Are you a Mathematics (2U) student? Watch this video instead: https://youtu.be/Uw40-TTkEq4
This video was put together by my friend and colleague, Stuart Palmer. Stuart is an expert maths teacher (see below for more of a description) and the advice you'll find in this video is the distillation of many years spent working out the most effective ways to do things (and also noticing the most common errors that students need to consciously avoid). This is a fantastic summary of many pieces of advice that I give my own students over the course of the HSC year - boiled down into one half-hour chunk. Enjoy!
