Choosing the specialised route gives you access to qualified teachers who will guide you through your learning, provide you with four one-to-one tutorials focussed on your unique needs, give you additional learning in areas you find difficult, and be available during office hours via email. You will be given a telephone number of your teacher who will be available for immediate support during office hours.
