NEW SERVICE

Small Group Tutoring

Small group tutoring is suited to students who can work well with others, are not easily distracted and need a little extra assistance to understand Math or English concepts. We will assess each child to find their weaknesses and strengths in a particular subject. We will then design group lessons targeting concepts that the whole group needs to revise, with some differentiation of lessons occurring depending on student skills. Unfortunately, group tutoring does not allow time for working on individual projects or helping with homework (unless the session is a specific homework help session). If your child needs a more customised learning plan and individual attention, please talk to us about paired or one-on-one sessions. Be quick, only 4 children can enrol in each session!
