Dr. He

[WhoTookMyUsername]

Do you guys recommend going to him (pros + cons)? Dr. G is a bit to far away for me (both methods and spesh)


Anyone got the enrolment info?
pm me if you do

thanks

I went to him and I don't recommend going to him. Sometimes he teaches stuff that isn't even on the course and other times the material he covers could be covered from any tutor/reading the book yourself. I think that you would only need a tutor to teach you the basics and perhaps the tricky stuff, but Dr He is supposedly for those who are already 'good' or set in maths, and those types of people are better off doing questions themselves imo.

Hey Bazza16, could you please give me the info for Dr.G.Thanks..

Yeah, he's right..because he only gives those questions which will require hours of thinking to get it  and he doesn't revise the basic concept and that's what his teaching is lacked of. Agree with dc302 as this is for the ppl who are really good in maths and don't need much help but just doing  more of his given practice questions.

Hey Bazza16,
If you are interested in him, I can give you the info of his
but the enrolment form I ask from him is for 2011 enrolment.
But still can give you an overview of his stuff.

I feel the need to defend a man who I consider a hero.

Out of the course is actually a secret to teaching that is utilized by both Dr. G. and Dr. He. I've asked them both why Dr G.'s SACs as well as Dr He's questions seem out of the course and they both replied that it actually helps you know your maths better because although the topics of the questions seem to not follow the course, the fundamental knowledge is still there. Also there are a lot of questions that people say is out of the course but if you go back to several years back, they have appeared in VCAA papers. The thing that saved me in Spesh this year was Dr He's teachings in a Motion question. I thought it was out of the course but then when I looked back at really old VCAA papers it was there and luckily this year a very similar question appeared in Exam 2.

Many teachers and students may go witness one of his classes and do not understand his methods of teaching. He never revises. He makes you perfect mathematical syntax. His questions are extremely difficult. And no one EVER asks questions in a Dr He class (not sure about general which contains some new students but the old students in challenge class understand you dont ask questions). But it is nevertheless effective for most of his students. Treat him as a sort of extension that is used to fuel the smarter kids in maths. My views above may be a bit biased but I really have felt that this man has helped me heaps throughout my high school years.

I was referring more to how Dr. He tried to teach us how to solve ODEs with integrating factors... wayyy off the course. Dr. G's sacs on the other hand were AMAZING to say the least. 100% within the course and somewhat challenging. I could not compare the two (people) if you asked me.

If there's one thing this year, it's that you can never assume a tricky/different question that catches you off guard is out of the spesh course. NOTHING is out of the spesh course.
