FAQ
  • I am from Victoria. Would your mathematical methods course help?

    You bet! This course follows VCAA study design for Units 1- 4. The course also contains help in the maths methods course in Western Australia for ATAR or WACE, South Australia for SACE and the national curriculum for Mathematical Methods.

  • My VCE exam on maths methods is coming up soon. How should I study for it with StudyPug?

    You can first start with trying out some VCAA past exams to find out which areas you need help with. Then, look for the help in our Mathematical methods course to sharpen your understanding on those topics. If you want to revise some of the materials you have learned in the previous years, no worries, your subscription gives you unlimited access to all maths help in all courses. Same goes to anyone who is taking the ATAR Maths methods assessment too – you can find the ATAR past exams here.

  • What course should I take after General Maths?

    The prerequisite for this course is Year 10 maths or General Maths, and after you mastered mathematical methods, your follow up course should be Calculus 1 or Statistics.

  • Students and parents love our maths help
    But don't take our word for it…
  • Carson E.
    parent

    When we saw our son's grades we looked online for a convenient, affordable and effective solution. StudyPug has been a great investment.

  • Jason G.
    high school senior

    This website saved my butt last semester. I am using it againthis semester. Dennis is the best online tutor... I also like that I can watch videos over and over until I really understand the concept. If you want to save time, sign up...it's only ten bucks and it saved me hours of study time. Thanks, Dennis!

  • Aaron M.
    high school student

    I get a whole library of videos that covers everything from basic to complex mathematics for a very low monthly price. Excellent videos, easy-to-understand and most of all they work. My math test results are 10 points higher than last semester.
