About Seung

My name is Seung.

I have been helping students achieve their dream results, all over NSW and more recently in the Gosford area for over 10 years. I am a fully qualified high school Mathematics teacher currently working at a high school on the Central Coast, and I have a passion, a gift, and the experience for helping students to understand the often daunting world of Mathematics.

My teaching experience has taken me to all types of schools that are diverse in ethnicity, culture, social status, abilities and talents: from the very top selective and private schools in the state to outback country schools.

This wasn’t always the case, after making many a career choice that didn’t bring me the fulfillment I was searching for, I found my calling in continuing a legacy that goes back to the generation before me.

A LEGACY THAT LIVES ON

SKY Academy was founded by my father. As a matter of fact, “SKY” is my father’s initials: Su-kil Yi. He started the academy in the 1980, with the primary aim to teach Maths; initially to students of the growing Korean community in Sydney which then grew to include all students in the local areas he operated.

With a method and philosophy based around heavily monitored self paced mastery, and building on well laid foundations, he often achieved results for his students that even they could not believe. Many went on to high paying and very illustrious careers and the difference that having the right method and support, at the right time in their lives, has made a profound difference to them.

I take pride in continuing that legacy. In 2014, I created an eBook entitled, “Does My Child Need A Tutor?” It features an insight into the SKY Academy Methodology. It also explains the 7-Step Method used by the SKY Academy, emphasizing how SKY Academy’s teaching style can be so effective for students undertaking it.

ABOUT SKY ACADEMY

Our obsession at Sky Academy is Mathematics Education. To provide that expertise to those who value, desire and seek it the most. It is well documented that there is an overall decline in our country, as well as globally, in numeracy and the level of interest in Mathematics
by students in our schooling systems. We are really concerned with the growing trend of students who opt out of advanced Mathematics courses in their senior years and are committed to reversing this trend.

Sky Academy recognizes that the world is changing far too rapidly. Many are the obstacles young people face today that hinder the engagement and dedication to learning Mathematics.

On the flip side, our modern world presents abundant opportunities for those who embrace it for innovation in the education space.

In this respect, Sky Academy is committed to new and cutting edge paradigm shifts in the delivery of Mathematics education. This, coupled with the best of tried and tested approaches to traditional education, is the answer to preparing young minds with the support and momentum they need to be masters of a brave new global, ever progressing, fast paced, technology-saturated 21st-century environment.

 

OUR VISION

To see every Mathematics student doing the HSC achieve their dream marks and develop to their potential, with sufficient meaningful and cutting edge support.

To empower every Mathematics student to access the widest range of opportunities for the future beyond the HSC and be thoroughly equipped to take advantage of them.

 

OUR VISION

To create, deliver and promote highly effective Mathematics specific programs and products that facilitate deeper understanding, upskill our users for optimal proficiency in Mathematics, to create the unparalleled success that leads to growth in confidence, enthusiasm and the cultivation of winning habits and a champion mindset for mastery of the modern world.
