【大纪元2016年02月04日讯】Dux College是一所为9-12年级学生提供补习课程并专门辅导学生备考HSC的学校。提供的课程可有效提升学生在校成绩和排名,帮助他们获得6级HSC成绩(Band 6,即90-100分),使学生的ATAR成绩达到最优。Dux College的HSC毕业生中有81%的学生ATAR成绩超过90分,70%的学生在他们报名的学科中获得了6级成绩。

学校在Parramatta及Bondi Junction设有校址,Bankstown的新校址也即将开始启用。学生在决定报名之前可以先预订一个自己感兴趣的学科做免费试听

Dux College学校概况

Dux College由2位专业教师Jacqui和Hong于2008年创立。这两位创办者都曾在HSC考试中获得骄人佳绩,他们希望通过创办补习中心系统帮助学生在HSC考试中取得理想的成绩。

纽省的多数学校教学质量均属一般水平——而真正关心ATAR成绩的学生到哪里能够获得并保持其竞争优势呢?这部分学生通常会抱怨学校老师的教学水平不够高,同时会寻找补习教育,如HSC补习课程。HSC系统以排名取胜,因此竞争是核心。了解到悉尼在HSC专门教学上是个空白领域之后,Jacqui和Hong决定创办Dux College悉尼补习中心,专门针对学生HSC考试做辅导,让学生们雄心勃勃的目标得以实现。

学校师资

Dux College的补习教师在各自的学科上均具有省级资格或ATAR成绩在99分以上。学校教师擅于沟通,不同的学生需要不同的辅导,在一对一教学中,教师因材施教。

开设的学科课程

Dux College为9-12年级学生开设补习课程如下:

12年级 – HSC

‧ English Adv
‧ Maths (General, 2u, 3u, 4u)
‧ Physics
‧ Chemistry
‧ Biology
‧ Economics

‧ 1 on 1 for some other subjects 11年级–初级

‧ English Adv
‧ Maths (General, 2u, 3u)
‧ Physics
‧ Chemistry
‧ Biology
‧ Economics

‧ 1 on 1 for some other subjects 10年级–领先II

‧ English
‧ Maths
‧ Science 9年级–领先I
‧ English
‧ Maths
‧ Science
 

教学方式

Dux College重点培养学生的考试技巧,即学生在考试中对于给定考题在打分规则下如何去应答的能力。这很重要,因为HSC的评分员通常是遵循一个严格的打分规则给分,了解这一规则并知道如何应对就非常关键。

Dux College的互动教学让每个学生融入课堂,教师会把难题化成难度不大的小问题让大家参与进来,鼓励学生提出问题。并且每周会给学生留家庭作业,作业都是与HSC考试同样模式的题目以供学生不断的在练习中提高应试能力。

成功案例

以下是近期的几个成功案例:

案例1

2014年下半年,一名来自Cherrybrook Tech学校的12年级学生在Dux College的Parramatta分校参加了HSC物理课补习。她需要在HSC考试的复习初段获得高质量的指导,她是Dux College补习学院的一名成绩很好的学生推荐过来的。

这名学生需要获得物理基础知识的补救式辅导,这是因为10年级她刚刚接触物理课时没搞懂概念,学校老师的教学方法与她的思维方式不符。

她备考HSC的全过程一直在Dux College这里补习。到2015年第一学期末,她在这半年来进步显着,内部学科排名从67/81跃居第16名。到2015年第三学期始,她在HSC模拟考试中再次实现了自己的预期,考到了年级第三名!2015年12月16日,HSC放榜——她告诉Dux College的老师——她的物理成绩为94分,而她学校的老师还曾经断言她会因这门学科而拉低成绩。Sanjna 你真棒!

案例2:

一名来自James Ruse High School的学生参加了Dux College在Parramatta的2015年第一学期英语高级班课程。这名学生在精英中学本来就是个尖子生,只是想保持名次并在那几个有限的竞争者里不失去优势。他特别需要6级标准的写作辅导。2015年12月16日,他写邮件告诉Dux College,他的英语成绩考到了6级的高分及在本学科中省内的可能排名。祝贺你 William!

英文介绍

Dux College provides tutoring for years 9, 10, 11 and 12 and specialises in the HSC. Our programs improve students’ ranks and marks at school, and help them attain band 6 HSC results and maximise their ATAR. Over 81% of Dux College HSC graduates attain an ATAR of 90+, and over 70% attain a band 6 result in their enrolled subjects. We are located in Parramatta and Bondi Junction, with a location in Bankstown coming soon. New students can book a free trial lesson for any subjects they’re interested in, before deciding whether to enrol.

About Dux College

Dux College was founded in 2008 by two professional teachers, Jacqui and Hong, who were passionate about helping students achieve their HSC goals. Having done extremely well themselves for their own HSC, they sought to create a system that reproduces their own success.

