Hey guys. As a part of my preparation over the summer holidays should i do the tsfx summer school lectures or derrick ha?
-
I'd recommend Derrick Ha, I have an uninformed opinion that he is less of a douche.

+1, I'm going Derrick Ha (+ he actually did VCE)
(and one of the TSFX lecturers is from my school and wasn't allowed to teach spesh until last year)
-
Don't go to TSFX...
-
Definitely go to Derrick Ha. You will enjoy the lessons ALOT more, he can communicate on your level, and he's relatively in the same age bracket as us, so by default you'll be inclined to be more interested in what he's saying.

i think the spesh tsfx teacher is a guy named ireson from mhs. apparently his not very good and focuses alot on calculator usage and ive heard his a bit weird~

He wasn't too popular as a teacher at MHS, and I personally thought he was a bit weird as someone else pointed out (he was in charge of badminton so I met him a few times), but my friend who went to TSFX for his classes surprised me by saying that she enjoyed his classes and found him really funny and helpful.

^I don't like Ireson too much
-
I can't speak for Derrick ha, although he seems to have a great reputation from everyone, butTSFX has this other guy as well for spesh and I personally find him better..
-
Hey guys thanks for your opinion! i'll probs go to Derrick for spesh but TSFX for chem, physics and english.
And rofltina im also curious on whether TSSM is better or TSFX for the above subjects....^^^^^^^^^
-
TSSM specialises in maths, but DH is much better... So go with TSFX for the others
-
Hmm.. sorry if this is off topic but derrick ha or a private tutor or both? :o

Don't go to a private tutor unless you're in desperate need..Better spending your money elsewhere.

+1, I'll just go to revision lectures at the end of the year
-
Hey Rohitpi, has Derrick Ha replied to you for payments, etc?
I've registered but haven't had any replies since, not sure if I got a place.
And is he having like many classes on each of the days specified? As him saying only 5 people per class makes him sound like he's only teaching a total of five people.
