Brainworks built his confidence and he was able to deal with complex maths problems. Staff were very competent and took a keen interest. The course content was ideal for preparation, well designed for getting the best results, consequently he was offered a place at Melbourne High. All of my questions were answered throughout the course and I surely recommend Brainworks. The seriousness, passion and commitment of staff is praiseworthy. Praveen
