I will work with you in the initial free consultation/trial (no strings attached) to figure out the best program to support your child's needs.

All come with a free trial and assessment session . Your child can see if it’s a good fit, and I can assess what’s going to be best for them. I’ll do my best to help find the right program for your student’s needs and I have other teachers or colleagues I know who may be able to assist.

ABOUT MY LESSONS

I love working with students of all backgrounds to build their confidence and engagement with learning. Learning isn't one size fits all, and my programs are designed to ensure the students get the right experience for them
‍

I build strong relationships with all my students and provide comfortable and nurturing support for your child's development. Together, I want to work with you to empower your child to become a confident and effective learner. And hopefully we'll all have a lot of fun along the way!

I create engaging and interactive programs that work on:

- Key areas of the curriculum

- Fundamental skills & practice

- Key social skills & learning behaviour

- Helping students build the right learning strategies and frameworks

- Formative assessments to give parents and myself constant insight on a student's progress.

The goal is to create and fun and engaging learning environment that allows the students to thrive and build their confidence and skills.

My approach to teaching focuses on ensuring that students are given access to the highest quality resources, frameworks and approaches to the subject, whilst having a fun, engaging and personalised experience.

I bring a nurturing and warm approach to ensure your child develops the right fundamentals, learning behaviours and strategies to excel.

Students are specially grouped into the right program.

‍I ensure that all my sessions are engaging and interactive, and I focus on tailoring the program to ensure students feel confident and empowered to take on different frameworks and approaches to learning.

My classes are a well-rounded mix of theory, hands-on practice, discussion, activities and individual work, to make sure that everyone gets the most out of the subject, whilst having a bit of fun! The mix depends on the year level, program type and student goals.

The goal of my programs is to help students address their learning needs and achieve the outcomes they want, and I use formative assessments to ensure progress can be accurately measured.

I’d love for your student to come try out my programs no strings attached! See you soon!

Parents

“My son was crying at the idea of needing to going to tutoring. Now that he’s learning with Ms Jodie, he can’t wait to go back every week!” - N, Year 3 Student

“My daughter just clicked with her. I haven't seen her take to any tutor or teacher like this before. Her engagement with learning has increased so much. Since attending her classes she's been writing and reading all by herself. We’ve even started to see it reflect in her grades and confidence just after a few months. She's made my daughter's transition to high school that much easier! Couldn’t recommend more!” - S, Year 7 parent

“We’ve been very impressed by Miss Jodie’s ability to work on the intangibles and fundamentals. We wanted to make sure our daughter had good foundations and frameworks to exceed in learning but also enjoy the process. Her experience and guiding hand has helped our daughter feel more confident and independent than ever in her learning" - T, Year 6 parent
