See what real families are saying about their experience with BrainTree Coaching
The team behind the Braintree Coaching is great. They have provided 10 maths and reading tests free for my child to practice. Only because, we have previously purchased one course from them. Unlike many others who charge hefty fees for everything. Their online tests quality is good, fully automated without any glicth. A timely initiative for those who are seeking this type of help. I wish they will continue to help more and more kids over the coming days.
I highly recommend Braintree Coaching's online test package! It has been instrumental in helping my child prepare for the selective test. The resources are comprehensive and user-friendly, making learning effective. Braintree boosted my child's confidence. We're truly grateful for the support.
Braintree's HAST Year 9 prep gave my child the confidence and skills to tackle even the toughest questions — truly exam-focused and effective.
We are incredibly thankful to Braintree Coaching for their amazing support in my nephew's HAST Year 8 preparation. After working through all 40 Writing tasks provided, his writing skills and confidence reached a completely new level. Writing truly became the turning point for him. It helped him express his ideas clearly, structure his responses better, and handle the pressure of tough exam conditions. Thanks to Braintree's focused training, mock tests, and detailed feedback, he was able to secure a spot at Girraween High School, even with only 2 seats available this year. It was a very tough competition, and we couldn't have done it without the structured and high-quality support from Braintree. Highly recommended to every parent looking for serious HAST preparation!
We enrolled our son in Braintree's HAST Year 7 preparation course, and we couldn't be happier. The Writing program was a real highlight, the feedback was detailed, personalised and helped him sharpen him structure, ideas and grammar. The practice tests for Abstract and Mathematical Reasoning were also extremely well designed and pushed his thinking to the next level. Braintree's content and support gave us a clear roadmap and we saw steady, real improvement. Highly recommended for any parent serious about HAST!
The OC practice questions from Braintree were very similar to the real exam and complex enough to truly challenge kids. It's a great resource for serious preparation — highly recommend it!
Finding the right OC preparation was not easy. We tried a few options before settling with Braintree, and I can honestly say it was the best choice we made. The accuracy of the questions, the focus on real exam techniques, and the way they built my son's confidence were outstanding. Getting that acceptance letter was one of the proudest moments for our family. I'm grateful to Braintree for helping us through every step.
