LEARN HOW A STRUGGLING STUDENT LIFTED HER GRADES FROM A C+ TO AN A-
USING THIS PROVEN, EASY-TO-UNDERSTAND SELF-TUTORING PACKAGE.
From: Michael Milford, _PhD_
Dear Parents,
How your kids perform at school can affect their entire lives.
Almost all students struggle academically at some stage in their
schooling, but it is what happens then that can become one of the
defining moments of their lives.
I'm here to tell you about a new and COMPLETELY UNIQUE EDUCATIONAL
SOLUTION which feedback from more than 5000 students has helped
develop into an effective and easy-to-use resource. And best of all,
it costs less than a family trip to the movies.
Since you're doing me the favour of reading my letter to you, I'll
return it by making this letter concise and to the point. I'm going to
show you WHY HELPING YOUR CHILD IS SO VITALLY IMPORTANT TO THEIR
FUTURE SUCCESS IN LIFE, and explain how you can help them right now
for a trivial cost with a new, completely unique, proven educational
resource.
SCHOOL PERFORMANCE SHAPES MOST STUDENTS\' FUTURE LIVES
Most students will struggle academically at some point during their
schooling. How they overcome (or not) these challenges becomes
defining moments that shape the rest of their lives.
If you as their parents can help or guide them to overcome their
academic difficulties, they become memorable successes which give them
the confidence to overcome the next obstacle they face.
Students who get frustrated and are not given the help or support
they require however, often suffer declining grades, loss of
motivation, and general unhappiness. Their poor marks then limit the
choices they have in life.
MARKS AREN\'T EVERYTHING...BUT THEY SURE COUNT FOR A LOT
Now don't get me wrong here. I'm not saying marks are everything,
and there are plenty of exceptions that people always like to quote
when the academics are getting too snobby.
But the fact of the matter is that MORE THAN 60% OF STUDENTS WILL
ENTER SOME FORM OF TERTIARY STUDY (university, tafe, technical
college). And to get into the courses they want, they need to get
decent grades. Not to mention the associated confidence gains from
succeeding at school work, rather than crashing and burning time and
time again.
CONFIDENCE AND IMPROVED GRADES
I want to share with you a couple of brief stories demonstrating how
Complete School has changed students' lives. But rather than
paraphrase their stories myself, you can read their own words:
_MICHAEL, STUDENT: _"I have been struggling in maths all my life as
I missed out on the basics in primary school as a result of changing
schools. I would like to take this time just too sincerely thankyou
for going out of your way to produce something (Complete School) that
has and will help people, like myself, who have been struggling. You
have given me new found energy to wake up in the morning and go to
school and maths in particular. Thankyou."
_TARA, STUDENT: _"Thankyou so much for showing me an easier way to
understand Algebra and Trig, your book (Complete School) is easy to
follow and explains what my teachers don't, I was struggling to
understand and asking my teachers got me no where, my mum got your CD
and Book and now I have gone from a C+ to a A- for extended Maths.
Even my Teachers are asking me about your book.!...a big Thankyou"
Tara is the student I refer to in the line at the top of this
webpage. But I receive feedback like these regularly from lots of
other students, and they never fail to give me a feeling of deep
satisfaction that I have helped someone TURN THEIR ACADEMIC STRUGGLE
INTO ACADEMIC SUCCESS.
A STUDENT UNDERSTANDS ANOTHER STUDENT BETTER THAN ANY TEACHER OR
TEXTBOOK
Which sounds more effective to you:
* a teacher trying to imagine why a problem is challenging for a
student, in order to work out how best to help that student, or
* a recent student who has just been through the system themself
using their own experience, as well as the experience of hundreds of
classmates to help that student?
Complete School was created over a period of five years starting
just after I finished school myself. I still remember exactly WHY
students struggled with challenging topics - such as algebra,
trigonometry, calculus, probability - and what EXPLANATIONS HELPED US
UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPTS THE BEST.
I know the TECHNIQUES THAT STUDENTS FOUND MOST EFFECTIVE FOR SOLVING
PROBLEMS. I remember the AVOIDABLE MISTAKES that students made the
most, and how they managed to avoid making those mistakes ever again.
In short, Complete School is unique because it is written entirely
from the STUDENT PERSPECTIVE. Much of the most effective learning in
schools isn't from teachers or textbooks, but from those informal
conversations between students.
In fact, that is exactly what Complete School does - it GIVES THE
INFORMAL HELP THAT OTHER STUDENTS NORMALLY PROVIDE. But it represents
the cream of the crop - the best explanations, techniques, and tips,
as picked by thousands of students.
STUDENT FRIENDLY TECHNIQUES COMBINED WITH TOP LEVEL ACADEMIC
PRESENTATION
The student friendly nature of Complete School already makes it more
effective than many formal, stiff textbooks and old teachers. However,
Complete School is also built on a basis of academic excellence which
few if any teachers of software authors can claim to match.
The skills and experience I've gained from achieving at the highest
level are transferred into the book and on to the student. In brief,
some of these achievements are:
* 14 journal and conference papers and an upcoming book published
by the academic publisher Springer
* Awarded a PhD doctorate at age 24
* 2007 Young Queenslander of the Year Finalist
* 2006 Queensland Young Achiever (Science and Technology)
* $2000 Australian Students Prize for excellence at school
* OP 1 top tertiary entrance score out of high school
* Top 0.25% Award for the Queensland Core Skills Test
* Selected and attended the Australian National Mathematics Summer
School
It's always a little worrying when a teacher or programmer of a
software tutoring package is trying to teach academic excellence when
they themselves may have barely scraped through the system. Complete
School is built on a foundation of academic excellence.
WHY IS COMPLETE SCHOOL SO CHEAP...ARE MORE EXPENSIVE PROGRAMS BETTER?
This is a common misconception when comparing products with
different prices. The answer is quite simple. Because I developed,
produced, and publicised Complete School mostly by myself, I have none
of the expensive overheads of commercial products.
* They have to pay commission to sales people.
* They have to spend big money on advertising.
* They have to cover the significant number of refund requests they
get because people feel ripped off by their products costing thousands
of dollars.
Some companies claim their product is affordable because all they
care about is the customer being happy. These companies are generally
either blatantly lying, or go broke after a few months.
I run an educational publishing business, and one aspect of it is
most definitely to provide some extra spending money on top of my day
job. But I also thoroughly enjoy helping students and get much
satisfaction out of it. Complete School is low cost because:
* I have very low overhead costs: no marketing, no expensive
advertising, only one refund request to date (the customer got
confused and bought the wrong product)
* I get satisfaction out of helping students so that offsets the
need to make money
* Delivering a digital product allows me to cut costs significantly
(you can get it in hardcopy form here [7]).
MASTER HIGH SCHOOL MATH AND ENGLISH FOR LESS THAN THE PRICE OF TWO
MOVIE TICKETS
So what is the price of the Complete School ebooks? It's a once-off
payment (no recurring fees, no subscription required), of only:
$25 USD
(that's about 30 Australian Dollars)
SO WHAT EXACTLY IS IN THE COMPLETE SCHOOL PACKAGE?
The most popular version of Complete School is the Complete School
ebook package. In this package, you get two 600 page ebooks, covering
Math and English, which you can view on your computer, or print
chapters from on your printer. You also get a bonus Megamath poster
download, which is a double-sided poster with study notes for 32 of
the most important topics in Math.
To view the ebooks on your computer all you need is the freely
available Adobe Reader software, which can be found here [8]. THEY CAN
BE VIEWED ON ANY COMPUTER SYSTEM - WINDOWS, MAC, OR LINUX.
You can view the table of contents for the ebooks using the links

