our story
We sat the same exams, fell into the same VCAA traps, and spent whole evenings stuck on single questions with nobody to ask. LockedIn exists so you don't have to.
Instead of a teacher and a stack of past papers, we built a system: custom interactive resources around the exact concepts you're learning, worked solutions to every question, and a structure tailored to optimised exam results.
With small group classes and unlimited support between lessons, you're never behind, never stuck and never guessing — and parents always know exactly where their child stands.

Every exam has one question that decides the top study scores. This is the real one from the 2019 Methods Exam 2 — recreated from the paper, with the statewide marks from the official examination report. Then watch how fast it falls when you can see it.

Section B · Question 5
2 marks
Let f : R → R, f (x) = 1 − x3. The tangent to the graph of f at x = a, where 0 < a < 1, intersects the graph of f again at P and intersects the horizontal axis at Q. The shaded regions are bounded by the graph of f, its tangent at x = a and the horizontal axis.
Consider the regions bounded by the graph of f−1, the tangent to the graph of f−1 at x = b, where 0 < b < 1, and the vertical axis.
f. Find the value of b for which the total area of these regions is a minimum.

One cubic. Question 5 walks you up a ladder — tangent, intercepts, areas — and then part f. pulls the floor away: 95% of Victoria scored zero on it.
Here's the whole question, taught the way a LockedIn booklet teaches it — one move at a time. Click through.
the system
booklets
We're the first tutoring company to integrate animations and interactive note booklets — concepts you can see move, not just read about. The separator walkthrough above is a page from one: that's how everything is taught.
solutions
Every question comes with a fully worked, interactive solution. Understand the method, not just the answer — no more losing an evening to one question.
recordings
Miss a class or want to revise a tricky idea? Every session is recorded and saved to your own Google Drive, so nothing is ever gone — rewatch any explanation, as many times as you need, right up to the exam.
exam craft
We don't just teach content — we teach the exam. Detailed run-throughs of real past papers, the VCAA traps and marking conventions that quietly cost marks, and timing and technique drilled under exam conditions so the real thing feels familiar.
workshops
Between terms, our intensive Signature Math Holiday Workshops consolidate the hardest topics and get you ahead of the next unit — so you start each term already in front instead of catching up.
support
Ask anything, any time, through our student Discord — a worked answer, not just a hint. Students get private diagnostic calls on their progress, and parents get regular consultations and progress calls, so nothing slips between sessions.
