Our individualised maths tutoring is based on each pupil’s current ability and what their learning goals are. Tutors are subject experts who undergo extensive training in the use of our specialist software and tuition model. We choose to use high-performing students because they are very competent in the subject matter, having recently done it themselves, and the children look up to them as role models.

• How long does a maths tutoring session last?

  A tutoring session with NumberWorks’nWords runs for one hour. Most centres begin after-school lessons at 3:30pm, but lesson times vary from centre to centre. If your child requires more time with a tutor, they can book back-to-back sessions in one afternoon, or attend multiple sessions each week.

  Each child has their own individualised learning program, based on the outcomes of the comprehensive assessment that we provide at no cost before tuition begins.

  Throughout the term, previous study areas are re-tested and revised to ensure learning has been retained, and children are on track with their learning. Some students stay with us for a couple of terms, and others choose to stay longer, setting new goals and striving for further challenges. If a child chooses to stay with us, their learning program is reassessed to ensure they remain on track with their learning goals.

• What age should you get a tutor?

  Tutoring programs provide help for children who need extra assistance with their learning and challenge students who require an extension to progress at an accelerated rate. There is no one prescribed age to start tutoring for your child. The age a child starts tutoring will depend on their learning needs and progression through their schooling.

  Some children need extra support early on in their education, while others experience difficulties later in their schooling. On the other side, some students may need extensions as soon as they start school, or this may come later when they develop heightened learning agility and outperform their peers. When to start tutoring for your child is a family choice, but NumberWorks’nWords can help with this process, through our academic assessment.
