 What makes Direct Coaching College tuition so effective?

There are many reasons why Direct Coaching College stands out. Firstly, we employ only qualified teachers who have professional knowledge and experience of the Australian education system and curriculum. That means that every student works face-to-face with a trained teacher.

Another reason is that an individual programme is designed to meet your child's identified needs so that, as well as learning new things, their existing skills are further developed. 

And a real good thing is that we create a positive learning environment to boost your child’s confidence. 

Our teaching methods employ instruction in a small group environment and a balance of traditional and modern technologies.

You're welcome to come in and see for yourself.

 Who will teach my child?

All Direct Coaching College tutors are selected for their teaching ability, and are matched with students who require that tutor's specialist expertise. The Direct Coaching College Center directors and managers are respected and competent educators who oversee the work of the tutors within the center.

 Can Direct Coaching College help a child already doing well at school?

Some children choose to strive for excellence and we are there to help these children do just that. We have many students enrolled in our programs who are already excelling at school.

The Direct Coaching College method of applying a wide range of teaching techniques and resources in small easy-to-master steps is just as effective at extending and enhancing the abilities of high achievers as it is in lifting the performance of students who need to catch up.

 Will Direct Coaching College tuition improve school results?

The main reason students attend our center is to achieve improved school results and we are pleased to report that we deliver those results. For us, it is a real joy to watch a child learn.

Our programmes are closely linked to educational needs and our professional teachers are aware of school requirements. These two factors, result in almost all our students making significantly better progress at school. 

We never forget that our aim is to give children a brighter future – and bring parents peace of mind.

 Could my child benefit?

We offer programmes for all school age children from Year 3 to Year 12, plus our center provides specialist subject help for senior class levels up to Year 12. Our approach works just as well for students who need help in their everyday schoolwork as well as students who are already excelling. That’s because all our programmes are designed in small, easy-to-master steps that produce results and because we use a wide range of methods and resources. Your child will enjoy direct teaching from a caring, fully qualified tutor who supports your son or daughter during every step of learning.

 How soon will I see results?

The progress children make varies from student to student. Many students make positive progress from the very first lesson while others take longer to show improvements. We will discuss likely outcomes with you during your child’s free assessment. 

We provide honest and regular feedback to parents as well as formal re-assessments - the results will be presented to you and you will be invited by our tutors to offer your comments and feedback.

 What methods will be used to help my child learn effectively?

Lessons are tailored to your child’s preferred learning style. Our teaching includes direct tutoring, traditional bookwork, audio work, computer work and regular assessments. 

Your child will benefit from mastery learning methods offered by caring and qualified teachers who ensure that students become more proficient and confident.

A key to your child’s ongoing success is that they will become more confident and will, therefore, always work at their best level. You can rely on the professional judgment and encouragement of our trained teachers who will be involved throughout your child’s learning with us.

 What happens at the free educational assessment?

Perhaps the most important outcome of this initial meeting is that it marks the beginning of a special rapport that will develop between the student and teacher. As your child continues to attend at the center, they will further that relationship and you will find that it leads to effective learning, increased confidence and future success.

Also at the initial meeting, parents and children have a chance to see the center facilities and learn how Direct Coaching College system works. During your visit we take the opportunity to find out how well your child is coping with their schoolwork and ascertain their learning preferences.

We also ensure there are no physical problems, such as your child’s visual or hearing ability, that could be affecting their progress at school. We are happy to discuss any of these issues and can offer a wide range of referrals that may help your child achieve to their full potential.

The information gained from this first meeting helps us set the starting level and scope of your child’s programme. After the assessment, we design an individual programme for your son or daughter.
