I tutor Primary and Secondary school students, supporting learning across key subjects in line with the Australian Curriculum (ACARA). Lessons are tailored to each student’s year level, learning needs, and school requirements.
My goal is to help students build strong foundations, gain confidence, and develop effective learning habits that support long-term success at school.
NAPLAN Preparation (Years 3, 5, 7 & 9)
NAPLAN can be challenging for students and stressful for families. I offer targeted NAPLAN preparation aligned with ACARA standards, helping students feel confident, prepared, and familiar with the test format. Past Naplan tests can be found at the Resources page of Naplan Website here.
Our tutoring focuses on building the skills assessed in NAPLAN while reinforcing everyday classroom learning.
