Expert HSC Tutors
Our tutors are a mix of qualified teachers, Ph.D candidates with a passion for education and high achieving university students who received state-ranks and high ATARs in their HSC. They have years of experience teaching these subjects with incredible results.

Result Based Tuition
Maxx Academy’s qualified tutors educate our students with passion. We know how to organize our time effectively. Tutoring the right topics at the right time. We believe that to ensure the best results, we must attend to the needs of each individual student.

Small Classes
We are highly focused on individual attention so our classes are small (i.e. 6 students) and we are constantly adapting our teaching techniques based on the particular student's needs. Our tutors are able to work with students in a much smaller teacher-to-student ratio than classroom dynamics allow.

Individual Workshops
We take care individual students’ needs as we know 100 students have 100 different needs. The mission of all our passionate tutors, who are qualified professionals, is to inspire our students to gain the essential skills and confidence to achieve exceptional results in their HSC.

Tailored Course Materials
All teaching materials, homework sets and exam preparation materials are carefully designed by our head teachers. We source past exam questions from top selective and private schools along with past HSC papers.

Intensive Courses
Our HSC courses consist of 10 lessons. We cover the whole module in the 8 lessons, so that we are 2 weeks ahead of school each term. The 8th lesson is revision of difficult topics. In the 9th and 10th, students sit our HSC-style exams and receive feedback.

We are conveniently located in the heart of Chatswood, North Shore, NSW. Please check our contact us page.

Yes correct! Although our students get priority, our events are generally open to the public and are FREE! These events may be crash courses, interview workshops, seminars, or trial examinations.

Maxx Academy employs a strong academic team consisting of state ranking tutors with an extremely high ATAR, or current high school teachers who are experienced with HSC marking, teaching and curriculum design. In addition to being tutors to our students, they act as role models, showing our students where their future could lead with the right guidance and effort.

Our tutors provide focused guidance on exactly what they need to know and how to perform in exams in order to maximize their exam marks.

The new syllabuses for Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry have officially been released.

Physics and Chemistry will have the first HSC in 2019, while Mathematics will start the new syllabus in Year 11, 2018.
