Are you happy with your performance at school this year? Would you like to do better? Wishing will not make it happen – you need to set some goals.Can you tell the difference between a wish and a goal? A goal is a result you desire, toward which you direct an effort. A wish is made by a person who also desires a result, but who really doesn’t believe that anything they do will help them achieve the result. Download the complete article.
Q. Why do you tutor students in small groups, and how can an hour or two of tuition each week possibly achieve the results we are seeking?
A. Learning is maximised when students are motivated, confident, calm and concentrating on the task in front of them. Our small group setting allows for the development of these traits and the most effective learning. The skills and confidence students develop in the small class lead to independent learning and the willingness to ask questions and get full value from classes at school. By contrast, one-on-one tutoring can be a quite intense situation. Sometimes students become dependent on their tutor, and are not able to perform well in the school and exam setting. If a child only performs well in a one-on-one setting, they will fail at school. Download our Learning Boost Article.Read more answers to frequently asked questions...
Pre-Kinder Literacy Program
This twenty-week program starts in June each year and is for children starting school the following year. The skills of phonemic awareness (sounds) and visual discrimination (letters and words) are learnt in a fun and supportive atmosphere. Children learn to read two-letter and three-letter words. The program includes writing, drawing and counting. Parents are very involved in this enjoyable program and are invited to attend the sixty-minute session each week with their children. There are also take-home activities that make it easy for parents to help their children. Read more about the Pre-Kinder Literacy Program ...
Selective Schools Test Preparation
Congratulations to our many students who sat the Test this year. We are very proud of your efforts to reach the highest level of which you are capable. Many students gained a place at Gosford High for 2013 and several gained scholarships to non-government schools. Year 5 students planning to sit this test in March each year should try to complete at least one full year of tuition. Over one thousand students apply for the 180 positions at Gosford High School each year. We prepare many students in our program that covers mathematics, reading comprehension, written expression, general ability and exam techniques. Year 5 students are welcome to enrol at any time. We are sorry, but we do not enrol Year 6 students into this program. More information about the Selective Schools Test Preparation program ....Money-back guarantee
Education First is the no-risk choice, as we offer you a money-back guarantee. We will refund all fees for the first four weeks of tuition if you are not completely satisfied. Since 1996 we have helped over two thousand students to catch up, keep up and get ahead."We wish we had gone to you sooner. We had tutors coming to our house and tried other education centres, but we wasted time and money. You achieved more with our daughter than all the others combined because you helped her to believe in herself." Read more testimonials from parents and students...
