WHY A TEAM TUITION?
Our Commitment to Your Child's Transformation
Over the past decade, we've had the honour of celebrating numerous success stories that have filled us with pride. We recognise that every small step towards improvement isn't just about getting better grades; it's about boosting your child's confidence and changing how they view their schoolwork and themselves. We greatly admire the hard work, determination, and persistence demonstrated by these remarkable students on their path to success.
Esther and Sarive
"We had to flee the Democratic Republic of Congo to the Malawi refugee camp so we could be safe from the rebel soldiers."
Since the war in 2003, over one million people have fled from the Democratic Republic of Congo and became refugees, Esther and Sarive were two of them. Today, they have beat all odds. Sarive has completed High School as an 'A' student and is now in University. Esther is continuing to thrive in her final year of school and recently won a Community Spirit Award from the ABC! They are now powering through school and want to help other people go even further.

Naia & Blake
Naia went from C's to A's in Less Than a Semester While Learning with Dyslexia.
Blake’s approach was simple. He knew that Naia’s grades were not a true reflection of his ability, but that Naia just needed someone to help explain the content in a way he understood, and more importantly, someone to believe in him. Once Naia had a genuine belief in his own ability and the conviction that hard work would pay off; his whole approach to school altered. He went from strength to strength, and by the middle of Year 8 had achieved a mix of As and Bs, including an A in English – a simply staggering result for a young man with dyslexia!

Ultimately, Harriett’s work with Tiahna has allowed her to recapture her confidence and grades. After only just passing at the end of Year 11, Harriett is now scoring 95% in Maths Methods, a truly dramatic transformation!

WHAT OUR FAMILIES HAVE TO SAY
“My daughter Maddie was really impressed with her first session with her Academic Personal Trainer, Derek. She said Derek was excellent and there was just no comparison with her last tutor. He is a lovely young man and completely put Maddie at ease. Her mood totally changed between the time before the tutorial to after. Thank you so much, and I can’t wait to see what they accomplish.”
“Our son really liked his Academic Personal Trainer, Zach, and couldn’t believe how quickly the time went by. He said it was 5.20pm before he knew it. He enjoyed the session a lot and asked if he could buy a novel to read last night. He doesn’t ever want to read… let alone buy a book!
Today he went and purchased a book to start working toward his reading goal. Thank you for working with us to get him some help with his learning.”
“Lola is doing Maths Methods this year. She has gone from a C- average in Year 10 to an A+ average so far in Year 11. She is definitely working harder but her APT has helped immensely in restoring her confidence!”
“Archie’s Academic Personal Trainer, Amber, was well organised, communicated clearly and took the time to get to know Archie through the session. Arch is looking forward to his next session with Amber.”
“Thank you so much for matching our new Academic Personal Trainer, Maina, with Harvey. Their first tutoring session was an absolute success. Harvey was really happy and is very excited about the future and what he is going to achieve now at school with Maina as his tutor and mentor. Once again thank you so much we could not be happier.”
“I am sure Jonathan will want to tell his APT, he recently received an A- for his Maths PSMT. This is an amazing turnaround from when he started with A Team Tuition (Term 1 2023). I am very happy for Jonathan to continue!”
“A Team Tuition’s match making skills are spot on. We are really happy with our APT, she is exactly the type of tutor that Harper needs. Harper was really happy and felt supported throughout the whole session. Thank you again for organising that so quickly. We have received nothing but exemplary support from the A Team Tuition team.”
“I am very impressed with our Academic Personal Trainer, Elaine, and her approach, and we are grateful for her detailed feedback. I actually mentioned to my husband that this is more concrete and helpful feedback than we have ever received from his teachers. I definitely recognise my son in her comments and think that her observations were spot on. In particular, that he struggles with inferences and that his problem-solving approach could be simplified.
My son worked really well with her and I think that he can learn a lot from Elaine! We are looking forward to the next session”
“Oh my god, I thought this was too good to be true! I am over the moon with A Team Tuition and our APT, James. He and Jason hit it off really well and my son’s confidence has already improved. His body language has changed and instead of struggling with him to get out of the car for school today, he jumped out and was happy to go inside. All it took was one person to sit with him one on one and give him praise, teach him, to change everything for him!
A weight has been lifted from my shoulders thanks to A Team Tuition & James.”
“I initially engaged with A Team Tuition before Matthew’s exams as he was struggling with some key concepts in his hardest subject and despite being a high achiever this was really impacting not just on his marks and confidence but on him as a person.
Teliah was assigned to Matthew and in two short weeks during his Transformation Program, he went from a C to a B+ in the hardest strain of mathematics, but also regained his confidence. The change in him is remarkable, he is now more focused on assignments, will get an awesome ATAR result and is working the hardest he ever has.
I am sure there are cheaper options than A Team Tuition, but to me this is one of the best investments I have ever made and has changed Matthew’s outlook, options and no doubt future academic and professional life.
I can’t recommend A Team Tuition enough, and having spoken to other parents can safely say that our result is the normal outcome as opposed to an outlier.”
Paige & Jane

Cecelia & Michaela
Cecelia Has Gone from D's to B's in Just Six Months!
Cecilia's Mum, Lizzy, called in Academic Personal Trainer, Michaela to help CC get through her homework, assignments, and exams. Michaela could tell that CC lacked the confidence she needed to fully embrace study. She had the "I can't" attitude and that, more than anything was holding her back. Michaela began by working on CC's confidence, helping her to adjust the way she thought about her school work and how she related to the curriculum. That is what started CC's journey towards amazing academic achievement!

- Renee, Sam's Mum
Ethan & Brittany
Ethan Transformed His Confidence and Went to Primarily A Grades!
Ethan was on straight B's for all of his subjects, but his mother Sharon knew that he could achieve even more. Like so many students before him, Ethan was an incredibly talented young man, who had everything he needed to accomplish wondrous things - except the ability to see that his own potential.
"As with most Year 8 students, motivation was definitely hard for Ethan to maintain at times - which is totally normal, and had to be accepted for transformation to take place!" Britt remarked. "I accommodated for this, by ensuring that each session was inviting and fun for Ethan, rather than simply sitting down and doing work in a way that was boring to him."
Ava & Jess
Ava Worked Hard to Go From a B- to A+ in One Month!
When Ava received a B- on her Semester 1 report, her family decided to get her some personalised tutoring because she was determined to raise her grade to an A.
Ava's tutor, Jess, discovered that Ava’s greatest struggle was remembering the content taught through effective means. Because of this, Jess thought it would be perfect to first find out Ava’s learning language – a key element to the effective and efficient learning of an individual. She found that Ava was an auditory learner and worked with her to use this as a strategy and get her to an A!
Ruby & Ellie
Ruby Went Through A Huge Transformation in Both Her Grades and Confidence!
Ruby was overjoyed to start tutoring and "really wanted to learn new skills to improve her grades.” After starting with Ellie, Ruby moulded her learning according to the STAR program that Ellie utilised, which included changing her classroom structure and seating, the way she asked questions, and her assessment planning process.
For Ellie, though, the main focus was providing the perfect environment for Ruby to feel supported, cared for, and comfortable!
Chloe & Rimaz

Rimaz then tailored the tutoring sessions to meet Chloe’s academic needs and everything clicked into place!
