The Official Academic Support Experts of The Australian Boarding Schools Association (ABSA)
As proud partners of the Australian Boarding Schools Association, we provide customised, student-focused boarding school tutoring during ‘boarding prep’ hours. Our energetic tutors engage your boarders in active learning, creating a mindset and cultural change, not just “two more hours of school”.
We must warn you – your students may ACTUALLY ENJOY boarding prep!
Our boarding school tutoring service is an Australian first
Our tutoring service is unlike anything ever seen before in Australian boarding schools. We step in to provide the support and motivation formerly provided to boarding students by parents. The right support is a key pillar of a child’s success. Parents choose you for an enhanced and superior educational experience for their children. We partner with your school to deliver on that promise.
We understand your challenges
We work closely with schools every day and are the only tutoring partner of the Australian Boarding School Association (ABSA). We work closely with ABSA and our schools to understand the challenges of boarding and deliver proven solutions.
- Your boarders’ wellbeing and academic achievements are your top priority.
- Your school provides an essential service to families across Australia, and the world. You rise to this responsibility despite the challenges.
- Boarder prep hours can be challenging to staff consistently.

... What Our Clients Have To Say ...
Before Belle’s first tutoring session she was a little anxious and kept asking me “what will I ask her?”….”what will she do?”. After their first session, Belle is upbeat, positive, calmer and feels Jessica is a perfect match for her saying, “she’s just like me”. Thank you so much for making the effort to match tutors based on personalities; it makes all the difference.
“Our tutors, Jake and Bodi are very well matched to both of our boys. My sons were so happy that all of their goal setting was done in the first session and I am really looking forward to seeing how the boys respond throughout the term!”
Alongside greatly encouraging improvement in his academic results, the most outstanding and important outcome has been enhancement of his self-motivation and drive, and even more importantly, development of his self-confidence.
“Everyone comments on her confidence.”
“Cecelia has never passed English before so we’re really celebrating this C. The teacher said that she’s on course for a B this term and everyone, her teacher, her teacher’s aide and her reading group leader – they’ve all said she’s far more confident, putting her opinion out there, and finally feeling brave enough to read out loud. This has been a big celebration in our house.”
Hayley has been having wonderful sessions with her tutor Mia and she is extremely happy to have her as her tutor. Haley has been very positive and very motivated and definitely feels lucky to have found Mia to help her!
