaches the Primary classes across all four centres and is responsible for teacher training.

Our Writing programs have been developed by experienced NESA teacher Mr Harvey Liu. Boasting a teacher career spanning over 7 years, Harvey has applied his Masters of Creative Writing, Bachelor of Education (Secondary) and Bachelor of Arts from the University of Sydney to develop the materials based off new NESA guidelines to be implemented from 2024 onward.