An area that’s severely lacking is the quality of teaching at most schools across NSW, stemming from the fact that the average teacher at the average school is only able to cater to the average student at best – what about students that actually care about their ATAR? Where do they go to attain and maintain a competitive edge over their peers? Such students often primarily complain about the lack of quality teaching at school and seek out supplementary education such as HSC tutoring . The HSC system is inherently rank based, and competition is the heart of the game. Dux College understands the needs of students in this situation, and caters completely to every aspect of their academic life, from year 9 to 12. Realising a lack of tutors and tutoring centres in Sydneythat specialise in the HSC, Jacqui and Hong decided to form Dux College, an organisation specifically catering to students preparing for the HSC. We make our students’ ambitious goals achievable.

Today, Dux College is the choice of 300+ HSC students across Sydney each year – we run over 40 classes every week and have over 20 state-ranking tutors helping our students get band 6 results and achieve their ATAR goals.

Our tutors

Dux College’s team of tutors have all attained a state rank in the subject(s) they teach, or have attained an ATAR of 99+ and are currently studying or have completed related undergraduate studies.

Dux College carefully selects tutors that are not only subject area experts, but excellent communicators. Our tutors cater to the students individually, according to their needs and abilities. We understand students learn in different ways and at different paces, some students are shy and need a push to interact. Our tutors incorporate all these considerations in their teaching and our small classes ensure individualised focus is not sacrificed in a class environment.

Dux College typically offers courses for high scaling subjects. This is because students who want to achieve a high ATAR for entry into a specific university course are better advised to do high scaling subjects. At the same time, high scaling subjects tend to be more difficult and students can often benefit from some external guidance, such as joining our classes. Average teachers at average schools often struggle to completely deliver the full depth of the syllabus outcomes and requirements for these demanding courses.

Our approach to teaching

Dux College runs 2 hour weekly lessons for each subject. We cover a small part of the syllabus each week, culminating in comprehensive coverage of syllabus outcomes and requirements as the year progresses. The pace our classes maintain is slightly accelerated compared to most schools, and can be likened to a high ranking selective school. However, we find the pace is manageable in a small class of motivated students.

In addition to thorough coverage of all conceptual content, Dux College classes place a heavy emphasis on coverage proper exam technique. Exam technique refers to a student’s ability to structure their responses appropriate to the marking criteria for a given question they attempt. This skill is extremely important throughout high school leading up to the HSC, because HSC markers always follow a strict marking criteria in deciding whether to award full marks. We thoroughly cover every possible exam situation and how to structure a response for band 6 in all of our courses. Our students become fully prepared for their assessments and exams, both in terms of conceptual understanding, and also how to appropriately structure their responses to fully satisfy the marking criteria.

During class, content is covered, with contextual reference made to relevant exam situations whenever relevant. Students are actively encouraged to participate as we believe an interactive class environment assists with student learning. Our tutors are skilled at breaking down difficult concepts into manageable pieces for students to internalise, and class discussion is fostered to encourage students asking questions.
Homework is given each week, in the style of HSC exam questions. They are fully marked each week in the same style as HSC markers do (using a strict criteria) – if a student doesn’t receive full marks for any particular question, the marker puts comments on what is missing from their response. All this works to build familiarity with the style of exam questions and marking regime HSC students are exposed to and need to become proficient at.

Past results and case studies

Over the past 5 years, we’ve enjoyed an 81% rate of graduates achieving an ATAR above 90, counting only the students who have been with us from the first term of their HSC. Over 70% of the same lot achieve a band 6 in their enrolled subjects. The median ATAR for our Maths Extension 2 class varies from 98 to 99 each year.
Here are some recent situations that we’ve helped with:

Case study 1:
A student from Cherrybrook Tech joined our HSC Physics class in Parramatta in late 2014 as a new year 12 student. She wanted to get high quality support for the beginning of their HSC and was referred to us by a friend that’s been doing well at school and was at the time already our student.

The student was also in need of some remedial help of her weak foundations in the subject, as the teacher at school has not been explaining concepts in a way that she understood since year 10.

She remained with us throughout her HSC. By late Term 1 2015, she did remarkably well for her half yearlies, her internal subject rank went from 67/81 to 16th. By early Term 3 2015, she outperformed her expectations again in her HSC Trials, coming 3rd in the grade! On 16/12/15, HSC results were released – she texted us her results – she ended up with a 94 in Physics, and recalled that she was initially advised to drop it by her school teachers. Well done Sanjna!

Case study 2:
A student from James Ruse High School joined our HSC English Adv classes in Parramatta in Term 1 2015. The student was already doing quite well at a top ranked selective school, but wanted to maintain his ranks and get an edge over his few competitors. He especially wanted help with structuring essays at a band 6 standard. On 16/12/15, he notified us by email of a high band 6 for English Adv and a possible state rank in the subject. Well done William!
