What is covered in this workshop?
The National Benchmark Tests are split into two tests, the AQL and MAT. This workshop prepares learners for the MAT test commonly known as the Mathematics test. Here, learners are taught new methods and techniques to ensure they are able to answer mathematical questions in a way that is different from what they already know and without the use of a calculator.
The workshop is delivered by one of Advantage Learn’s expert teaching team members using modern technology and teaching methods to make the content come to life in a memorable way for the learners who are getting ready to sit the NBT test which can define their future.
This workshop includes a print version of our MAT NBT Preparation Workbook!

The teacher wasted a lot of time in the beginning. We didn’t finish what needed to be done within the 2 workshops. However the recorded version with Trish Pike is a lot better

The MAT workshop was definitely worth my time. After being so used to using a calculator, the workshop really helped open my mind to methods I would never have thought of on my own. The workshop helped me understand the ways in which I could analyze different questions and how to approach them. The teaching was easy to understand and the response to questions was clear and efficient.

The workshop was very helpful in both teaching you how to answer in multiple choice as well as adjust your mindset to learn and see maths in a different way to normal school maths lessons.

The workshop really helps in putting you in the mind set and way of thinking that is needed when tackling the test. I recommend doing it and learning as much as you can from it. NBTs offer a very different way of testing than we are used to. It’s worth it

The first session (Saturday) was very insightful however I felt that the the second session (Sunday) was very rushed also considering that this was a topic I'm struggling on. With any questions that needed to be answered, I ended up just guessing as I couldn't keep up.

Despite not being able to see her students during the livestream the teacher knew which specific sections we would struggle in which is indication of her experience and allowed us to trust her fully in preparing us.

Excellent tuition, many topics covered which we haven't even had covered by our teachers in school. Feel more prepared (and a little bit scared because now I know NBTs aren't as easy as they're made out to be.)

the course was very very good. The only complaint I have is that the maths went a little too quickly for my liking. Other than that, the course was great.
