Modedu offers expert HSC Maths Extension 1 tutoring designed to help students strengthen their problem-solving skills, improve exam performance, and build long-term academic pathways. Delivered online by high-performing tutors, our program supports students across Sydney, NSW and Australia-wide.
Expert guidance for complex concepts
Maths Extension 1 bridges the gap between Advanced Mathematics and the highly abstract Maths Extension 2. It builds:
Advanced algebra and calculus techniques
Logical reasoning and structured problem-solving
Readiness for STEM degrees and high-scaling subjects
Students who succeed in Extension 1 typically excel in pattern recognition, applied maths, and exam resilience — but many need structured feedback and consistent revision to get there.
