TUITION FOR ALL LEVELS
Tutorials are available for primary, secondary and adult students
PRIMARY STUDENTS
Your child may require help to catch up in reading, writing or maths, gain confidence and build a strong foundation.
Or they may want extension in their favourite subject, or one not covered much at primary school, such as science or coding.
Whatever your child's goals, our primary school tutors will guide your child through every tutorial through regular assessment and lots of encouragement!
More About Primary Tuition >
SECONDARY STUDENTS
Secondary school can be a stressful time for students, especially with regular NCEA assessments throughout the year. Fitting study in around sports and other extracurricular activities can also be challenging.
Whether a student wants to gain enough credits to pass the year, or is aiming for a Merit or Excellence endorsement, our tutors can assist to make that goal a reality. And of course we can also help with Cambridge and International Baccalaureate.
ADULT STUDENTS
As an adult student it can often be difficult getting back into study, as it may have been years since you opened a text book. You may also be tacking an unfamiliar subject such as mathematics or science.
On top of this you may be studying part time or extramurally, so it may a challenge to fit study around your daily life. Our tutors can help you streamline the learning process, so you can get through your studies with confidence!
MULTIPLE SUBJECTS
Our tutors can assist students with many subjects in each tutorial
- AHeadStart can assist students with 30 different subjects - Maths, English, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Science and Accounting tutoring, are just a small selection.
- Most AHeadStart tutors have strengths in multiple NCEA, Cambridge and International Baccalaureate® (IB) subjects, even including subjects as diverse as English, Mathematics & Science!
- Flexibility of tutorial structure means students can choose which subjects the cover in a lesson. This means tutors can prepare students as best as possible before each school assessment.
- Students benefit by having one tutor to cover several subjects and make the most out of every tutorial.
