How AJ Tutoring Specialists can help your child:
Students complete a Headstart program of study in Number systems & Recursion and Algebra during the summer holidays to give them a solid foundation in these mathematical skills and a practice SAC so as to prepare them for their first assessment SAC which are in the form of topic tests.
