Vocational Tutors
'TAFE at School' and vocational programs create so many opportunities for students that don't want to go to university. Our private tutors understand that not all children are focused on getting into university. Our vocational tutoring helps your child achieve two important milestones - high school graduate and TAFE Certificate holder. As Australia continues to align its curriculum, we assist students to gain their QCE, HSC, VCE, SACE, WACE, and ACTC while helping them to study the vocational coursework through the TAFE at School program. We believe that every child, given the right support and strategy can achieve their goals. We work with your child to overcome their unique barriers and to develop the right mindset for learning. There's no greater feeling than landing a job in the field of your choice Our tutors are here to make it happen.

What's the Difference? SSCE, QCE, HSC, VCE, SACE, WACE, ACTC, and ATAR
The Senior Secondary Certificate of Education is the standard term for a "High School Graduate" certification in Australia. Despite Australia's movement towards a national curriculum, Australian states each have their own certification terminology. ATAR is the national standard for entry into universities in Australia, similar to the SAT Test in the USA. ATAR (Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank) subjects studied in any state contribute to a student's performance on a national level. ATAR is not a high school certificate, rather a ranking system for university admission.
In New South Wales, the senior certificate is referred to as HSC (High School Certificate) in Queensland it's the QCE (Queensland Certificate of Education) and in Victoria, it's the VCE (Victorian Certificate of Education). In South Australia, it's the South Australia Certificate of Education (SACE), Western Australia has the Western Australia Certificate of Education (WACE), and the ACT has the Australian Capital Territory Year 12 Certificate.
For early school leavers, the Senior Studies Certificate of Education can be attained through the Australian TAFE system or university entrance may be based on Certificate Level studies in your chosen field. Yes, the move to a National Curriculum is happening, but in the meantime, there's a lot of jargon for parents and adult learners to sift through. Yes, it's overwhelming, but your Senior Certificate, no matter what it's called, is a truly rewarding accomplishment. We're here to help you make it happen.

... What Our Clients Have To Say ...
Not only do the team at A-Team improve grades, they also focus on the underlying skills and qualities of character required to continue on the right path in life.
My daughter Maddie was really impressed with her first session with her tutor, 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.
Their approach to working with young people as extremely professional and very much focused on the individual needs and circumstances of each child. A Team is focused on delivering the best possible outcomes to all students irrespective of their academic ability and are well versed in supporting children within the Out Of Home Care sector.
I wanted to write and tell you how impressed I have been with Abbey and how she has instilled confidence in my daughter, Alexandra, in maths. Abbey’s approach to the sessions and subject has been a perfect match for Alexandra and if she needs any assistance in the future, I will certainly be in touch. Many thanks to the whole A Team Tuition team for such a professional and well run organisation.
“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.”
