STUDENT TRANSFORMATIONS
We Get Your Challenges
Constant Communication, Constant Support
One of the fundamental principles of our approach to tutoring is the “child’s support network”. Your child needs the support and influence of the school, teachers, peers, parents, and tutors to thrive. This means additional support from tutors to support:
- Empowering your child with academic strategies
- Building metacognitive skills
- Overseeing homework and study
- Acting as a cheerleader
- Providing positive influence
- Providing mentoring
Our Transformer Program at Good News
A Team Tuition provides Good News Lutheran College with highly engaging and effective tutoring assistance before and after school. The tutoring provides academic and metacognitive support to selected students from Grade 4 - Year 11. The program is in place to improve your child’s confidence, motivation, and grades by developing their mindset, strategy, and even more support.
The Academic Personal Trainers deliver the A Team Advantage program with the students in Years 7-9. This focuses on empowering students with the metacognitive and academic skills to succeed.
Students in Years 4-11 receive homework and subject specific support from the Academic Personal Trainers. The A Team Tuition tutoring approach supports the curriculum students are covering in classes while also building on other skills your child needs to succeed.

... What Our Clients Have To Say ...
“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.”
“Jasiel was very apprehensive initially, our APT encouraged Jasiel to speak about her math concerns and Jasiel soon felt a level of trust. The way our APT explained the concepts and encouraged Jasiel to participate was great and received by her very quickly. Our APT has a great approach, very warm, friendly and funny. He spoke about his love for math and his current studies which Jasiel was quite impressed with. I can see why you mainly use University students.
Jasiel is actually looking forward to ongoing sessions with her APT, he gave her such a boost to her confidence which has been so low, he didn’t question her lack of understanding or belittle her, he was so encouraging and supportive. He gave her tips, let her know what to put in her math workbook when she has her exam next week – a few “don’t forget” points. He was brilliant. After what I saw last night, I’m looking forward to seeing the end result in her overall school, study, motivation and confidence.”
“I’m so happy to chat with you about Charlie and Zack’s sessions. Our Academic Personal Trainer, Zack, has been fantastic. Charlie is getting a lot out of each session and most importantly his confidence is growing, which was my main reason for seeking out tutoring after being so unwell last term and missing more than half a term of schooling. Zack really connects with Charlie and supports him in his learning, confidence and planning ahead. I will definitely be continuing with Zack for the rest of this year and next year! He really is a great fit for Charlie.”
“My son described his first session with his Academic Personal Trainer, Eric, as “awesome”! He was on such a high afterwards. He was thrilled with the way Eric explained a maths concept advising that he taught him in a way that he really understood and my son is really excited about plans they have made together for his English. After the session with Eric, he continued to consolidate what he had learnt in prep and then was returning to study more that night on geography. Doug and I were so happy to hear all of this. Thank you so much. Sounds like we are off to a great start!”
“I share my deep gratitude to your team. Our son Hudson is flourishing! His step is lighter, he laughs, and his confidence within himself is growing. This is all because of Mitch! Mitch has built a safe learning relationship and Hudson is thriving! Thank you!
Hudson thinks Mitch is a Legend! We are so grateful to Mitch, your team and so happy for Hudson.”
