Year 10 Science
Year 10 Science Course Overview
The Year 10 Science tutoring program covers all syllabus outcomes and requirements of the NESA Stage 5 syllabus, with the overall goal of giving year 10 students the ability and confidence to take on higher scaling science subjects such as Chemistry, Physics and Biology for years 11 and 12. To this end, the program will go into greater depth when covering concepts relevant to these subjects.
This course is ideal for:
- Students who are currently in Year 10 who want to improve marks and ranks in science at school
- Students who intend on doing science subjects for year 11, such as Chemistry, Physics and/or Biology
