Guildford Grammar School
School Partnership
Our Commitment to Parents
We offer comprehensive assistance to your boarder, not just in academics but also developing mindset, motivation, and a genuine enthusiasm for learning.
Guildford Grammar School has partnered with A Team Tuition to be the preferred provider for tutoring for your family. This partnership has come from recognising the increase in the number of parents requesting tutors within the school and supporting GGS's mission to inspire students to achieve personal excellence.
A Team Tuition tutors are employed by A Team after passing a rigorous 4-stage recruitment process and 2-day training program. All tutors are reference checked, WWCC and Police checked with Guildford Grammar having full visibility of your tutor's details.
Once your program is confirmed with A Team Tuition, you will receive a session summary detailing each of the sessions your child has with their tutor. In addition, your family is allocated a Client Support Manager who will support and nurture your family throughout the program.
A Team Tuition is partnered with the Australian Boarding Schools Association and work hand in hand with Guildford Grammar School to ensure that tutors are aligned with your child's assessments and curriculum. Tutoring will be delivered online for boarders in all year levels and across all subjects.
Help your child meet their full potential!
Consistent Communication and Support
We align with Guildford Grammar School's mission and believe that students have agency in their own learning. Tutoring support can help your child develop the mindset, confidence, and strategies that will allow them to not only achieve personal excellence, but become outstanding citizens.
One of the fundamental principles of our approach to tutoring is the “child’s support network”. In a boarding house, this means additional support from tutors to support their network:
- Individualised academic assistance
- Providing study skills and techniques
- Mentoring
- Acting as a cheerleader
- Overseeing homework and study outside of class time
- Assisting in navigating social and emotional situations
We liaise with your child’s support network to ensure there are no gaps and provide feedback and communication with the whole network – so your child’s educational needs are seamlessly met.
Our Academic Advantage Program at Guildford Grammar
We provide Guildford Grammar Boarders with highly engaging and effective tutoring assistance.
The Academic Advantage program is provided to Year 7 & 8 Students. The program is carefully tailored to improve your child’s confidence, motivation, and grades by developing their mindset, strategy, and support during their most crucial years. We support students with the school curriculum and provide “A” grade study strategies.
We also provide assistance and mentoring after school in the library for all boarders.

... What Our Clients Have To Say ...
“In respect of Teliah, she has been fabulous. Matthew got his marks and went to a B+ in a subject he had been failing, and his other subject was an A which had been a B that they had been working on.
Teliah herself has been professional, a good communicator, has provided timely feedback and has been on time herself in every event – well presented and once she did the first session well researched in the work she has been attending too with Matty.
She has definitely been a credit to your organisation and has justified the marketing that A Team Tuition has in respect of improvement.”
“I think I was so successful because my study routine and how I approached maths completely changed. I used to have a bad mindset and hated the subject, now I really try my best!”
Jess went from an E to B in Maths in just 8 weeks!
“I wanted to share how wonderful the session was!
I could hear that Miles’ energy level was really high for the whole lesson which really surprised me as I’ve not seen that before when it comes to homework or lessons and especially in the evening. He seemed engaged, chatty and bright.
At the end of the lesson Miles was really proud that he got almost everything that he was tested on correct, and on reviewing his work I could see things that he had previously not understood were now understood.
But the most significant thing was his level of confidence has vastly improved after just one session which I could see quite clearly in his demeanour. He said that he really liked his APT and couldn’t wait till the next session. I am very impressed with our APT’s approach and can’t wait to see the continued progress here.”
“The sessions with Seb’s APT, Devendra, are going really well. For Seb’s first assignment back this semester he got an A which is a great outcome! Seb feels comfortable with Devendra because he is patient, kind and explains things really well to Seb.
My husband & I are very happy with how the tutoring has gone so far & Seb’s better engagement with Maths.”
