There’s no shortage of tutoring options in the Hills, which makes choosing one genuinely hard. Before you commit, here are seven questions that quickly sort a great tutor from an average one.
Is the teaching aligned to the NSW curriculum? It should map to actual NESA outcomes, not a pile of generic worksheets pulled from the internet.
How do they measure progress? You want regular check-ins and assessments you can actually see, not a vague promise that things are improving.
What are the group sizes? Small groups are the sweet spot: enough attention to matter, without the cost of one-on-one.
Are the tutors qualified? Ask about their experience and training. It’s a fair question, and a good tutor won’t mind it.
Is there a guarantee? Real confidence in results tends to come with one.
What happens between sessions? An online portal with extra practice keeps learning ticking over all week, not just for an hour.
Will they tell you the truth? The best tutors are honest about what your child actually needs, even when it isn’t what you hoped to hear.
We’re happy to answer all seven, and we back our teaching with a money-back guarantee. Book a free assessment and judge for yourself.
