How it works
Since early 2026 students in English, Law, Psychology, and a growing number of subjects from secondary school to University, have been receiving tailored, one-on-one assistance with exam preparation. This preparation is targeted exactly where it needs to be.
While free lessons are not run, a complimentary, obligation-free 15-minute chat with the parent and student is offered, to answer any specific concerns and see if we are a good fit for each other.
Typically, students who work with us have lost marks in earlier assessments, and the exam is therefore high-stakes. In other cases, the student (and their family) are aware of the need to achieve the highest marks that they can, and certainly within a specific range and seek out tutoring assistance in advance of trial and final assessments.
Your package
Each Exam Preparation package is customised to the student. There is no one size fits all approach. Parents and students can expect multiple lessons, scheduled at suitable times that accommodate the upcoming exam deadlines. In some cases, students have had 4 lessons in one week, while in other cases, weekly lessons are perfect for the exam schedule ahead.
In all cases, progress is evident and virtual (and real) high-fives signify happy students!
Exam formats
The most common exam types in Australia are multiple choice, short answer questions and essays. Exams can be run during a semester (such as multiple choice) or at the end of the semester (such as short answer questions and essays).
And, if you are studying online, your exam is likely to run through a Proctor System. Each university has their own procedures for this, however they are quite similar. If you are on campus, your exam is most likely on campus too.
