How We Guide Our Students To HSC Success
Learn Ahead.
Learn First Principals.
Smart students learn ahead either over the School Holidays or during the term. They use school to revise. It’s called the second time learning advantage. Students who use this approach perform better in exams and spend less time revising.
Comprehend.
Truly Understand
At Marquis, we teach first principals, allowing students to understand the ‘why’ behind their learning topics. We do not move on until we know your child has grasped the theoretical concepts and taught topics
Retain.
Test Knowledge.
Retention is essential when building towards assessments and exams. At Marquis, we offer weekly homework structured with exam style questions to ensure students retain the theoretical content being taught and familiarise and prepare students with make exam-style questions.
Practice.
Practice Makes Perfect
At Marquis, we encourage students to take advantage of our rich and extensive resource library. With thousands of practice papers, mock exams and past papers, students can spend less time finding best practice examples and more time practising.
Submit.
Homework
The submission of Marquis exam-style homework allows Educators to intimately understand how each student is progressing, allowing comprehensive and specific feedback focusing on targetting areas of weakness before critical assessments and exams.
Consolidate Feedback.
Work With Feedback
We believe in providing the most comprehensive, detailed and specific feedback based on our deep knowledge and experience of the most up to date new NSW NESA syllabus to support students in developing their classical literature and numeracy skills.
Prepare For Assessments & Exams.
Be Exam Ready
Assessment, Trial and Exam Excellence preparation is a core part of Marquis Course Programs. Weekly practice and time allocation for students to focus on school-based assessments ensure students feel in control of their studies and are confident and exam ready.
A Structured Learning Methodology that Works
The Marquis Weekly 1½ hour class + 1 hour drop-in tutorial Lesson Breakdown
Learn, comprehend and retain. Practice. Revise. Prepare for exams. Achieve results.
We’ve broken down our course programs into a step-by-step proven approach that will address each student’s personal learning needs.
Year 7 English - You'll Develop...
- Improved essay writing skills and textual synthesis of prescribed texts.
- Creative writing techniques that can be adapted to various stimuli.
- A comprehensive understanding of the NESA syllabus outcomes and technical analysis required for Stage 4 English.
- The perfect examination technique when responding to a range of text types.
By the end of the term your child will create:
- Critical essays and persuasive responses for their school prescribed texts, edited by our Educators.
- Creative narratives that are of the highest quality.
- An intimate understanding of English exam techniques so they become second nature.
Year 7 Math's - You'll Develop...
- Problem solving skills through our in-depth examples of simple and more difficult worded questions. Our Theory Workbooks will come with worked solutions for these examples, so students will have an easy to refer to study guide for school exams.

By the end of the term your child will create
- Various methodologies for tackling different Math problems, enabling students to conquer time and efficiency when answering complex questions.
