VCE General Maths Packages
Specialist VCE General Maths Tutoring
Our targeted programs are built entirely on transparency, professional experience, and academic impact. Choose your child's educational roadmap with absolute confidence, knowing every intensive includes full curriculum alignment and zero hidden costs.
Learning From Home offers purposefully designed tutoring packages built around the VCAA General Mathematics Study Design. We don’t just casually complete school homework or finish off worksheets from class. These are purpose-built lessons designed to target key learning areas that students need to master in order to perform at their best in assessments and the end-of-year exam.
We offer two options: a premium one-on-one package for a personalised learning experience, or a small group package for a more collaborative environment. All sessions are held in a dedicated virtual classroom.

A fully personalized curriculum, working directly with an expert VCE specialist.
Our premium one-on-one program pairs your child with an expert VCE teacher for a fully personalised learning experience. Each 6-session intensive is purpose-built around the VCAA General Mathematics Study Design, targeting the highest-priority learning areas so that students develop a thorough understanding of each concept and walk into their assessments and end-of-year exam with complete confidence.
Format: 6-session strategic unit intensive.
Structure: Private, one-on-one specialist mentorship.
Key Policies & Attendance
Custom Scheduling: Session times are coordinated directly with your specialist tutor prior to the program cycle to fit seamlessly into your family's weekly timetable.
Flexible Rescheduling: Understandably, schedules change. Individual sessions can be rescheduled with zero penalties, provided a minimum of 24 hours notice is given.
Short-Notice Cancellations: Cancellations made with less than 24 hours notice are non-refundable and cannot be rescheduled.
Session Accountability: If a session is missed on short notice, students still receive full access to that session's comprehensive lesson notes
Small Group Tutoring
The same quality instruction, at a fraction of the price.
6-Sessions
$297
$49.50 per session
Our small-group program delivers the exact same expert instruction, premium curriculum resources, and lesson content as our private 1:1 tutoring. This ensures students receive the highest quality academic guidance within a collaborative environment.
Format: 6-session strategic unit intensive.
Group Size: Strict minimum of 3 and maximum of 5 students.
Key Policies & Attendance
Enrolment Minimums: If a group does not reach 3 students by the start date, the program may be delayed by one week, or you will receive a full refund.
No Rescheduling: Due to the fixed nature of group timetables, individual sessions cannot be rescheduled or refunded.
Absence Support: If a student misses a live session, they receive full access to the lesson recording, annotated notes, and the unit resource pack so they never fall behind.
