THE 'A' TEAM
We work together with you, your child, your tutor and your school to form a network of educational support centred around your child's tuition.
YOUR CHILD IS UNIQUE
By assessing your child’s learning styles, strengths and personal interests; we develop an individualised program to begin building confidence and conquering weaknesses.
EMPOWERING PARENTS
Our number one goal is to provide you with the support, resources and know-how you've always wanted, so that now you will be empowered to have positive influence over your child's academic future!
IN HOME TUTORING
If you suspected that one-on-one coaching is the most effective form of personal tuition; you were right! To minimize distractions and maximise convenience, your private tutor can come to your home in Sydney for one-on-one "learning time" whenever suits your busy schedule.
MAKING SENSE
One of the biggest frustrations a young learner faces is when their school work feels "too hard." Our expert tutors are trained to use communication strategies designed to help your child make sense of their school work so that it becomes easy to understand.
LEARNING STYLES
Some children learn best by using "hands-on" models and practical approaches. Others learn better through pictures, diagrams, numbers or words. What is your child's strongest learning style?
BUILDING CONFIDENCE
Imagine how much more autonomously your child will approach their school work once they gain confidence towards it. Your tutor will use confidence building strategies as a powerful motivational tool so that your child will not only perform better at school, they'll love doing it!
ENGAGED LEARNING
A young leaner's mind will function more effectively when it is engaged in learning. Engaged learning is our area of specialty, and is the key to improving attitudes towards school work. What stimulates your child's interest the most?
THINKING SKILLS
Your tutor will emphasise the importance of developing Higher Order Thinking Skills to deepen your child's understanding of everything they learn about.
MATHS TUITION
Mathematics is about more than just numeracy; it is about using logic and sequential processes to solve problems. We offer Maths tutors, Sydney wide as well as surrounding suburbs.
ENGLISH TUITION
English tuition is about more than just literacy; it's about communication and using words to build, demonstrate and transfer understanding.
PRIMARY TUITION
Primary school forms the foundation upon which our children's secondary and tertiary education will stand.

INDIVIDUALISED : WHAT ARE YOUR GOALS?
Some parents decide to hire a tutor because their child is struggling to keep up in certain areas of school work. Others are already keeping up and want to excel even more. Many students may be struggling in some areas whilst excelling in others. A lot of parents are busy providing for their family and want to rest assure that their children's future is in the best hands.

You'll have your own personal support team to keep you up to date with every bit of progress and ask for your guidance on anything you wish to contribute. We place you in the drivers seat at all times, in a way that the school system can not. How do we do that exactly? Read below to find out...
EMPOWERING PARENTS

This is important to to ensure that your child's home tutoring content follows the classroom curriculum and stays directly relevant to your child's school work. Know More...
WHY IS 'IN-HOME' PRIVATE TUITION SO IMPORTANT?
"In home tutoring" is not only the most convenient form of private tuition, but allows greater communication between tutors and parents. The home is a familiar, comfortable learning environment for after school tuition. At home tutoring therefore eliminates the stress and distractions associated with class room environments, including after-school tuition centres. If your home at Sydney doesn't suit you however, you can always negotiate a neutral location which supports a comfortable learning environment. Know More...
WHICH ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT SKILLS?
Learning is about much more than just remembering information. Our professional home tutors will focus on the most important skills your child will need for a strong academic future. Your child's private tutor will focus heavily on literacy skills and other competencies they'll need to achieve the highest possible assessment scores. These include exam taking strategies, essay writing techniques, report writing skills and especially Higher Order Thinking. Most importantly, they'll do so in a way that's specifically tailored to your child’s level of schooling. Know More...
HIGHER ORDER THINKING SKILLS - WHY ARE THEY SO IMPORTANT?
Our expert private tutors are also trained to develop your child’s Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) for a very good reason. Why are these skills so important? Because they are the specific cognitive abilities that Educational Psychologists have identified as benchmarks of academic achievement and intellectual success. Higher Order Thinking Skills are examined by school assessors (especially at HSC level) to differentiate high achievers from the rest. Why? Because in the professional word; these thinking skills determine the difference between those who follow, and those who are followed. Know More...
TECHNOLOGY IS THE WAY OF THE FUTURE
Because of the crucial importance that technology will play in our children's future, your child's home tutoring program will focus on developing IT skills by emphasising computer based educational resources. This will not only strengthen their technology skills, but it's is a great way to make learning more fun, interactive and engaging! Know More...
COMMUNICATION - THE KEY TO 'MAKING SENSE'
Your child's private tutor will apply constructivist teaching techniques to ensure that information is communicated in a way that is easily understood. Constructivism allows new information to make sense easily by building gradually on the learners existing knowledge. When your child is able to make better sense of what they are learning, they will not only learn faster but feel more confident and more 'connected' with what they are learning about. Know More...
THE 'EMOTIONAL ADVANTAGE' OF PRIVATE TUITION SYDNEY
Private tutoring should be more than just 'teaching'. Good private tutors provide teaching, as well as coaching, mentoring, motivation and inspiration. A parent understands that the way their child feels towards something will govern how they think about it, and therefore what they do about it. We understand how crucial these factors are when it comes to school work and learning activities. This is why your private tutor will focus on the emotional aspects of your child's learning, described below:
Strengths: Your child's private tutor will identify his or her personal strengths and learning styles to overcome barriers of fear whilst developing and capitalising on new strengths. Know More...
Passion: Your child's private tutor will identify his or her interests to make learning more personally relevant, more engaging and more fun. Know More...
Confidence: Your child's private tutor will use strategic goal setting techniques to direct his or her focus on their progress whilst gradually building confidence towards areas they were previously struggling with. Know More...
Autonomy: Your child's private tutor will teach him or her how to use reflective practice skills to learn from mistakes more efficiently whilst conditioning an 'auto correction' pattern to learn more autonomously. Know More...