ENGLISH TABLE OF CONTENTS [11]
HOW DOES MY CHILD USE COMPLETE SCHOOL?
Using Complete School is simple and quick. Chapters are usually only
a few pages long, which means they can be read once in a few minutes,
and then reread as required. Your child doesn't have to spend hours
wading through huge, hard to read textbook chapters.
Because it's not a software package, you can print out the relevant
chapters and stop your child's eyes from going short-sighted looking
at a computer screen for hours on end.
Each chapter typically starts with an EXPLANATION OF THE TOPIC,
followed by a TYPICAL QUESTION(S) for the topic and a FULLY WORKED
SOLUTION showing the TECHNIQUE FOR SOLVING the question. There are
also handy hints all through the book on common mistakes, time saving
techniques and other useful advice.
CAN I TRY SOME FREE SAMPLES?
Many educational products out there, especially some of the higher
priced software packages, don't allow you to try before you buy. I've
made several sample chapters from Complete School available here so
you can try them without any financial committment.

WHAT ARE THE KEY BENEFITS AND FEATURES AGAIN?
1. AN EDUCATIONAL RESOURCE THAT TEACHES FROM THE STUDENT PERSPECTIVE
USING EASY-TO-UNDERSTAND EXPLANATIONS, WRITTEN BY A REAL PERSON. Many
web-sites sell products written by so called 'gurus' but there doesn't
seem to be any hard, real-life evidence. Just look at these media
articles (you can click on them to view them in more detail):
[20]
2. PROVEN RESULTS AND HAPPY CUSTOMERS. I have sold more than 5000
educational books around the world. Testimonials from my customers
show my products are good:
_BELINDA, STUDENT:_ "I recently purchased your book and absolutely
love it. I don't know what I would have done without it. I only wish
that I had it last year in Year 11."
_IOANA:_ "Highly recommended, best gift any parent can give their
kids...Excellent buy A++"
_ADALBERTO:_ "Great product. My favorite subject. Easy download,
will enjoy for a long time."
_BRENDA:_ "Do not hesitate to purchase the study aids! Easy to
use!!"
_MARTIE:_ "Excellent product, very impressed, boys loving it"
_STEPHEN:_ "Excellent study product! My daughter loves it!"
TEACHERS LOVE COMPLETE SCHOOL TOO:
ROD, UPPER PRIMARY TEACHER:
...Although the package is aimed primarily at the High School
student there are enough topics covered to be of great value to the
Upper Primary sector.
One of the most pleasing aspects of the books is the spacious layout
and larger font size used to make reading much easier.
The explanations and examples given are extremely easy to follow and
should provide no difficulties for any student or adult wishing to
extend their knowledge of Maths or English... I can say with certainty
that anyone who purchases this package will not be disappointed. It is
FANTASTIC.
Thankyou Michael.
3. THE STUDENT-FRIENDLY FORMAT. Unlike 99% of products, Complete
School is written from the perspective of a student, for students. No
stuffy formal explanations from 60-year-old professors or teachers
here.
4. A LOW, ONCE OFF PRICE OF ONLY $25 US DOLLARS. No membership fees
or ongoing costs. That's less than you'd pay for one hour of tutoring.
And it covers topics for all of high school. Compare that cost to the
hundreds or thousands of dollars that some companies charge.
5. VALUE FOR MONEY. You get two 600 page ebooks and a poster, all
written by myself. Explanations, sample questions with fully worked
solutions, handy hints, common mistakes to avoid, proven
techniques...it's all here, for hundreds of Math and English topics.
6. A 7 DAY MONEY BACK GUARANTEE WHICH IS EASY TO CLAIM. All you need
to do is e-mail your request for a refund to the following e-mail

Your payment is processed through their secure server and is very

Q. _All I'm after is some practice questions - is Complete School
the product for me?_
A. Complete School has fully illustrated solutions to typical
questions at the end of each topic, but not large amounts of practice

becoming a 5000 page monster book. The Complete School philosophy is
that once you completely understand a topic, that's most of the
battle. There are lots of practice questions on the Internet you can
use, such as at this site [24].
