What we cover

Two very different
stages of school.

Year 4 and Year 9 need opposite things.

Years 3–6 · Primary

Building the ground floor

Habits first: show your working, check the answer, have a go at the hard one.

  • Number & place value
  • Fractions
  • Reading comprehension
  • Writing structure
  • Spelling
  • NAPLAN familiarity
Years 7–10 · High school

Staying ahead of the topic test

Keep pace with class. Patch the gaps underneath it.

  • Algebra
  • Geometry & trig
  • Essay writing
  • Text analysis
  • Junior science
  • Exam technique

one thing to practise each week — not twenty

How it works

Three steps, then
we're underway.

Nothing to sign. First session free.

no lock-in, no term packages

1

A free chat, and a look at their work

We find where the gap actually starts — usually a year or two before the topic causing trouble.

2

A plan for the term

One page. What we're fixing, in what order, and what better looks like by December.

3

Weekly lessons, weekly notes

Same time each week, plus a few lines from me on what clicked and what to practise.

Online or in person

Same lesson. Your choice of room.

same fee either way

Live

A shared whiteboard

We write on the same page at the same time. I see the working as it happens.

Afterwards

The board, saved as a PDF

No more "I lost the sheet" the night before a test.

Easier weeks

No driving, no rushed dinner

Good for sport seasons, sick days, and families outside Sydney.

A big centre gave us twelve kids and one worksheet. This is the opposite.
