Hey all,
Welcome to another Bored of Studies Mathematics Seminar! Like the ones hosted in July 2012, which were hugely successful, I will be presenting another Mathematics seminar for students studying either 2U, 3U or 4U Mathematics.

--------------------------------------------------
Introduction:
Too many students get stuck with questions during exams or homework because "I don't know where to even start." I am sure that many of you may be familiar with this feeling.
This seminar will NOT be to teach a particular topic. I won't be 'giving you fish'. You have your teacher, tutor or textbooks for that. However, I will 'teach you to fish'.
In other words, I will teach you how to approach and solve the problems in your exams, especially "Prove ..." questions that many students dread. Often, these questions are placed towards the end of the exam and usually carry quite a lot of marks.
From my experience with teaching, I've found that many students tell me things along the lines of...
All students doing any level of Senior Mathematics are welcome. So if you're in Year 10, 11, 12 or even going into 1st Year University, you are all very welcome to attend!
Here is a brief summary of all the details. Please let me know if you have any questions at all!
--------------------------------------------------
What:
A 2 hour seminar (1 hour, break, 1 more hour) on problem solving techniques for Mathematics questions.
--------------------------------------------------
Where: Parramatta Library, in the "Darug Room".
--------------------------------------------------
When: 10:30am, on Wednesday 22nd January 2014.
--------------------------------------------------
How to register: Simply send me a private message here. Please include your name, school and what level of Mathematics you are currently doing. This information will be kept strictly confidential.
Those without an account on this website will need to create one to send me a private message, so I can create an attendance list.

What to bring:
- Yourself
- Pen and paper
- $5 to cover running costs.
- A Mathematical mindset.
--------------------------------------------------
What you receive:
- A more thorough understanding of Mathematical logic.
- More developed problem solving techniques.
- A small booklet containing the power-point presentation used on the day (you will receive this at the end of the seminar).
- Another small booklet containing a summary of the seminar's content.
- Free essay marking!
