Find out exactly where the gaps are
Private 1:1 primary school tutoring, Foundation to Year 9, taught online by a registered teacher. Every student is assessed before they are taught, so the lessons target the gaps rather than covering ground your child already has.

What happens after you book
Four steps, and only the fourth one costs anything.
- Step 1
A short call
Fifteen minutes. You describe what you are seeing at home, she tells you honestly whether she can help.
- Step 2
The assessment
The first session is a pre-assessment, not a lesson sold as one. It finds where the ground is soft.
- Step 3
A written plan
The gaps become a plan: what will be taught, in what order, and what your child should be able to do by the end.
- Step 4
Teaching starts
Explicit teaching, then practice at the right level of challenge. Thorough lesson notes reach your inbox after every session.
Nobody else teaches your child
All planning, assessment and teaching is done by the same teacher, for each student. She is a sole trader and she does not outsource any part of the work, so the person who reads your child's assessment is the person who writes the plan, teaches the lesson and marks what comes back.
Because the practice is small, she stays genuinely aware of each learner's needs, strengths and progress. That is the part a larger tutoring service cannot match: not a better worksheet, but a teacher who knows exactly where your child is up to.
What it costs, plainly
One teacher, one rate. Planning, resources and marking are included, and nothing is added later.
- $4530 minutes

The method, in five steps
The same sequence runs for every student, whether they are behind, at standard, or waiting for something harder.
- 1
Pre-assessment
Every student starts with an assessment, so the first lesson is not a guess. It shows what your child has already mastered and where the ground is soft.
- 2
Gap analysis
The assessment is read the way student data is read in a classroom: not as a score, but as a list of specific skills to target.
- 3
A plan built for that student
The gaps become a plan. It sets what will be taught, in what order, and what your child should be able to do by the end of it.
- 4
Lessons
Explicit teaching, then practice at the right level of challenge, drawn from a bank of resources built over years of classroom teaching.
- 5
Progress tracked over time
Thorough lesson notes are emailed to you after every lesson, with optional homework if you want it. Work, notes and assessments are kept in one place, so progress across a term is something you can see rather than something you hope for.
Taught online, and better for it
Sessions are only available online, over Zoom.
- Flexibility. Lessons happen from home, or anywhere with an internet connection. No travel time on either side, which makes sessions far easier to fit around school, extracurriculars and your own work.
- Genuinely personalised. One-to-one attention, exactly as it would be in person. Screen sharing, digital whiteboards and live annotation keep lessons interactive, and sessions can be recorded so your child can go back over an explanation at their own pace.
- Comfort and focus. Learning from a familiar room lowers anxiety and removes the distraction of an unfamiliar study centre. Students settle faster, so more of the session is spent learning.
- Progress you can see. Thorough lesson notes reach your inbox after every lesson. Work, notes and assessments are saved digitally in one place, so progress across a term becomes something you can look at, rather than something you are asked to assume.
What parents say
“Liz picked up on the gap almost straight away.”
We’d been told he was doing okay, but he was still getting frustrated with reading at home. Liz worked out exactly where he was getting stuck and gave us a much clearer picture of what he actually needed. He’s noticeably more confident now and doesn’t shut down when something feels hard.
{{TODO: parent first name and the child's year level}} “She’s much more willing to have a go now.”
My daughter used to get really upset when she didn’t know an answer and would avoid her homework completely. Liz has been incredibly patient with her. She still finds some things challenging, but she doesn’t panic anymore — she’ll actually sit down, try, and work through it.
{{TODO: parent first name and the child's year level}} “It feels completely different to tutoring we’ve tried before.”
We’d used a larger tutoring centre previously and it never really felt personal. With Liz, she knows exactly what he’s working on, what he finds difficult and where he’s improving. He feels comfortable with her, which has made such a difference to how he learns.
{{TODO: parent first name and the child's year level}} “The assessment gave us answers we hadn’t been getting.”
We knew something wasn’t quite clicking at school, but we couldn’t work out what it was. Liz took the time to understand where she was actually at rather than just going off her year level. From there the support has been much more targeted, and we finally feel like we know what we’re working towards.

{{TODO: the quotes are real and in her parents’ own words. Each one still needs an attribution, a parent first name and the child’s year level, which is what makes a testimonial credible rather than anonymous.}}
Before you book
Who actually teaches the sessions?
Your child's teacher does, personally, every time. This is a sole trader practice, not an agency. The same person who assesses your child plans the lessons, teaches them and marks the work. Nothing is outsourced and no part of it is handed to a university student.
What happens in the first session?
The first session is a pre-assessment. It establishes what your child can already do and where the gaps are, and that assessment becomes the plan for the sessions that follow. It means teaching starts from evidence rather than from a guess.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Thorough lesson notes are emailed to you at the end of every lesson, with optional homework if you want it. Alongside those, work and assessments are kept in one place and progress is tracked against the plan built after the pre-assessment, so you are not waiting until a report card to find out how it is going.
Are lessons online or in person?
Sessions are only available online, over Zoom, with screen sharing, digital whiteboards and live annotation. Sessions can be recorded so your child can revisit an explanation later.
What year levels do you teach?
Foundation to Year 9, across spelling and phonics, writing, mathematics, NAPLAN and PAT preparation, extension for high-ability students, and the wider curriculum. Music theory runs from Level 1 to LMusA.
Do you work with students who have dyslexia?
Yes. Spelling is taught through a multi-sensory learning approach specialised for dyslexia and dysgraphia, with an explicit and cumulative sequence rather than weekly word lists.
How do I pay?
Sessions are billed on the last day of each month, for the sessions taken that month. Nothing is paid up front, direct debit can be set up if you prefer, and packages can be arranged if you would rather book a block.
What is the cancellation policy?
Forty eight hours notice is required to cancel. A reschedule is available depending on availability, and make up sessions can be taken during school holidays. A forgotten session is charged in full, and your teacher waits online for ten minutes before a session is treated as forgotten.
Free, no obligation
Book the call. Find the gaps.
Fifteen minutes, free, and you will know more about your child's learning at the end of it than at the start.
