You’ll study best when you are able to direct all your attention to your Matrix+ resources. So, sit down in a place where you can comfortably write in your book and/or use a device without being disturbed.

One of the key advantages of Matrix+ Online Courses is that you have ongoing access to the lessons and Q&A board throughout the whole school year! Make the most of it — refer back to concepts you struggle with or keep bugging the experienced teachers on the Q&A discussion board with your queries.
Jake scored a 99.95 ATAR by just doing all that. Here’s what he has to say about his learning approach with Matrix+.
