How VCE Practice works
A quick guide for students and parents. Anything unanswered here — email support@yochen.com.au and a human replies.
Getting access
- 1Sign in with the Google account you'll always use, then tell us whether you're the student or a parent or guardian.
- 2Students start straight away — no waiting. You get the free sample: the first 3 questions in each subject. Parent accounts are reviewed by hand before we approve them.
- 3A parent subscription unlocks the full question bank and the AI tutor. If a parent added you by email, you're linked to them automatically the first time you sign in.
For students
- Practise — pick any question from the bank. Short-answer answers are checked by a maths engine, so an equivalent form (factorised vs expanded) still counts as correct.
- The tutor guides, it doesn't tell — it asks the next question instead of handing over the answer, and it has a computer-algebra system for checking its maths. The tutor is part of a subscription, and there's a daily message limit to keep you practising, not chatting.
- Progress tracks your mastery of each individual skill — not one overall percentage — so you can see exactly where marks are leaking.
- Plan turns your mastery into a weekly focus list: what to drill, what to review, what to explore next.
For parents
Parents hold the family account: you can link your children and follow each one's progress. Parent accounts don't practise — they watch and support.
- 1Sign in with Google and wait for approval — parent accounts are approved by our team.
- 2Open “Students” in the menu and add your child using the Google email they sign in with.
- 3That's it — the first time your child signs in with that email, they're linked to you and approved automatically. No codes, no forms.
- 4Click a linked student any time to see their mastery per skill and their weekly plan.
Linking — the fine print
- Matching is by the exact Google email. If your child signs in with a different address, nothing links — re-invite with the address they actually use, or have them sign in with the invited one.
- Until your child signs in, the invite shows as “invited — not signed in yet”.
- Both parents can add the same student; each gets their own view.
Common questions
Google won't let me sign in (“access blocked” or error 403).
You're probably inside an in-app browser (WeChat, Instagram, Messenger). Open practice.yochen.com.au in Safari or Chrome and it will work.
The tutor stopped replying.
There's a daily message limit per student. It resets each day — and it's a nudge to go practise what you discussed.
I think a question or answer is wrong.
Every numeric and algebraic answer in our short-answer questions is machine-verified before publishing. If something still looks off, email us.
