Our Approach

What our families are saying

"I am so happy to have found this learning centre. My son is 5 and struggled to engage or read any sight words. We are now at our 5th lesson and he has learnt his alphabet and can read approximately 15-20 sight words. Thank you James and Seline for your walm welcome and making learning an enjoyable space."

Alexia

Currans Hill, NSW

"Previous tutors used to have my daughter just work on her homework, which she never really struggled with anyway. However, James focuses on the areas where she lacks confidence instead of where she already excels. Since she's a shy girl, this approach is making a huge difference for her at school."

Stephen

Camden, NSW

"James and Seline have such infectious energy and enthusiasm. From my son's first tutoring lesson, James' warmth and accommodating nature made a lasting impression on us. Even my husband, who is notoriously hard to please, has been genuinely impressed."

Sophia

Narellan, NSW

"My daughter used to dread tutoring lessons, but then we met James, and now she can't wait for her next one. I've seen a remarkable improvement in my daughter's confidence and participation at school ever since."
