Nepean Tutoring’s mission is simple. To help students thrive.
Is your child’s love of learning stifled by the mainstream system? Or perhaps they’re having problems in certain areas. Nepean Tutoring’s personalised programs can help them become confident and engaged learners.
Our holistic approach bridges the gap between school and home learning. This can take enormous pressure off you as a parent or carer. Particularly if you’re worried that your child is having trouble shining in a system that encourages ‘sameness’.
The individual learning style of each child is at the forefront of our teaching philosophy. Our focus on a positive mindset allows students to gain confidence and self-belief as they work towards achievable goals.
And we know it works. Our referrals, testimonials and continued relationships with hundreds of families tell us so. Every success is a celebration for the child, the family and for our wonderful tutors who take enormous pride in helping your children thrive.
Our background and our present
Nepean Tutoring launched as a solo venture in 2012 with a vision to support the educational needs of students in the local Penrith and Lower Blue Mountains areas. We’ve now grown into an award winning business with 60+ active tutors, four administrative personnel and the ability to tutor up to 260+ students.
We’re also privileged to work with a number of Government Agencies, NGOs and various hospitals. And our team of Special Education personnel provide specialist tutoring for children with a range of learning challenges.
How we work
Our number one goal is to foster a desire for learning by encouraging creativity and individualism. Each of our tutors is mentored in this model of learning. So we don’t simply help your child to improve their grades. We encourage and emphasise the understanding that learning can become a lifelong pursuit.
Your child is encouraged to be curious and take risks to help them gain confidence while moving within the scope of the NESA curriculum guidelines.
Our first objective is always to understand a student’s strengths and unique learning needs along with the gaps in their understanding of key concepts. We fill the pieces of the puzzle so that the content taught in school is more meaningful and readily understood.
The relationship between child and tutor is key
Our team of tutors has diverse backgrounds and professional experiences.
They might be students who have recently completed their HSC and are now studying in a subject-related field or working to gain a teaching qualification. Others are classroom teachers, experienced tutors or university lecturers.
Our Philosophy
Central to our philosophy is the belief that tutoring is a heart-centred business. Taking time to know our students, listening to parent’s concerns and doing our best to work with compassion and respect are the most significant values we bring to our role as your child’s tutor.
The right ‘fit’ between tutor and child is as important to us as the level of skill of knowledge.
All tutors have Working with Children Checks and are carefully chosen for their suitability to work within our philosophy of teaching and learning.
Connecting through continual learning
We embrace our social media platforms and blogs as important channels for keeping everyone connected: parents, students, tutors and our own management team.
Continual learning and sharing should be a way of life – not just preparation for a chosen career. True success for us is knowing that we have helped to instil a desire to learn and grow in every child who joins the Nepean Tutoring family.
